Payoff Season for Fifth- Year Seniors - Old Dominion University

H
This fall, let your love for ODU guide you
back to campus and enjoy the greatest
place on earth. We’ve worked hard to
put together a full schedule of activities so that all
Monarchs will find something to appeal to them.
And, I’ll wager
that you’ll find
quite a few
things that
compel you to
spend a few
days back in
Norfolk, or visit
campus again
and again if
you’re still in the
area.
Some highlights: a gathering for those who
were involved in fraternity or sorority life; the
Homecoming parade, viewable from the tailgating
lots or along Monarch Way; the annual
Alumni Honors Dinner. Of course, you can’t forget
the big game on Saturday versus Villanova.
Exciting events are still being finalized so make
sure to visit the alumni association website at
odualumni.org for the latest schedule.
While you’re at it, make sure to visit our online
community to update your contact information.
So, grab your GPS, program it for home,
and let your heart lead you back here. We
can’t wait to see you! For an up-to-date
Homecoming schedule, make sure to visit
www.odualumni.org. Some events have a
limited number of spots so don’t delay!
