Congratulations to the entire JU family and our partners on what was a memorable Charter Week 2017. Check out highlights from this year’s experiences and join on us from April 9th through the 15th as we celebrate Charter Week 2018. Go Dolphins!

​​April 16: Every year, Jacksonville University celebrates its birthday and the signing of its charter. In honor of our founding, the University hosts Charter Day, a daylong celebration involving service to our co​mmunity, a reception on campus, 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.​​

Because Charter Day falls on Easter Sunday this year, we're celebrating a little early, April 3-8.
