Homecoming 2012 at UIndy, October 6–7, brought big wins all around, not the least of which was the Greyhounds’ 56-0 rout of visiting St. Joseph’s on Saturday night. UIndy went on to capture the conference title a few weeks later. Festivities this year included the Greyhound Village, which featured games, snacks, an inflatable obstacle course, carnival fun, and classic hits as performed in a pre-game concert by the Flying Toasters. An increasingly popular UIndy tradition continued Saturday afternoon with the annual Homecoming Golf Cart Parade, a whimsical affair featuring 32 lavishly decorated floats representing residence halls and student organizations. The carts toured campus and even traveled Hanna Avenue for a stretch. Campus groups and organizations competed for cash prizes, decorating their carts according to a “Hounds Around the World” theme. Cheerleaders and the mascot, Indy, led the parade, with President Manuel as the grand marshal. Be here next year!
