Caldwell College Campus Goes Blue for Autism

College joins Autism Speaks Light It Up Blue awareness campaign.

Caldwell College was invited to join prominent buildings across North America and the world for the Light It Up Blue program to commemorate .

Sponsored by Autism Speaks, buildings including the Empire State Building in New York City and the CN Tower in Toronto, Canada — turned their lights blue on April 1 and April 2 to raise awareness for autism in communities.

At the college, the new state-of-the-art , the Newman Plaza, and the entranceway to the Student Center and Newman Center joined the effort by going blue.
