It's that time of year. I've got spirit, yes I do. We've got spirit, how 'bout you?!?! It's your college's homecoming week!!! Prepare for fun!

1. Crazy Fun and Free Events ALL Week

As a college student, were already broke as can be, so fun free events and possibly free stuff have our names written all over it.

2. The Overall Hype Around Campus

We though high school homecoming was lit. No. College homecoming is bigger, wilder, and feels like it lasts forever. Everyone even after homecoming is in a good mood.

3. College Professors Cut Some Slack

Not every professor will, but most professors will cut some slack or cancel class on Friday before homecoming. So if you're lucky enough to have one or two like this, enjoy it.

4. Homecoming Weekend

Especially if you win the homecoming game, the parties are crazy. Full of people, loud music, everyone having a wonderful time. Just remember to be safe and have a designated driver if you're going to drink. On bigger campuses, I definitely recommend having a party buddy to help make sure you don't get yourself into sticky situations.

5. You only get four

Like high school homecomings, there are only four chances to enjoy these as a student. So be spirited. Feel the pride. Enjoy each and every one of your college homecoming because before you know it, you'll just be another name on their records that received a degree from them.
