September 18, 2013

The Residence Halls Association, or RHA, discussed spreading awareness on how student groups can get involved in the Homecoming parade during its meeting Wednesday night.

“This year’s theme will be Creating Spartan Heros,” said Ellen Evans, RHA’s University Activity Board representative.

Mathias Koller, adviser of the Homecoming Committee and Homecoming Court, said this years theme includes four new super heros, who “relate to what a real Spartan is.”

“This year we want to make (a theme) that (students) can identify with,” Koller said.

Homecoming Court is made up of 10 students who will represent the student body during Homecoming week, said RHA President Zachary DeRade, who is also part of the court.

This year’s theme is also will feature MSU alumnus and Chief Creative Officer of DC Entertainment Geoff Johns as grand marshall.

Homecoming will take place the week of Oct. 7 and will end on Oct. 12, when the Spartans will play against the Indiana Hoosiers.

“Every (registered) student organization has the opportunity to register to walk in the parade with a float or banner,” said Evans, adding that registration will be open until 5 p.m. Sept. 20.
