Jackson State University fans all over the country are gearing up to celebrate the 2013 Homecoming, “The Legacy! The Experience! The Dream!
This year’s theme was the creative submission of JSU alumna Angela Moffett. Moffett, a middle school teacher from Carrolton, TX, joined more than 100 people who submitted theme ideas in a theme contest started by Lori Stewart with the JSU Center for Engagement and Inclusion. Jackson State’s festivities will promote all that is great about our historic institution while giving pause and homage to our history and traditions.

JSU will host a series of week-long events beginning Oct. 13 that promise to offer fun, excitement and JSU pride.

Highlights include Midnight Madness, the Fall Gospel Show, featuring award winning artist Smokie Norful and our own JSU Interfaith Choir; the Homecoming concert will feature Grammy nominated Charlie Wilson; Street Jam 2013; a comedy show featuring Benji Brown of
BET’s Comic View and MTV’s Wild’ n Out; the annual Homecoming parade, Greek show, and more.
