Dear C WHITT Sauce Subscriber,

I'll be keeping this blog really brief as you can see Howard Homecoming is dominating my attention! It's always a pleasure to return to my college stomping grounds where my interest in a career in communications was born more than 30 years ago!

I plan to spend the next few days catching up with friends, walking the yard, laughing and having a good ole time! For those who keep urging me to take time off and have some fun, this adventure is for you!

Shout out to my college bestie Kimberly Royal-Martinez for snapping this pic in the HU Bookstore. Stay tuned for homecoming coverage on my social media pages! "HU! You know!"

Meanwhile, please scroll down and take in all of the many events we covered and those that are to come. Take your pick from brunching to a comedy show to Stem and Treat, there's plenty to do!

Oh, and Happy Sweetest Day to my forever love! Everyone enjoy! - C WHITT
