Homecoming February 17-22, 2020 Homecoming Week was full of glitz and glamour as we rang in a new decade with the Roaring ’20s
theme. Flapper dresses and newsboy caps were out in full force at a number of events, including the Fashion Show, Murder Mystery and Speakeasy. The festivities culminated in a great Homecoming Weekend, with alumni returning to campus for the annual tailgate and basketball games. Saturday also saw a special reunion, with members of the 1964-65 Hurricane basketball team meeting up on campus to tour their old haunts and reminisce.
