Calling all Southeastern alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends!
Southeastern is celebrating Homecoming with a week of spirited activities, Oct. 12-17. Homecoming Day, Oct. 17, will feature time honored favorites such as tailgating in Friendship Circle, a spirit-filled parade, a wide variety of reunions, and football action in a bigger and better Strawberry Stadium.
Meanwhile, the Homecoming Week schedule -- which students will celebrate with a theme of "Roomie's Got Game" -- will encompass a ton of fun events from Gumbo Ya Ya and the Homecoming bonfire to the FE-Lions' annual luncheon and the Alumni Awards Evening's reveal of the 2009 Alumnus of the Year.
Come home for Homecoming 2009!
