Homecoming and Reunion Weekend

Oct. 13-16, 2022

We’re ready to welcome you back to campus this fall. Whether you graduated a year ago, or 50, we’re excited to see you walking The Heart once again.

This year is especially exciting, as this is the first time in three years we’ve gathered on campus. The celebration is going to be huge! ALL Earlhamites are invited back to campus to celebrate homecoming, their reunion weekends, the inauguration of Anne Houtman as Earlham’s 20th President, and the 175th anniversary of the College.

You are now able to register for homecoming via RegFox. But in the meantime, start planning your visit! Hotels are already booking up in the Richmond area. We’ve created a hotel information guide to get you started.

Register for Homecoming and mark your calendar for October 13-16. Be sure to check this page often for the most recent updates!
