Red, White, and Bison Homecoming Gala: Honoring Military Service

An Evening of Honor, Unity, and Purpose...The Red, White, and Bison Homecoming Gala is our first-ever event designed to directly support the incredible military members and their families within our Bison community. This is your chance to be a part of history as we launch a new tradition to honor our student veterans and distinguished military connected alumni.

Whether you're military-connected or simply want to show your support, everyone is welcome to attend. You can purchase your tickets or make a donation by visiting the official event page.

Approximately 60% of the proceeds will go toward establishing a military-connected scholarship fund, addressing critical resource and infrastructure shortfalls for the military-connected community, and supporting student enrichment and professional development programs.

"One of One: Howard University Homecoming 2025" will showcase the many ways the university is in a category of its own. Unique among the world’s colleges and universities, Howard has often stood alone as one of one— either as the only, the first, or at the top. The theme recognizes the fearlessness with which Howard has pursued truth and service since 1867, the relentlessness with which it pursues it today, and the invention with which it will lead in the future. “One of One” also references unity among all members of the Howard community in the perpetuation of the Howard legacy as we celebrate the 101st anniversary of Howard's Homecoming.
