Homecoming queen and attendants, 1951

Title

Homecoming queen and attendants, 1951

Description

The Homecoming queen and attendants are posed next to a convertible. All of the women are wearing cardigan letter sweaters and mum corsages. They are from left to right: Bonnie Helfrich, Doris Blair (seated, queen) and Ann Bradley.
Alumni first began returning to Iowa State for an official Homecoming in 1912. Since then, the celebration continues to entertain both young and old Iowa Staters, with traditional events, including tailgate parties, fireworks, lawn displays, ""Yell Like Hell"" cheering competition, and mass campaniling. Currently, the Student Alumni Association Leadership Council coordinates the efforts of hundreds of students, who volunteer their time to help Story County Habitat for Humanity build a house.
