As a valued member of our alumni community, we cordially invite you to reconnect with old friends, reminisce about cherished memories, and celebrate the spirit of our alma mater at the Organization of Black Alumni (OBA) and the National Pan-Hellenic Council Black Alumni Homecoming Weekend. Homecoming is more than just a gathering; it's a time to honor our shared history and celebrate the journey that has brought us all to where we are today. Whether you graduated recently or decades ago, your presence will make our Homecoming festivities truly special. Check out the 2023 Photo Gallery, we can't wait to see you this year!
