Falcon Flashback: Decades Edition

Where Memories Soar Through the Decades!

The fall semester is here, and that means it's time for HOMECOMING! We are excited to celebrate the Falcon spirit with a full lineup of exciting events and activities.

This year's theme is "Falcon Flashback: Decades Edition". Be sure to follow Student Life on social media for updates as well! (@UTPBStuLife).

Be Part of the Homecoming Parade!

Join us for the Homecoming Parade on Friday, October 24! We are excited to have UTPB departments, organizations, community organizations and partners to participate in our Homecoming Parade. Whether you want to decorate a float or walk in the parade, all groups are welcome to sign-up!

If a student organization/club needs to decorate their float, they will meet in the parking lot next to the Founders Building at 10:00 AM on Friday, October 24. The parking lot will be blocked off by UTPB Police.

Parade participants will meet the HOCO Committee members there at 6:00 PM to check in. (Floats must be ready for parade)
