AROUND THE QUADSHomecoming 2006: Lions vs. Tigers on September 30
The Columbia Lions, led by new coach Norries Wilson, will open their Ivy League season with a Homecoming game against the Princeton Tigers on September 30 at Baker Field, highlighting a day of festivities for alumni and their families, students, faculty and other members of the Columbia community. The fun begins at 11 a.m. under the big tent at Baker Field, where alumni can mingle with classmates, other alumni and students. For youngsters, there will be a Homecoming Carnival set up adjacent to the tent that will include arcade games and amusements. A hearty barbecue lunch will be served in the tent from 11 a.m.– 1:30 p.m.; to purchase barbecue tickets or for more information, visit the alumni website. After lunch, Columbia will take on Princeton at 1:30 p.m. in Wien Stadium. This will be the Lions’ third game of the 2006 season, but their first against an Ivy League opponent following non-league games against Fordham and Georgetown. Football tickets can be purchased through the Athletics Office, 212-854-2546, or online. Columbia University Athletics is sponsoring complimentary shuttle buses to Baker Field from the Morningside Heights campus and from the Metro-North station at Park Avenue and 125th Street.

On Saturday night, Columbia College celebrates its black alumni as part of Homecoming Weekend with a special event from 7–11 p.m. at Loft 26 + Helen Mills Theater, 137–139 W. 26th Street, NYC.
