Homecoming typically is a whole week of competitions and events, typically only Greeks participate (with a few other groups like Res Life joining in). Since there are 7 sororities and like 18 fraternities, each sorority is typically paired with 2 or 3 fraternities (depending on the size of the groups). The main competitions are:
* Window decorating: Each of the groups has to decorate a window in the student center in the theme of Homecoming for that year (i.e. Roast the Redhawks).
*Flag/banner competition: Same principal as the above, except you hang it in the stundent center over the stairs and it's typically smaller scale than the window thing.
*Roll Call: It's a dance/skit competition based on the theme. It's a pretty big deal between all the sororities.
and back by popular demand this fall is
*The Homecoming Parade and Float Contest:The parade is back, and the each of the pairs/groups creates a float based on the theme and they are judged.
