TSU Homecoming plans are underway
Texas Southern University has anchored Houston’s Third Ward community for 89 years.
The buildings, grounds, student organizations, athletic teams, professors and academic
programs have given TSU students countless memories of their time on “The Yard.”
This year’s annual Homecoming festivities, scheduled for October 17-22, 2016, with
the theme “ReMember the Times” will evoke those memories as the decade classes of
1936, ’46, ’56, ‘66, ‘76, ’86, ‘96 and ’06 will be celebrated. The classes of 1966
and 1991 will
observe their 25th and 50th anniversaries, respectively. If you or someone you know
graduated or attended TSU during those years and would like to be recognized, contact
Connie Cochran at 713-313-7606 or Tiffany Asberry at 713-313-1861.
“Texas Southern University has evolved so much in so many ways over the years and
so many people have such nostalgic feelings about this place that we wanted a platform
for the TSU family to relive some of those memories,” said Eva Pickens, vice president
of University Advancement.” “We want to bring back as many people from those decades
to “remember their times” on campus and share their memories with current students
to build that connecting bond.”
All Homecoming events – at the request of TSU students and alumni – will be held on
campus.
Scheduled activities for “ReMember the Time” include:
