This year the University of Missouri commemorates the 102nd Homecoming by continuing to promote the traditions of our university and the pride of Missouri Tigers. Homecoming is a time in which students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members come together to celebrate Mizzou and its impressive history of excellence. Homecoming 2013, “The Black and Gold Standard,” showcases the rich tradition we have grown accustom to at the University of Missouri. Each year Mizzou students maintain and improve on traditions that make this university both an exciting and unique place to call home. It is because of the dedication of our students, faculty, and the entire Mizzou family that the University of Missouri can continue to hold itself to a higher standard in all aspects of university life. The Mizzou Alumni Association is proud to celebrate many events including the Homecoming Blood Drive, which is recognized as the largest multi-day drive in the country. The Homecoming food drives provide support to the Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri. Talent allows our students to showcase their multitude of skills and Royalty recognizes seniors who have given so much to Mizzou during their time as students. Campus Decorations and the Homecoming Parade are experiences that combine creativity and service to the Mizzou community. These are just a few of the many Homecoming events that help heighten Tiger spirit around Mizzou’s campus with each Homecoming season. All events that support Mizzou would not be possible without the time and dedication of our students. We want to sincerely thank you for your commitment, and hope you continue to carry on the same Mizzou spirit in years to come. Our dedicated students are the key to making “The Black and Gold Standard” yet another successful Homecoming celebration. The Homecoming Steering Committee has been working tirelessly in preparation for Homecoming 2013. We strive to make positive changes each year, and it is our goal to promote open communication. We invite you to utilize us as a resource whenever necessary. We are excited about the events and activities scheduled in the weeks leading up to October 26, when the fighting Missouri Tigers take on the South Carolina Gamecocks. Please use this rulebook as a resource for information regarding all aspects of the Homecoming celebration. Please keep in mind that these rules are subject to change. If changes are implemented, liaisons will be notified to ensure clear communication for all organizations involved. The Homecoming Steering Committee is committed to Mizzou’s Homecoming, and all participants. We strive to honor the University’s rich history through one of Mizzou’s most cherished traditions and we support the collaboration of the Mizzou community to promote service, leadership, and unity. We are truly looking forward to working with each of you!
