Three times a year, Friars unite across the country and beyond to show their pride and love for PC at Friar Days. Each event has a specific intent: to welcome, to cheer, or to serve.

On Feb. 6, Friars gathered for the second Friar Days celebration of the year and rooted on the men’s basketball team in its game against Villanova at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center in Providence. Game watches took place in 21 locations, including London, England, with Friars sharing food, drinks, and camaraderie.

Friar Days began in September, when hundreds gathered at various locations to welcome the College’s newest alumni, parents, and students. Friar Days concludes in April, when alumni serve their local communities in volunteer projects.
