Homecoming

Welcome Home, Hawks!

Homecoming is one of our favorite traditions—a time to reconnect with classmates, revisit cherished memories, and celebrate the Quincy University community that continues to bring us together year after year.

Whether you’re returning for a reunion, cheering on the Hawks, exploring campus with your family, or simply reconnecting with old friends, we invite you to join us for a weekend filled with fun, fellowship, and QU pride. Browse the schedule of events below, watch highlights from last year’s celebration, and make plans to stay the weekend with our recommended hotel accommodations.

This year’s theme embodied our Franciscan heritage as we celebrate the 800th Anniversary of the passing of St. Francis of Assisi. His enduring spirit and legacy continue to permeate the ethos and mission of Quincy University.

This year’s milestone class years were: 1976, 1996, 2006, 2011, 2016, 2021 & 2026.

We can’t wait to welcome you back to campus and create new memories together next year for Homecoming 2027! Once a Hawk, always a Hawk!
