Homecoming

Marietta College is excited to celebrate Homecoming 2023, "Time Honored Marietta," this fall! This year's homecoming theme honors the 125th anniversary of "Time-Honored Marietta," our college Alma Mater, and the late Charles "Chick" Peterson ('53) work by the same name.

Students, alumni, faculty and staff, and community members can join us between October 20th and 22nd for a weekend filled with food, activities, and camaraderie as we cheer on the Marietta College football team against Heidelberg University. We'll welcome you all home to Marietta as we Paint the Town Blue for the Alumni & Friends Welcome and celebrate alumni from the reunion classes (2023, 2013, 2003, 1993, 1983, 1963), including the induction of our Golden Pioneers from the Class of 1973 at the Reunion Brunch on Saturday. Don't miss the Alumni Awards, Greek events, athletic competitions, academic program gatherings, artistic performances, and much more!

Please contact the Office of Alumni Engagement at 740.376.4709 or alumni@marietta.edu with questions or for more information about the 2023 Marietta College Homecoming.
