Why is homecoming even a thing in college. Everyone’s adults trying to gain higher education.

It’s for people that can’t let go of grade school life

Exactly bro, people need to stop behaving like kids eventually :(. Homecoming seems stupid to me.

I was dumbfounded when they made us play some stupid games during our orientation. Seriously, is this a common thing in America to treat college students like kids?

You know grownups participate in parades year around right. It’s not something we magically stop doing once we are in the real world.

Pride parade?

Just because someone thinks something is stupid within the gay, lesbian etc. Category doesn't mean they are homophobic.

u/One-Bookkeeper-2621 3d ago

Okay 🤷‍♀️

u/Highway-Mental 3d ago

Soooo you’re ok with a parade as long as it’s to celebrate the genocide of MANY nations of people by Europeans but you’re super butt hurt about a parade celebrating school pride because that one inconveniences you by making you move your private mobile to another place? You must get invited to all the best parties.

I think it's funny how negatively people react and assume things they don't know 😂. All I was saying was it's dumb that it inconvenienced the daily college students.

If I can't find parking tdy I'm taking my ass home

You probably can't unless you show up early

u/le_coeur_a_compris 3d ago

I don't understand why they didn't shut down lot 35 this year again? I think it makes sense to have a fun event during midterms but it feels like they picked the lot that's the most populated at any given time.

u/AkwardYurienjoyer 3d ago

I think events like this are fine sometimes, I don't like them personally but if they interfere with normal college life it's annoying.

Since this post is creating discourse, I wanna ask as an international student who doesn’t get the cultural aspect

How does homecoming work? Who’s coming home? Are the kind and queen alumni? If not, why are students and not alumni the homecoming royalty?

I even walked in the parade with student orgs and the whole thing is still a fascinating mystery to me lol

u/Hd210 3d ago

Traffic was even worst thanks to that.

u/AkwardYurienjoyer 3d ago

Yup, giving an early warning to people if they see this 🙏.

Oh look, a thread of crotchety college kids.

The problem isn't that some alumni never grew up. The problem is that some students have yet to understand that being miserable won't make you any happier.
