“All Beacons Welcome” Kick-Off Event

Friday, October 29, 5 – 9 p.m. – Harre Union, Campus Cafe

The inauguration weekend will kick off with the “All Beacons Welcome” event. This event was organized in part by student organizations representing diverse backgrounds and members of our staff and faculty. The event will begin with a show of Beacon pride across campus. A parade will begin at the east end of campus and pick up more and more participants along a designated route. Follow the music through campus and help us kick off this celebratory weekend.

The parade will end at the Harre Union Cafe where we will celebrate the beautiful mixture and support of different cultures on campus. Various cultures will be represented in food and activities. Music will be provided by our student radio station, WVUR. 

Autumn is a special time in many cultures. Join us at this culturally inclusive event that takes unique seasonal traditions from around the world and blends them into a uniquely Valpo event.

ALL Beacons are Welcome!
