The full schedule, posted on the Homecoming website, includes a plethora of events, including the opening of the We, Native Deaf People, Are Still Here! exhibition in the National Deaf Life Museum, the healing and renaming ceremony for Building 103, and the annual Alumni BisonTank competition.

The Class of 1974 will celebrate its golden anniversary, and its members will receive emeritus medallions. The Class of 1999 will celebrate its silver anniversary. Several other classes are holding anniversary reunions, as are a number of affinity groups.

The traditional pep rally and Alumni Bash on Friday evening will set the stage for soccer, volleyball, and football games on Saturday.

Also happening during Homecoming weekend: The Deaf Studies program will continue its year-long 30th anniversary celebration; Nancy Rourke, who painted the new murals in the National Deaf Life Museum, will present about her work; and the LGBTQIA2S+ Resource Center will hold its grand opening.

In short: There is something for everyone! We look forward to seeing you throughout Homecoming weekend.
