Messages kick off Homecoming week

To mark the start of Homecoming week, UW student organizations painted messages on the windows of Memorial Union’s Lakeview Lounge and elsewhere on campus on Sunday. Homecoming. Homecoming events include a medallion hunt, spirit days, a concert and of course the Homecoming Parade — not to mention the games, both football and volleyball, on Saturday.
