Undeterred by cloudy skies, CAES alumni, faculty, staff and students celebrate Homecoming 2018.

The Greatest Homecoming on Earth is approaching, and the CAES will host the greatest welcome-back-alumni cookout on Earth during its annual CAES Homecoming Celebration.

This year, the celebration is 1-3 p.m. Friday, Oct. 25, on the lawn of B.C. Webb Hall. In store are fun games; door prizes; great food; entertainment; and, as always, the opportunity to reconnect with old friends, faculty and students. The CAES also will have a table for donations to the college or the department or program of your choice.

The North Carolina Pork Council has graciously agreed to match all gifts, up to $5,000, to the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, received Oct. 12-26. These funds will provide direct support to the needs of the college. Please consider showing your support for your Alma Mater with a donation of any size. Share the opportunity and encourage your fellow Aggies to give. Let’s show them our AGGIE PRIDE!

Please pre-register. Alumni can show up without registering in advance – but those who do will receive a first-class “boarding pass” for the buffet line.

Initially, it was just a collection of lines, measurements and artist renderings drawn on white broadsheets, some of them coffee-stained, curling at the corners and developing small tears along the edges from being flipped back and forth. But after years of hard work, focus and dedication, the new 17,000-square-foot CAES Extension and Farm Pavilion is now complete.

Farming is in Millard Locklear’s blood. The Robeson County land he grows vegetables on has been in his family for generations. He grew up helping his father. Even as he built a career managing construction projects for a Fortune 500 company, he returned to the farm when he could to lend a hand.
