"The University of Missouri started the tradition of Homecoming in 1911 when MU football coach and Director of Athletics Chester Brewer invited former students to "come home" to Columbia, MO for the annual football game between the University of Missouri and the University of Kansas. This tradition has spread throughout the world, but the University of Missouri still boasts the largest student-run Homecoming in the nation."
we have: house decs, parade, skit, blood drive, service, banner, royalty and decorate the district. homecoming is october 25th this year but it's already well under way as far as we're concerned. (we elected committees and got pairings in APRIL!).
does no one else pomp anymore?
