Homecoming at Nebraska this year will be the 2nd through the 8th, with the game on the 8th against Texas Tech.
This years theme is "Husker Island - A Big Red Paradise"
Beta is teamed up with Kappa Alpha Theta, and probably at least one other chapter (maybe two).
Events for the week and how points are determined.
Fun Run/Costume Contest: Points for each runner/walker, and then points awarded for 1st, 2nd, 3rd of the costume contest (Each participating group picks a costume that every one wears - last year we got disqualified for being ninjas, because someone complained and thought we were terrorists).
Banner: paint a bed sheet. Points for first, second, third.
Blood Drive: Points awarded for simply signing up to donate blood and making your appointment - actual donation not necessary. Trying to really avoid the whole Mizzou fiasco situation.
Kareoke: Points to 1st, 2nd, 3rd in each category. Points also given for attendance, must have 50% of your chapter roster show up and sign in.
Step Show: Points for attendance, again requires 50% of the chapter show up and sign in.
Lawn Display: Build a huge lawn display with wood, chicken wire and tissue paper. Points for 1st, 2nd, 3rd.
Points are totaled for each division of participation: Fraternity, Sorority, Student Organization, and Residence Hall. All the fraternities and sororities take homecoming pretty seriously. The Student Organization category is between the Health Center Student Advisory Board, and the two Senior Honorary Societies (Mortar Board and Innocents). The dorms are always really random and really shitty.
