Homecoming 2023: Events for Students
Looking for ways to get involved and celebrate Laurier’s Homecoming 2023? You’re in the right place.
Laurier Homecoming on the Brantford campus is this weekend, and we are so excited to celebrate 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 schedule for all events happening this weekend for our current students.

Finally, it is important to remember to stay golden this Homecoming weekend, Golden Hawks.

Most importantly, please think about your safety. Information about safe and respectful behavior, as well as police presence and fines, is available on the Safety Tips page. Be smart. Stay safe. Be respectful.
