Washington, D.C. (March 22, 2016)- This year, Howard University will celebrate its 92nd annual homecoming celebration on Saturday, Oct. 22, 2016. For decades, Howard’s homecoming has been lauded as one of the nation’s premiere homecoming celebrations, and is credited for creating the homecoming blueprint for other universities to follow. 

This year the University hopes to continue on its archetype in a way that recognizes the past, celebrates the present and embraces the future.

The Bison will take on the Aggies of North Carolina A&T at 1p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22, in Greene Stadium.
