Actually, Colgate needed more room than the store on campus provided so it was also convenient to move down into the village. The competely gutted the old building and did a very nice job. The school also bought the building next door and turned it into a theatre where various functions can be held for students, alumni and fans. They use it for the arts, receptions and broadcasts of away athletic events. If you are in town for this year's FB game check them out. The also have a building that houses art studios located in the village as well as some offices for staff. Of course, Hamilton is small so they are still very convenient to the campus and the school provides a free shuttle for everyone that runs day and night to all these places.

I'm always looking for Holy Cross apparel, hats,etc. in the local shops. Sometime's (very rarely) Dick's sporting goods will have a basic T-shirt or a sweatshirt for sale. Book store hours on campus do not meet my schedule, therefore, I would welcome a Mall kiosk or similar. Lot's of Holy Cross fans, albiet dormant (unless they're winning), still love the colors and tradition. Many still talk about the basketball days with Vicens & Co. and the football days vs. BC, Syracuse, Army, Penn State, UMass, etc. Those were the days......

the bookstore hours meet noone's needs. Couple of Saturdays a year seems to be about it. Could someone please work on getting the place open...
