Gallery: Rain doesn’t stop the Homecoming Carnival

October 15, 2018 by Nicholas Cromwell and Brian Sweet

Fun games and food trucks filled the campus mall area and the SRWC for the Homecoming Carnival. Alumni, faculty, staff, current students, and friends and families were able to enjoy their evening on campus despite the rain before and after the event. Smiles and painted faces were all around.

About Nicholas Cromwell

Nicholas is a senior accounting and finance major from Dallas.

Being an accounting major, I don't spend all of my time crunching numbers but spend a lot of my free time outside, adventuring. Specifically I enjoy cycling, mountain biking, hiking, hunting, camping, sports of all kinds, and taking photos of these things. However, sometimes I also spend my time inside, cooking! I prefer to do my adventuring with other people who like to adventure because adventuring with people is much more memorable.
