It's the hottest parties, parades, pep rallies, drinks, food, and fun. It's time to "set yo homecoming out." All these things are expected when the Homecoming season arrives, but for many freshmen, college homecoming is perceived to be far beyond their high school expectations. For freshmen, Homecoming is anticipated to be the most memorable event of their college experience. Larrisha Washington, of The Panther, interviewed freshmen Ryan Davis and Ashley Riggs about their expectations for Homecoming.
Larrisha: What are your expectations of your first Prairie View Homecoming?
Ryan: I expect it to be exciting and hopefully way better than my high school Homecoming. My high school Homecomings were not all that great.
Ashley: I want it to be the best Homecoming that I have ever had.
Larrisha: What are your plans for the week of Homecoming? Are you going to any parties or participating in any of the Homecoming activities?
Ryan: I plan to go to some parties but I don't know which ones because no one is really sure of exactly what they are doing yet. I am going to the football game.
Ashley: I'll more than likely be at band practice all week, but hopefully I'll have enough time to go party.
Larrisha: What do you hope does not happen during homecoming week?
Ryan: I hope there are no fights and no shootings.
Ashley: I hope that there are no accidents, tragedies, or shootings.
Larrisha: What are your thoughts on Homecoming? What positive and/or negative thoughts do you have?
Ryan: I really have only positive thoughts. After all, it's Homecoming.
Ashley: I really just hope to have fun but I fear that something bad might happen.
