On any other year, a crisp fall weekend would see thousands of family members and alumni visiting campus for Homecoming & Family Weekend. Sporting events, receptions, ceremonies, and outdoor carnival provide a backdrop for reunions, catching up, and touring campus. But, this year, things will look a bit different.
As many 2020 events have done, this year’s has gone virtual. Forced to change up our usual celebration due to COVID-19 gathering restrictions, we set ourselves the challenge of bringing the community together virtually. There is a little something for everyone! Students, parents, and alumni will find a variety of options to connect over this weekend. Perhaps learn something new, see old friends, or relax with yoga or meditation.
Some of our favorite events include:
- Virtual 5K Run/Walk Fundraiser
- Alumni Brewery Roundtable
- Athletic Alumni Receptions
- Virtual Panel with Ƶ's Academic Deans
- Internship & Career Center Sessions
- Office of International Education Open House
- Virtual Cooking Class from La Chanterelle: The Non-Traditional Classroom
- Virtual Art Exhibitions
- Live Concert
- Yoga
And there are many more!
Most events are complimentary and all are hosted on Zoom. , you will receive a dedicated link.
Join us from the comfort of your soft pants and slippers for Homecoming & Family Weekend at Home! We’ll look forward to seeing you on campus when the time is right. Go Gulls!
