This mascot represents them throughout the four phases, and is used regularly in conjunction with not only academics, but also intramural. Hockey plays a large part in these intramural, with rivalries coming to a head in a college wide round-robin "Challenge Cup", held in March of every year.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“To be born in a new country one has to die in the motherland.”
—Irina Mogilevskaya, Russian student. “Immigrating to the U.S.,” student paper in an English as a Second Language class, Hunter College, 1995.
“There is not any present moment that is unconnected with some future one. The life of every man is a continued chain of incidents, each link of which hangs upon the former. The transition from cause to effect, from event to event, is often carried on by secret steps, which our foresight cannot divine, and our sagacity is unable to trace. Evil may at some future period bring forth good; and good may bring forth evil, both equally unexpected.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
