Good afternoon!

Fall has arrived at Monmouth College!  The weather has turned brisk and the leaves are starting to change.  Students have settled in and are preparing for midterms and Homecoming activities, which will kick off in eight short days!

I look forward to seeing the campus full of "Red & White" and alumni excited to be back home.  I hope you are able to make it to campus for all or part of the Homecoming 2009 celebration, October 8-10.  Reserve your spot today!
