Charter Day

Join us all week (April 8 – 13) as we celebrate Charter Day 2019.

What is Charter Day?

Every year, Jacksonville University celebrates its birthday and the signing of its charter. In honor of our founding, the University hosts Charter Day, involving service to our community, celebratory activities, and a Global Toast for our friends around the world who cannot be with us in person for the festivities.

Whether on campus or celebrating in your community, students, faculty, staff, and alumni are encouraged to join in the festivities, and wear your green and white with pride.​​

Schedule of Events

One day isn't enough to celebrate Charter Day, so we expand the festivities into a full week! Watch this space for a schedule of events.
