"Come Back. Have
Fun!"
Southwestern College's prospective students
are urged to enroll at the school with the promise of "Come Here. Go
Far." Alumni know how far they can go after SC, though, so Homecoming
planners are inviting SC alumni and friends to "Come Back. Have Fun!"
The annual fall extravaganza will have
something for every Southwestern alumnus and friend. Special events
will honor natural science graduates and classes that end in "01" and
"06."
More information will be arriving by mail,
and this year registration will be available through the SC Web site
at www.sckans.edu. Check back often for the latest in Homecoming news.

Homecoming 2001 will be a weekend you won't
want to miss. Among the activities and excitement planned this year
will be a new event, Moonlight Madness. Scheduled for Friday night,
Oct. 19, Moonlight Madness will combine music from the SC pep band,
a basketball exhibition, and a football pep rally to boost Builder spirit
for the Homecoming football game on Saturday. But perhaps the most exciting
moment of Moonlight Madness will be a spectator competition of the Great
Basketball Shoot-Off, with an opportunity to win a new $25,000 car from
Kline Motors. Raffle tickets for the shoot-off will be available to
students, alumni, and friends of the college. Come and take part in
the fun. and possibly win a new car!
