UW-Whitewater Homecoming Week

Reminisce with us as we celebrate Homecoming 2025 on the UW-Whitewater campus! This year's theme is Childhood: No Bedtimes, Just Good Times. We’ll combine old with new, friends with family, reminisce and make new memories as our spirited student and alumni traditions continue. Join us for the entire homecoming week of October 19-25, come for game day and cheer on the Warhawks, or just take a stroll through campus. Our schedule is packed with events — from talent show auditions to the Warhawk football game — so you can tailor your Homecoming to your liking. Follow along with the excitement on social media @UWWInvolvement.

Happy Homecoming, Warhawks!
