Students Celebrate Homecoming

    

The Herd Comes Home

Two events – one big weekend at WPI! Join your WPI community September 25 – 27 for Homecoming & Family Weekend back on The Hill! Our vibrant campus will be buzzing with traditions, spirited athletic matchups, and fun, family-friendly activities that showcase everything that makes WPI special. We look forward to welcoming alumni, students, families, and friends to campus for this unforgettable weekend of connection, celebration, competition, and WPI spirit.

Recognizing Reunions for Classes Ending in 1 & 6

WPI now recognizes class reunions in the fall during Homecoming!

This change from our traditional spring class reunion celebration provides more opportunities for you to reminisce about the WPI you remember and learn about the WPI of today. We're creating an exciting new schedule that combines the best of both weekends, plus some new programs you're sure to enjoy.
