Homecoming
The first Homecoming celebration at the College of William and Mary took place on October 23, 1926. It featured many social dances and a football game against George Washington University in which the Tribe prevailed 14-0. Over the years, Homecoming has evolved into a weekend full of activities including a parade with a Grand Marshall and prizes for the best student and civic floats; an annual football game; and class reunions for generations of William and Mary alumni. The exhibit features a selection of programs, photographs, and artifacts that document various Homecoming football games.
Curator: Hannah Craddock, Graduate Student Apprentice; Exhibit design and installation: Chandi Singer, Burger Archives Assistant, and Steve Bookman, University Archives Specialist.
