Louis DeThomasis, FSC, shares a laugh with Dr. Samuel Cascio '48, recipient of 1998 Alumni Appreciation Award, and his wife Rosemarie. Homecoming weekend has a variety of events for everyone to enjoy. It is a bond we share with other alumni, current students, faculty and staff that reaches into the deeper realms of our lives. It's great to walk down the halls and see pictures of my father on the wall. My father is 83 years old and he still comes back for Homecoming every year.
Homecoming brings back that coming home feeling.
It's great to see old friends and professors, too. Homecoming ties in that time of life during college when you go through so many changes and so much growth, with the family life we have now. And that, according to Satka, is really what Homecoming is all about. Homecoming keeps people from having to let go of one of the most memorable times of their life. It's a time for reminiscing about living in the dorms, barely making curfew, cramming all night for exams, and that 'terrible' cafeteria food.
