Founders Day
Institution's birthday celebration
Founders Day is an annual celebration honoring the people who established an institution—typically a university, organization, or town.
Schools hold ceremonies, alumni return, and speeches commemorate the founding vision: The university canceled classes for Founders Day.
The apostrophe placement varies: Founder's Day (one founder), Founders' Day (multiple), or Founders Day (no apostrophe).
