Homecoming Sparks Activities Across Campus

News subtitle

The ’24s and ’25s  joined in the parade through downtown Hanover, spirit stations, and the lighting of the bonfire.

Homecoming kicked off with members of the Classes of 2024 and 2025 donning hard hats and gloves to help build their first bonfire. The celebrations continued with Dartmouth Night and a lineup of long-standing traditions, including a parade through downtown Hanover, spirit stations, and the lighting of the bonfire. The rest of the weekend was filled with alumni gatherings, athletic events, and, of course, the homecoming football game. Dartmouth beat Yale 24-17 in overtime.
