RUTHERFORD, NJ – Felician University hosted its highly anticipated annual Homecoming on Sunday, October 22, bringing together hundreds of alumni, faculty, staff, and students along with their families. The event took place on the Rutherford campus and offered a day filled with festivities and community spirit.

Homecoming showcased a wide array of activities and attractions for attendees of all ages. Guests enjoyed delicious food, live music, and a biergarten sponsored by BCB Bank. Children were thrilled with fall-themed activities such as pumpkin picking, face painting, arts and crafts, rock climbing wall, inflatable activities, and train ride.

Beneath the tents, alumni and faculty had the opportunity to reconnect and engage in meet-and-greets. University clubs and sponsoring local businesses were also there to participate.

Notably, the Finance Lab and the Nursing Resource and Simulation Lab were showcased, demonstrating Felician’s commitment to providing students with cutting-edge learning opportunities.

Originally scheduled for Saturday, the event was rescheduled to the Sunday afternoon rain date and did not dampen the turnout, providing a memorable day of family bonding and enjoyment.
