This year's homecoming celebration will take place Sept. 23-29, nearly a month earlier than usual.
Other changes for the annual event include a mural display on Davis Field.
"We have decided to take another path this year," said Carrie Burris, a public relations junior from Charleston who is Homecoming Commissioner 2007. "This year's goal for Homecoming is for it to be a campus-wide event. We want more organizations to be able to be involved. This year, we wanted to add new and simple events for everyone. Our theme is "Bringing Back the Spirit...A Throwback to Carolina Tradition'."
