With more than 1,000 alumni and guests expected on campus for Homecoming, the energy and excitement will be felt across campus. Their presence may also be felt on the roads, in parking lots, crosswalks, and buildings. Thanks in advance for your patience, and for welcoming alumni back to campus for this CC tradition. <\/p>\n

We also want to express our appreciation for the many offices across campus providing meaningful engagement opportunities for alumni through lectures, departmental events, athletic competitions, affinity gatherings, and more. It\u2019s going to be an action-packed few days and we hope you\u2019ll find a way to be part of the festivities! We have a full schedule of events<\/a>, including a few highlights noted below.   <\/p>\n

Want to volunteer to help? Review our staffing spreadsheet<\/a> or email <\/strong>homecoming@coloradocollege.edu<\/a><\/strong><\/a> to learn more about opportunities. <\/strong>  <\/p>\n

We hope to see you at Homecoming! <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
