CALDWELL, N.J. -- Today Caldwell University conducted its Day of Service, also known as Caldwell Day, an annual event in which students, faculty, and staff volunteer for nonprofits in their local communities and beyond, putting the university's Catholic Dominican mission of service into action.

As always, student-athletes were a big part of the day, with more than 400 giving their time on various projects, from helping unload and prepare food donations, sprucing up the Newman Center lobby and storages zones, putting a fresh coat of paint on the Cougar Enrichment Center study hall and more.
