Virtual opportunities to celebrate Vandal pride
University of Idaho Homecoming pivots to mostly-virtual format

The University of Idaho Homecoming Committee has planned the 112th edition of the celebration since February. Despite the challenges COVID-19 has presented to one of UI’s longest running traditions, a transition to virtual events has allowed some festivities to continue.

The difference between this year’s Homecoming and the 111 which preceded it cannot be understated, though, 2020 Homecoming Chair Elizabeth Marshall said.When the Homecoming Committee first met, the members weren’t sure what the future held. They did not expect UI to transition to remote instruction and, at the time, they weren’t sure how long the COVID-19 pandemic would last.
