History of PSU Homecoming

Penn State Homecoming 2007 is October 7-13. Learn more about upcoming student and alumni activities.

The PSU Alumni Association recently published this History of Homecoming in their Alumni Insider magazine.

According to the article, the first PSU Homecoming was in 1920--one of the most memorable seasons in Penn State football history. The Homecoming Game was a rematch with Dartmouth, who beat the Lions 19-13 in their previous match-up--"the only blemish on an otherwise perfect season."

For a blast from the past, browse the October 8th and 12th editions of the Penn State Collegian to learn more about the game and homecoming activities.

Football fans visiting Happy Valley this fall should visit the Paterno Retrospective in Pattee Library.

Going to the Homecoming Parade with my friends is my tradition. What's yours?!
