Homecoming 2002 Oct. 4-6 brings together Residential Life, other alumni

In 2002, the Choir of the West celebrated its 75th anniversary by being the first official "alumni affinity reunion" to be held during the Homecoming festivities. It was an incredible weekend for everyone involved. This year's affinity reunion will include all past members of the Residential Life Staff and Hall Councils. With this in mind, we have chosen the "The Greatest HOME on Earth" as the theme for Homecoming 2002.

This year we pay special tribute to members of the classes of 1952,1957, 1962, 1967, 1972, 1977, 1982, 1987, 1992, 1997 and all Residential Life Staff and Council* alumni. But remember, Homecoming 2002 is for everyone! We look forward to offering many of the popular events that have become a tradition during Homecoming Weekend and we hope to see you on campus Oct. 4-6. Here's a look at the schedule:

Friday, Oct. 4
You can attend a regularly scheduled class, register for the Athletic Hall of Fame Luncheon to hear firsthand about the accomplishments of the PLU graduates being inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame and attend the Annual Heritage Lecture. Finally, join us at the Homecoming Gala, where we will honor the 2002 Alumni Award recipients, enjoy a wonderful meal and be entertained by some of PLU's finest musicians.

Saturday, Oct. 5
Class reunion brunches, an alumni service project, the Golden Club Brunch at the Gonyea House, the Alumni Tent and the Lute football game at Sparks Stadium and the Class Reunion/Residential Life Affinity Reunion event at the Tacoma Country and Golf Club are just a few of the activities planned for Saturday.

Sunday, Oct. 6
University Congregation will certainly be one of the highlights of the weekend. We encourage you to end your Homecoming Weekend by joining the PLU community for this very special worship service.

* Residential Life Affinity Reunion information is being sent directly to past residential life staff and hall council members. If you have not received information by the end of June, please contact us.
