Homecoming.
It’s a ten-letter word that is synonymous to cookout, reunion, block party, celebration, and fun. At a historically black college and university (HBCU), very few experiences top the excitement and fun had during homecoming week. The multi-day festivities typically feature a combination of events that the school hosts to foster school spirit including a football game, some sort of celebration or fest on the “yard” or “quad”, a homecoming tailgate, fashion show, comedy show, parade, Greek-letter organization step show, and not to mention — tons of parties. Homecoming is a time for alumni to celebrate the memories gained and for students to strengthen their HBCU pride and enjoy the cultural legacy of its beloved institution.
HBCU Homecoming Dates (2017)
Because homecoming is typically a time when attendees fall even deeper in love with their respective alma maters, it can be difficult to “fairly” determine which HBCU has the best overall homecoming experience, so we ask you… which historically black college’s homecoming experience deserves to be called the best homecoming ?
In past years, nearly 100,000 votes were collected. Last year, Prairie View A&M University was voted number one. One year prior, in 2015, Alabama State University was named number one in 2015 and North Carolina A&T State University came out supreme in 2014‘s poll. Which HBCU will win this year?
