Get ready for a historic Friday night at Misericordia University! 🏈🌙

There’s plenty happening across campus before the Cougars take the field! Start the evening in the Henry Parking Lot with our pre-game tailgate and QUEST concert. 🎶💙💛

The fun continues near the field with free popcorn, snow cones, games, giveaways, a rock-climbing wall and more through the end of halftime.

At halftime, keep your eyes on the field for our Kick for Your Books challenge! 📚🏈 Three students will be selected at random to attempt a field goal for the chance to win their books for the semester.

Then, be part of Misericordia history as we celebrate the first-ever Friday night football game in university history!

Bring your Cougar spirit and join us for an unforgettable night under the lights! 🐾💙💛

A historic day at Misericordia University! 💙💛

Today, we celebrated Move-In Day and Convocation as we officially welcomed the largest incoming class in Misericordia history to our campus community! 🐾

From families unloading cars and students settling into their new homes to our newest Cougars gathering together for Convocation, it was a day filled with excitement, new beginnings, and Misericordia spirit.

Thank you to our faculty, staff, student leaders, volunteers, families, and everyone who helped make today such a success.

To our newest Cougars: your Misericordia journey officially begins! We can’t wait to see what this semester—and the years ahead—have in store. 🎉

🎓 We’re officially 24 hours away from Convocation!

Tomorrow, we’ll come together to celebrate the start of a new academic year and officially welcome the Class of 2030 to the Misericordia University community. 💙💛🐾

📍 Important location update: This year’s Convocation will be held inside the Anderson Sports & Health Center gymnasium, rather than outside at the Wells Fargo Amphitheater.

Can’t join us in person? We’ve got you covered! 🎥 Convocation will be livestreamed on our YouTube channel beginning at 2 p.m. tomorrow.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our SSC/OSD/CAPS Open House! 💙💛

It was wonderful to welcome faculty and staff and share the many ways our Student Success Center, Office for Students with Disabilities, and Counseling and Psychological Services work together to support our students.

From tutoring, academic coaching, and accessibility services to counseling, mental health resources, and wellness programming, these teams are here to help students thrive throughout their college experience.

We loved connecting with our campus community and celebrating the people and resources that help make Misericordia a place where students can succeed, feel supported, and belong.
