Homecoming is in full swing, and our Golden Bull alumni are back at Smith!
The JCSU National Alumni Association kicked off the celebrations with a Mix and Mingle event in the Innovation Center, bringing old friends together to reconnect, reminisce and get ready for a weekend full of Homecoming festivities!
The NAA also found ways to give back, hosting fundraisers to support the University while celebrating the friendships, memories and traditions that make Smith so special.
