Gallery: Freshman Follies continues Family Weekend

September 15, 2023 by Daniel Curd

The annual Freshman Follies returns again inside of Moody Coliseum for Family Weekend, showing on Friday and Saturday. Participants got to bond with other students in their halls, having to create, plan, and rehearse their acts for weeks at a time. The winners of the competition will be announced during Saturday’s football game, where the winners will get to walk inside of the Homecoming Parade.
