Homecoming 2022 is for students too!

Looking for ways to get involved and celebrate Laurier’s Homecoming IRL? Lucky for you, you’re in the right place.

Laurier Homecoming 2022 is right around the corner, and we are so excited to be back on campus and celebrating with our current Laurier students and engaged Laurier alumni.

Everyone knows Homecoming is about Laurier alumni coming together and celebrating their memories of being a Golden Hawk; however, that doesn’t mean our current students can’t celebrate just as much.

Check out the HoCo Menu Contest, including the Homecoming feature items at our on-campus food service locations. As well as the schedule for all events happening this week for our current students.

HoCo Menu Contest with Food Services

From Sept. 19 until Sept 23, Veritas, Wilfs, and the Fresh Food Company will feature a Homecoming-themed item on their menu.

For all students who purchase or order this item, scan the QR code within the service to enter the HoCo Menu Contest! Menu items and prizes are coming soon!

Student Safety

Finally, it is important to remember to stay golden during Homecoming Weekend, Golden Hawks. Think about what it means to be a Laurier Golden Hawk, how you represent yourself to our alumni and the cities of Waterloo and Brantford, and the impact of your choices.

Most importantly, think about your safety. Learn more about safe and respectful behavior, police presence and fines, and the university’s guest policy.

Be smart. Stay safe. Be respectful.
