Three weeks until the homecoming football game. In the run-up to when toe meets leather against Duke, in fact one of our most-played homecoming opponents ever, the heat might break and fall may start to show in Atlanta, but the other things that change on campus in the interim - the pomp that is built and the activities that are played - keep some of Tech’s oldest and greatest traditions alive. Staring down the barrel of the first round of midterms can be daunting this time of year, but it’s the subtle shift that happens in early October each year - lighter diversions and good, clean fun - that reminds us of some things that truly make Tech unique.
