\"\"<\/a>The annual chili cookoff, both a men\u2019s and a women\u2019s basketball game, the Alumni Achievement Awards and a Homecoming Dance will highlight Wright State University\u2019s packed Homecoming week<\/a> on the Dayton Campus Feb. 14\u201317.<\/p>\n

\u201cHomecoming is a time for current and former students to connect with each other and the university\u2019s faculty and staff and celebrate the Raider spirit that connects us all,\u201d said Greg Scharer, executive director of alumni relations.<\/p>\n

It is the second year since Wright State pivoted Homecoming week from the fall to the Spring Semester, aligning it with Wright State men\u2019s and women\u2019s basketball games while also allowing more student organizations to participate in activities.<\/p>\n

\u201cHomecoming is about connections \u2014 to one another and to our alma mater,\u201d said Courtney Laukitis, program manager for student organizations in the Office of Student Involvement and Leadership. \u201cThis year’s events are a chance to celebrate the Raider spirit that connects us all as students, employees and alumni.\u201d<\/p>\n
