From the Hill to your home, Oct. 12 - 18


Pouncer joins President Baxter for a welcome to campus

 

Tune in and take part in traditions and activities with your friends and classmates—without leaving the comfort of your living room. Homecoming 2020 has become a virtual celebration. Check out the wide range of options in the menu (and note that some events require pre-registration). All times are EDT.

Carol Howington Cain ’82 reminisces in the story above about how LC became her home. A fitting way to kick off our Homecoming celebration, her story can take you back to how you came to wear the red and black!

Well known for her portrayals of Rosie the Riveter and Marquis de Lafayette, as well as a popular guest at children’s story hours in regional libraries, Cain is a retired teacher, professional storyteller, actor and director, appearing in or directing many productions. But she says one of her favorite accomplishments is being a LaGrange College Panther, and she is thrilled to be part of this year’s Homecoming 2020 festivities.
