MANSFIELD, PA—Mansfield University will combine Homecoming and LUMA (Light Up Mansfield Again) into one weekend with a schedule full of concerts, athletic events and activities. Light Up Mansfield Again at Homecoming 2017 will be held September 28-30.
“Homecoming and LUMA are both great events, but we’ve heard from alumni and friends of MU that it is difficult to get back to campus for two weekends so close together in the fall,” Director of Alumni Relations Lindsey Sikorski said. “So we’ve decided to combine them into one giant celebration of our history that offers something for everyone.”
The weekend will culminate with the fifth annual LUMA celebration on September 30, when the Mountaineer sprint football team will take on Cornell at 7:30 at Van Norman Field.
Details on the weekend schedule are still being finalized and will be announced in the months to come at news.mansfield.edu, alumni.mansfield.edu, gomounties.com and on MU’s social media platforms.
