Homecoming 2013 Decoration Contest

October 7th – 12th, 2013 is Sam Houston State University Homecoming Week.  This is a very special occasion which allows the university to provide an atmosphere of togetherness for students, alumni and the community.  The week provides a tremendous vehicle for alumni and retirees to reconnect to the university.  Homecoming Week is also a special way to showcase our beautiful campus, offices and Bearkat Spirit.  

If you wish for your decorated office to be judged, please enter on the homecoming website at http://www.shsu.edu/homecoming/contest.html by Friday, October 4th. The winner will receive bagels and coffee, compliments of Einstein Bros Bagels.

Please encourage all personnel to show their Bearkat Spirit by wearing orange during Homecoming Week and participating as a team to decorate offices in our Bearkat colors. 

There are many significant Bearkat events throughout Homecoming week.  Please encourage students, staff and faculty to participate.
