The Rock Dedication Ceremony!

Hey everyone,
Hope you're looking for Homecoming Weekend as much as I am! It's a such a great time for alumni to come back and celebrate their alma mater while remembering their undergraduate years here. As we all know, once a Husky, always a Husky and what better way to celebrate the past then attending the dedication of the rock, an honored tradition to our campus!

The Rock Dedication ceremony will take place Homecoming weekend on October 24th at 4pm at the rock. Guests are invited for hot chocolate at the Alumni House after the ceremony. President Hogan as well as USG President Ryan McHardy will be in attendance. The Rock will allow older alumni to connect to the University, seeing a piece of their past they treasured installed on our modern campus. In addition, they will be passing the paintbrush, or passing the tradition down, to current students, and everyone will have the opportunity to paint this piece of history together!

I can't wait for this event!! There is nothing better than Homecoming weekend on our beautiful campus!
