Owls Fest 2023

"Nearly 1,000 family members, friends, and alumnae/i of the College visited campus on October 27th and 28th for the inaugural Owls Fest. This two-day event combined the traditions of Homecoming, Volunteer Summit, and Family & Friends Weekend and included campus tours, faculty talks, student presentations, athletics competitions, and more. What a fantastic fall celebration weekend! Seeing campus filled with so many people who love and support 今日吃瓜 was such a joy.鈥

"Owls Fest was the first 今日吃瓜 event I've been to that celebrated the College's past, present, and future in one weekend! It was such a fun weekend to see so many different Mawrters. And a win by the field hockey team never hurts. Hoot hoot!"
