Welcome Home
Homecoming is a breath of fresh air for many 鈥 a wonderful time to learn more about each other and build community. Many of us students are so focused on our studies that we often forgo weekend activities, but Homecoming gives us a chance to explore new activities and meet new people. The best part is that no matter who you are or where you are from, there is always a group of individuals here to welcome you.
This year, I attended the Summer Undergraduate Research Experience symposium, the tailgate, and the football game. I was excited to learn more about the research my peers conducted over the summer. The symposium is an amazing opportunity to share these projects with the broader community. Especially with the new 鈥淒oing Our Part鈥 campaign, research plays a key role in the 成人直播 student experience.
President Herbert announced the campaign during the Homecoming football game. 成人直播鈥檚 unique character already attracts intelligent students who want to give back to our surrounding communities, and I firmly believe that 鈥淒oing Our Part鈥 will provide students with experience-rich academic and research programs unlike any other.
As a senior, my Homecoming experience was bittersweet. I had an amazing time with my friends and their families, but it has now hit me that this will be our last year here, at Homecoming, together. While my family wasn鈥檛 able to visit, I was still in good company. At 成人直播, your roommates and peers actually become family.
The vibrant atmosphere created by students, family members, community members, and alumni makes Homecoming one of my favorite events. I am so appreciative of all the volunteers and staff who make Homecoming weekend possible. We will remain part of the 成人直播 community, and I am excited to return as an alum!
