Homecoming

The Elon Black Alumni Network honored five members of the Elon community Oct. 22 during an anniversary brunch 

More than 2,000 alumni returned to Elon University for Homecoming 2016 to reconnect and celebrate. 

The celebration in the center of Elon University's campus featured the party band Six Stylez from Greensboro, food trucks, lawn games and inflatables. 

Alumni returning to campus for Homecoming had eight mini-classes to choose from in a new offering for 2016. 

Seven distinguished alumni received the 2016 Alumni Awards on Oct. 21 in recognition for their professional achievements, leadership and service to society

This brief ceremony will recognize Raymond Beck ’75, who has led the effort to return, restore and retrofit a 19th-century chandelier that once hung in the “Old Main” building on the Elon College campus

The purchase, restoration and installation of this piece of Elon history were made possible by the generosity of Raymond Beck '75 and his wife, Deborah.

The 2016 Alumni Award winners will be honored on Friday, Oct. 21 at 9:30 a.m. in the McBride Gathering Space in the Numen Lumen Pavilion. 

All former band alumni and their families are invited to The Cutting Board for an evening of reminiscing and reconnecting over a shared love of Elon and our band during Homecoming weekend

The new Friday night celebration is designed to cater to all ages, with a variety of food and entertainment options.
