The comedy show will include performer Chocolate and a surprise special guest. Chocolate has appeared on HBO's special Def Comedy Jam and both performers have been featured on Black Entertainment Television's ComicView . Semi-formal dress is encouraged for the dance, as the committee aims to create an elegant atmosphere and provide students with a chance to unwind and unite in style. The festive night has proven popular and successful in the past, so tickets must be purchased in advance and are predicted to sell out quickly. Tickets are available at Ticket Central in the Illini Union.
All events are inclusive and all races are welcome to come together in a social environment.
I have a positive attitude about Homecoming this year and hopefully this will be a time to get away from our studies and have a good time together. According to Stewart, the evening should raise students' energy levels and reflect a genuine University enthusiasm to celebrate Homecoming spirit together.
