Every year, the University family gathers in Baker Chapel to honor alumni and friends of the University who have served ETBU in various capacities. Each year, we induct a new class of Golden Blazers, recognize the 50-year reunion class, and honor six alumni for their contributions to their alma mater or society. There is an honoree luncheon immediately following Chapel in the Great Hall of the Great Commission Center. Read more about this year's Homecoming Award recipients at www.ETBU.edu/HomecomingAwards.
Honorees and their guests will gather in the Great Commission Center as we honor the class of 1974.
There is a seat at the table for you! ETBU Students in the Honors Program invite you to pull up a chair, shuffle the set, bid your hand, and win some tricks! Everyone is welcome to watch. If you plan to play, please indicate that when you register for homecoming.
Come see what's new with our beautiful campus!
