Alum. visitors expected to increase

October 22, 2009

Alumni turnout for Homecoming which traditionally stands around 3,000 is expected to increase this year due to the historic nature of College President Jim Yong Kim's first year on campus, according to Diana Lawrence, director of communications for the Office of Alumni Relations. "We usually have about 3,000 alumni, but this year we're expecting a few more because it's Jim Kim's first historical Dartmouth Night speech and his first parade," Lawrence said. Before the bonfire, Kim will give his first Dartmouth Night speech, a tradition that dates back over 100 years. The Office of Alumni Relations will also host several alumni mini-reunions each day of Homecoming some of which will be attended by Kim according to a schedule of events provided by Lawrence.

Though rooted in tradition, this celebratory weekend evolves with each class and truly means something different for every member of the community. Upperclassmen: don't expect to relive the same Homecoming you loved last year.

By Kate Farley | October 22, 2009

So the other day, a '13 who shall remain nameless for his own sake asked me what "the deal" was with Homecoming. "There's like, a lot of big parties, right?" he inquired, the very picture of cherubic innocence. I'd make a worst class ever joke (Hi, sister!) but I can understand where he's coming from.
