The college will “be there for you” during Homecoming Week, Feb. 8 to Feb. 13.

The activities for the week will be based on the TV show “Friends,” a young-adult sitcom that had a 10-year run, ending in 2004. It remains popular in reruns.

The week begins with prelim voting on Monday located on Dragonzone under Campus Life.

Following the assembly will be final voting, beginning at 11 a.m. Wednesday and continuing until noon Thursday.

Wednesday night will include a “Central Perks” coffee and live music event at Metropolitan Coffee, at 17th and Lorraine. This event will last from 7:30 to 9 p.m.
