<p>Hi Everybody.. As everyone get jittery abt the results( just a week to go) I wd like to share a poem with all of u I penned on Colgate</p>
<pre><code> Colgate
</code></pre>
<p>Harvard, Yale and MIT,
Big banners big names,
Hogging all the fame
They seem so lame.</p>
<p>Isn't there a place
Everyone a known face,
Eager to excel
To do well?</p>
<p>A place teeming with new ideas -
Not old formulas,
Innovativeness and creativity
Days full of activity.</p>
<p>Search for a college
A society of knowledge,
Each person adding a new dimension
Colgate, did someone mention.</p>
<p>Seeped in tradition,
Producing brillian academicians,
Lucky number thirteen
Life there can never be routine.</p>
<p>The first cheer,
"Yell high, yell great! Rah, Rah Colgate!"
'Pipe day', 'Salt Rush';
The long wait to 'Ring the Rust'.</p>
<p>The 5-minute rule
Is just so cool,
The willow path
Perfect to loose my heart.</p>
<p>Sports galore
The wild uproar,
Who needs a 'Voodoo'
Come and shout 'Hoodo'.</p>
<p>No need to search
Ample opportunities for research,
Then there's the Core
My inner self to explore.</p>
<p>Grateful alumni
Who exemplify,
The colgate educated
Hold the world fascinated.</p>
<p>The diverseness of a LAC
The challenge of a larger university,
Colgate has it all
Holding me enthralled.</p>
<p>A vibrant community
Living in unity,
Ready to accept
Hope I am adept.</p>
<p>This poem I have penned
Eager to attend
Colgate, a perfect blend
Where my college life I must spend.</p>
<p>I am an international applicant and getting real jittery waiting 4 this week to get over.
Best of luck to everybody.</p>
