HOMECOMING 2019 IS OCTOBER 5!
Join us back at Brandeis for the best weekend of the year! Our celebration of Brandeis Athletics will feature men's and women's UAA soccer vs Carnegie Mellon, individual team alumni games and fun for the family.
The day begins with our Intramural 5K Run/Walk! Registration is free and open to all students, faculty/staff, alums and guests! The 5k will start at the outdoor track. Registration will be available on the day of the event. Please arrive no later than 9:15am to register. The first 30 students to register receive a FREE t-shirt!
A little later in the day, join us for a petting zoo, pony rides, bounce house, ice cream truck and food trucks, starting at 11:30am near the soccer field. The first 150 Brandeis students receive FREE vouchers for food and ice cream. Food will be available for purchase to all other attendees. The Beer Garden will open at Noon. Beer is complimentary courtesy of the Brandeis Alumni Association. Additionally, the Student-Athlete Advisory Council will be holding a GEAR SALE of gently used Brandeis uniforms and warm up gear. All proceeds will benefit the Student-Athlete Advisory Council.
Homecoming is highlighted by our 20th Joseph M. Linsey Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, where we will be inducting six outstanding former student-athletes this year. The ceremony will be on campus at the Faculty Club from 5-7pm. Tickets for the Hall of Fame are $75 in advance and $85 at the door. Kids 12 and under enter FREE.
We will cap off the evening with a post-Homecoming Alumni Gathering at Joe Sent Me (849 Main Street, Waltham, MA) from 5-9pm. All Homecoming attendees are encouraged to join! Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door and include two drink tickets and light appetizers. All recent graduates within the last five years enter FREE!
