Whew! The ''Homecoming Week from Hell" has finally ceased. This gala event had group skits, amystery ball, a scavenger hunt and other events including the Jay Leno concert and a parade. Friday night's parade was a highlight. Many people came out to catch free candy and watch some floats. The groups went to a lot of expense on their floats and their hard work was obvious. Overall, Homecoming was lame. Some of the events were well-attended, some were not. OK, let's face it, MOST activities would have been deserted if the Greeks weren't getting points for attendance. .
