COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Get out your Purple and Gold and wear it proudly on Friday, Aug. 31, as it is College Colors Day -- a holiday designed to promote higher education, collegiate athletics and to promote the start of a new season.

No matter where you're at now, show your support for the Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles. If you share pictures on social media, use the hashtag #CollegeColorsDay to spread the word.

As part of the initiative, Tech Pride yard signs will be distributed at the Alumni Building, the Roaden University Center bookstore, the Hooper Eblen Center ticket office or at the Leslie Town Centre in the Cookeville-Putnam County Chamber of Commerce office.
