Most Masonic lodges don’t declare a particular ‘affinity’ or additional characteristic that is common among their members, aside from being men of good character who come together for the betterment of themselves and their community. In addition to being Masons, all members of Colonial are also a part of The George Washington University (GW) community — students, alumni, faculty, staff, etc. We continue the long history of Freemasonry at GW and incorporate the culture of our alma mater into our regular meetings and activities. Our shared connection to GW further cements our fraternal bonds and experiences. As a lodge with ties to academia, our members wear traditional academic attire in addition to our Masonic regalia.
