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.
