Homecoming

Homecoming starts this week Saturday, 9/23 with our Kick-Off Party on 12th Street Outside the Al McGuire Center from 4-6pm. The street will be closed for the festivities including food, music, and games. A limited number of Homecoming T-shirts will also be given away. First come, first served. Then head inside the Al for the 6pm Women’s Volleyball match against Georgetown. Students get free admission.
