Homecoming
The Northwestern Foundation and Alumni Association help Northwestern’s homecoming committee narrow down a theme that reflects genuine Ranger pride for current students, faculty, employees and alumni. This year’s theme – Together We Ride – was selected by the volunteer committee. When the theme submission time period is open in spring 2023, please use the homecoming theme entry form on this page to submit your idea for a homecoming theme.
“The homecoming committee chose this theme to continue the momentum we had from last year’s event,” Dr. David Pecha, general chairman, said. “This year’s theme encompasses the main goal of homecoming which is to bring all Northwestern students, employees, alumni and friends together for a great time to celebrate Northwestern with our Ranger pride.”
