An old tradition given new life in recent years, Homecoming is an opportunity to reconnect with old friends, cheer on the Maroons, and remember that rigor and discipline can extend beyond academia. Homecoming is an opportunity to reconnect with your UChicago alumni network and show your Maroon pride.
