Year after year, the first Greek Tailgate is a staple here at EKU, and today definitely didn't change that fact.

The Colonel's Cupboard Pop-Up Shop was a hot🔥 event, and not just because of the beautiful weather.

We love seeing students from all walks of life come together to explore themselves through fashion with their friends, and the Colonel's Cupboard is happy to be that conduit. What's better than a thrift store? A thrift store that's FREE‼️ So come out and see us in Powell 215 when you're due for a closet revamp.
