UC Merced hosted its annual Homecoming celebration last weekend.
Current and prospective students and their families, as well as members of the community, took part in the Campus and Community Showcase, including face painting, inflatables, information tables and performances by various student clubs.
Homecoming weekend also served as the 10-year reunion for the Class of 2009, UC Merced’s first full undergraduate graduating class. You can learn about their journey from first-year students at a brand new university to welcoming First Lady Michelle Obama as their commencement speaker in this oral history.
