CT State Capital

On May 15, CT State Capital welcomed alumni, business leaders, community partners, and supporters for the Annual Capital Golf Tournament, a longstanding event dedicated to advancing student success.

Funds raised through the tournament help support scholarships, expand access to education, and strengthen programs that prepare students for meaningful careers and service in our communities.

Events like this are made possible through the generosity of our sponsors, participants, and volunteers. Their continued investment in CT State Capital helps create opportunities for students today and for generations to come.

Congratulations to Group Sweeney for earning first place and winning this year's tournament. ⛳🏆

🌈 Happy Pride Month from CT State Capital! 🌈

This month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and reaffirm our commitment to fostering a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive environment where everyone belongs.

Looking for ways to celebrate locally? Downtown Hartford is hosting several events throughout June, across the street from campus, including:

• Hartford Taste Festival (June 5–7) on Pratt and Trumbull Streets, featuring food, music, art, and community activities.

• Capital City Pride (June 13), just steps from our campus, with Pride on Pratt, a family-friendly street fair on Pratt Street, followed by PrideFEST at Mortensen Riverfront Plaza and an evening afterparty.

• Salsa Social on Pratt Street (June 26), bringing live music, dancing, and community engagement to downtown Hartford.

As a campus located in the heart of Hartford, we're proud to celebrate Pride alongside our students, employees, and neighbors.

Our first Alumni WNBA Event is in the books!

This past Saturday, CT State Capital alumni, family, and friends gathered in downtown Hartford for an evening that started with reconnecting at Urban Lodge and ended at PeoplesBank Arena for the very first WNBA game ever played in Hartford. 🏀

The excitement extended beyond the arena, with a downtown block party bringing the community together to celebrate this historic moment for the city.

Inside the arena, fans were treated to an exciting matchup as the Connecticut Sun earned an 84-81 victory over the Los Angeles Sparks. Attendees also witnessed a major milestone when Brittney Griner scored her 6,000th career point, becoming just the 18th player in WNBA history to reach that achievement.

Beyond the action on the court, the highlight of the evening was seeing CT State Capital alumni reconnect, share updates, and strengthen the relationships that continue long after graduation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us!

To the CT State Capital Class of 2026; you did not just earn a degree. You showed up through the hard days, the long nights, and everything life threw at you in between. Yesterday, 444 of you walked across that stage and proved that dedication, resilience, and heart will always carry you forward. A historic moment for our Nursing program with 141 graduates, the largest class we have ever celebrated, and a proud day for our entire community. This is just the beginning. We cannot wait to see what you do next. Congratulations, Class of 2026. 💙🎓

CT State Capital recently hosted the Capital Career Advancement Program End-of-Semester Presentations, where scholar interns and scholar apprentices from the Travelers EDGE, LAZ, and Intact programs reflected on their experiences, shared what they’ve learned throughout the year, and discussed their future career goals.

Students also took time to recognize and thank Program Coordinator John Thomas, along with the dedicated partners from Travelers, LAZ, and Intact, for their mentorship, guidance, and continued support throughout their journey.

We are proud of our students and grateful for the strong partnerships that continue to create meaningful opportunities for student success, professional growth, and career advancement.

CT State Capital community came together wearing denim to show solidarity and support for survivors of sexual assault. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped us create a space of awareness, strength, and compassion. 💙
