Krupp College: The big red family with a phoenix as a mascot

Krupp works hard to be a homely, inclusive, and relaxed environment where everyone is welcome. You get the best of both worlds here. A calm and relatively quiet atmosphere but then turning it up during events and activities. Krupp has lots of lively, creative, and large-scale activities to take part in, such as big community dinners, acoustic nights, the Valentine's Party, and creative cheer-up activities.

The Krupp mascot is the Phoenix, derived from the passion and fire Kruppies show during college competitions and events. As a result, they are a difficult college to beat!
