As a student, I have taken homecoming more seriously. This year, I started shopping for homecoming at the beginning of September. I was not playing. I knew which events I was going to attend and which ones wouldn’t even cross my mind on the day of. Kynadi H.
Coming back and kind of just like taking it all in. You kind of appreciate it more when you come back because when you're an undergrad you're kind of running around and really just looking for the parties but this time you know you kind of take part in the parade and look forward to seeing old students and friends that you're cool with so that's the best part about it. Freeman H.
The camaraderie can’t be matched. Having former students return to SJGC to reconnect with each other and meet with current students is a tremendous time. Dean Mira Lowe

A Rattler homecoming is the ultimate reunion for FAMU alumni and students It's an action-packed week of events, great food and much more. My family and friends who are not graduates of the University attend and they also love it. Javonni H.
