Homecoming's special moments

Members of the first-ever Alumni Band perform during pre-game festivities on Saturday.

Deidre McVay, ’14, thought that she and boyfriend Taylor Schulmeister, ’13, were coming back to campus to celebrate the 95th anniversary of Alpha Phi Tau during Homecoming last weekend. The couple, along with alum Dennis LoConti, had taken the lead in organizing the event. Turns out Taylor was keeping a little secret. On Saturday night in University Hall – home of the Aps’ hall – he popped the question to Deidre, and she said yes! That was just one of many memorable moments that marked Homecoming 2016.
