Homecoming
Mark your calendars! Oct. 17-18, 2025
Homecoming is an annual celebration for everyone in the Albion College community–alumni, students, parents, and friends alike. It’s a time to reflect back on our fondest memories, to recall moving into Wesley Hall, painting the Rock for the first time, or spending late nights with friends at Baldwin or the KC. The weekend schedule – including Athletic Hall of Fame, class reunions, open houses, tailgates, and athletics events – foster reconnections and new connections as our beautiful fall campus displays our purple and gold spirit.
Join us for Homecoming, Oct. 17 and 18, to celebrate all that Albion College means to you!
Registration for Homecoming weekend will be open on Aug. 10. With questions, contact Alumni Engagement at [email protected] or 517-629-1835.
The Hampton Inn and Holiday Inn in Marshall are each offering an Albion College alumni rate of $129 per night plus tax. To book with this rate, call the hotel.
