Colman Cup is a long-standing tradition at the UTM residence where students compete in their mascot groups to win the Colman Cup trophy! It provides students the opportunity to meet other residents and build community spirit through friendly competition! The committee is responsible for planning and running these bi-weekly events as well as the year-end celebration and awards ceremony, Colman Cup Bash.

| Equity Outreach Network |
The Equity Outreach Network (EON) values diversity as a strength in order to center equity and inclusion as prioritized values on residence. We aim to recruit a team that is passionate about these shared values and are committed to amplifying student voices, particularly underrepresented and equity-seeking individuals. In taking a more focused approach, PRISM provides a safe space for self-identifying QTBIPOC students, The Kickback supports self-identifying Black students living in residence, and Umbrella creates a network for self-identifying LGBT2Q+ students. |
