Cavalier Pride Week 2025

Cavalier Pride Week 2025

Cavalier Pride Week is an annual celebration for students, staff, alumni, and the community to celebrate everything Western. Hosted every year in the Fall, Cavalier Pride Week is a special time to come together and celebrate those who represent the Western Cavaliers. This week is filled with fun events for the greater Western Community to participate in. Whether you are catching one of the athletics events or attending an event on campus, Cavalier Pride Week has something for you! 

Cavalier Pride Week 2025 Theme: “Our Way”

This year, Cavalier Pride Week is all about celebrating what makes us us. “Our Way” is more than a theme—it’s a declaration of identity, unity, and purpose. It reflects the values that guide our school, our teams, and our community. "Our Way" demonstrates the Cavalier Pride in being innovative with outside-the-box thinking that ensures Western is the college of first choice in our region.

“Our Way” means:

  • Leading with pride in who we are and where we come from
  • Supporting one another with respect, kindness, and loyalty
  • Pushing boundaries and striving for excellence in everything we do
  • Owning our journey—the wins, the challenges, and the growth
  • Showing up every day with heart, hustle, and humility

Whether you're in the classroom, on the field, in the stands, or out in the community, Our Way is how we represent the Cavalier spirit. It’s how we rise, how we lead, and how we leave our mark.
