About the University of Delaware:

Tracing its heritage back to 1743, the University of Delaware is a state-assisted, privately controlled institution with an enrollment of more than 16,000 + undergraduates, 3,500 + graduate students and 1,000 + continuing education students. UD offers degrees in a broad range of disciplines across seven colleges, and is a land-grant, sea-grant and space-grant institution. The University is classified by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a research university with very high research activity-a designation accorded fewer than 3 percent of U.S. colleges and universities. UD intercollegiate athletics fields 23 teams with more than 650 student-athletes. UD recreation services provide support for club, intramural and recreation activities for more than half of the student body.

The school colors for University of Delaware are blue and yellow-gold. The faculty of Delaware College first chose blue and gold as the college colors in 1889. This decision may have come in connection with the development of team sports, for this same fall was the first football season. The colors adopted were those of the state of Delaware. The Delaware state flag, officially adopted in 1913, has a buff-colored diamond with the coat of arms, surrounded by a background of colonial blue. According to the original designers of the flag, the shades of buff and colonial blue represent the colors of General George Washington's uniform. Blue and gold are also the colors of Sweden, from which Delaware's first permanent colonists came.
