It’s Florida Poly Spirit Week!

This notice appeared in the Weekly Phoenix between September 15, 2025 and September 19, 2025.

Florida Poly Spirit Week is here! We’re in the middle of five fun-filled days of activities, bringing our campus to life with energy, creativity and a whole lot of Phoenix Pride. Spirit Week brings our community together through themed dress-up days, photo opportunities and a shared sense of engagement.

Each day features a different theme, encouraging students, faculty and staff to show off their spirit in unique ways.

Spirit Week Themes

  • Sept. 17: Decades Day. Don your best duds to represent a blast from the past – think 1950s, ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, ’90s or early 2000s.
  • Sept. 18: Science Fiction Day. We’re celebrating all things out of this world. Space explorers, futuristic technology, aliens, robots or iconic sci-fi movies and TV shows.
  • Sept. 19: Purple Pride Day. Wear your Florida Poly colors or gear and show your Purple Pride loud and proud!

Spirit Week isn’t just about fun outfits; it’s about fostering engagement and creating lasting memories. This is a great opportunity to connect, engage and celebrate all the things that make Florida Poly unique.

Start planning your outfits, gather your crew, and get ready to show your spirit!

The Campus Store will offer students a 10% discount on Florida Poly apparel on Friday, Sept. 19, only. Students must present their University ID to qualify.

Spirit Week Guidelines: Let’s keep It Fun and Appropriate

  • Keep it professional: Costumes should be modest and appropriate for a shared work environment. Avoid overly revealing, sheer or offensive clothing.
  • Footwear matters: Please, no bare feet.
  • Participation is completely optional.

The event is hosted by the Employee Engagement Team in partnership with SGA.
