It's that time of year again! Who are you paired with? What events are there? Did you win anything?

We are paired with Delta Tau Delta & Alpha Tau Omega!

Our homecoming events are:

*Roll Call Dance
*Window Decorating (basically decorating a Student Center window with a posterboard).
*Banner contest

Good luck everyone!

Homecoming is on my Birthday this Year! I Love that. It will be the biggest birthday party of my life thanks to the undergrads. I will be the King of the Hill, litteraly, because Radford, my Alma Mater, has hills.

I look forward to rolling beer kegs down the hill, and otherwise setting a horrible example as an alumnus. Don't do what Donny Don't does.

I'm looking forward to Homecoming more than any other weekend next month.

Homecoming is also on MY birthday so I'msuper excited.... and it will probably get ridiculous.
My sorority usually has a float in the parade so I will probably have to start the day off there.
We are paired with Fiji this year so it should be a lot of fun!

We are doing Tarzan theme for our float and we are working with Acacia, Sigma Tau Gamma, & Alpha Xi Delta. I'm pretty excited!!
I'm homecoming chair, so hopefully all goes well.

Homecoming is next weekend at Elon. We don't do the pairing up thing, but Alpha Chi has done well and even won in past years. I'm excited to go back and meet the new members and hang out

I'm one of the two homecoming chairs for my APO chapter. We're pairing with Phi Sigma Pi. Homecoming isn't til the week of 10/22-10/29 but we're already going insane.

What do you mean by pairing?

Usually a fraternity and sorority are paired together to compete in the Homecoming competitions. Each school usually has different events. For example, we have a Dance competition, a banner contst and a window painting contest. Hope this helps!

A lot. Thanks. I thought it was a question about who you'd be playing for the game. I don't think we pair with anyone. Too bad, it sounds like fun.

Our chapters don't pair up for Homecoming, but since part of my job is coordinating all of the Homecoming events, I just can't wait til it's over!

KSUViolet06 · #14 09-16-2005, 10:49 PM

Update- our BANNER won 3rd place

At my school, homecoming is a contest where you stay up all night making a float with a skit on it for the parade. Most of the fraternities and sororities are paired up and it is a decent, but tiring, time.
