How great was Homecoming?!
Through strategic room illumination, Mayflower Hall got into the Homecoming spirit with the letters IOWA appearing across the building's face. This display of school spirit was one of many highlights found during Homecoming week on the UI campus. Photo by Justin Torner.

Homecoming 2015 at the University of Iowa provided no shortage of thrills for alumni, students, staff, faculty, and the UI community as a whole.

Students took part in a large-scale game of Capture the Flag on the Pentacrest, and raised a ruckus through activities hosted by Recreational Services. Traditions were found across campus, ranging from a large corn monument on the Pentacrest to the spelling out of “IOWA” across the face of Mayflower Hall. (Check out a cool time-lapse of the latter on the UI Facebook page.) The annual parade was a big hit with young and old, and Scottish synth-pop stars Chvrches wowed the crowd with a free concert in front of Old Capitol.
Come Saturday at Kinnick Stadium, the Hawkeyes put another game in the win column, defeating the University of Illinois Fighting Illini, 29-20, behind a workhorse effort from running back Jordan Canzeri and another commanding performance from quarterback C.J. Beathard.
