BOSSIP’s 2025 HBCU Homecoming Guide
It's officially HBCU HOMECOMING season, and if you know, you know; No one is celebrating Legacy, culture, and community, and common as our beloved historical black colleges and universities!
The first wave of Black Times with Alabama State, Johnson C. Smith, Fort Valley State, and South Carolina State already with the are, reunions, and fools worthy of NYFW.
Speak Fashion – Yes, we just packed new York Fashion Week and slipped right in Atl Mashion WeekBut nothing compares to the runway that is homme.
This is the season where your Alma mater is your fashion house, the tailgate doubles as a block party, and legacy meets LIFYYLE.
For the first time since I graduated from Hampton University, which I did not make the journey back to my garden – bittersweet, but free. Still, if my feed is every indication, the Homecoming Energy is live and prosperous of DC to the deep south.
With Marquee Matchups like Howard Vs. Morgan State, Hampton vs. Monmouth vs. FAMU VS. 0c & T vs. South Carolina State, there is no shortage of campuses to call home. I have walked the Yards of Norfolk State, Playhouse, A & T, and Howard; So trust me, I know the vibes, the fits, and the community.
Whether you are back to your Alma Mater or hopplle's to someone else, this is your guide to exclude HBCU Homecoming 2025 in style.

Memories you will never forget
Homecoming is not just a weekend. It's a rhythm, a runway, and a reunion in one rolled. Whether you are in Greensboro in Greensboro, break in DC, partying in Houston, or donate from your phone – you have part of the legacy.
As Hampton, I will carry that tradition: look good, return to it, and appear – on the garden, online, or in mind.
