GLENVILLE, WV – In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the Mountain East Conference’s (MEC) recent decision to cancel the fall 2020 sports season, 鶹ƵState College (GSC) will postpone the annual 鶹Ƶcoming Celebration that was scheduled for October 2-4.

“We understand that the yearly return to campus for homecoming festivities is a highlight of the year for many GSC alumni and fans,” said Conner Ferguson, GSC Director of Alumni Relations. “While we know this decision will disappoint many Pioneers, we want to ensure 鶹Ƶcoming events can be enjoyed safely and by all students, alumni, and fans.”

Plans for 鶹ƵState’s spring 2021 鶹Ƶcoming will be made available when more information is released from the MEC regarding the restart of sports in the spring.

GSC alumni and friends are encouraged to watch for upcoming virtual events as a way to stay engaged with the College and campus community throughout the pandemic.
