Signature Events
Each year we partner with chapters for five signature events. These events are important initiatives to engage alumni in their communities.
Game Watch Parties
Chapters host game watch parties in their neighborhood for Hokies to gather and cheer on our team. Parties are most commonly held for football and basketball games.
Welcome to the City
Welcome to the City events are held to welcome new Hokies to local areas. These events are held in areas across the country each fall.
The Big Event
The Big Event is an important campus tradition of service and giving back. Alumni have brought the tradition to local communities and chapters organize service projects in their neighborhood every April.
Remembrance Activities
To honor the lives lost April 16, 2007, chapters organize service projects and gatherings of remembrance in their community.
Student Send-Offs
Every summer chapters host parties to welcome the newest members of Hokie Nation and send them off to Blacksburg. Student Send-Offs welcome incoming first year students and connect them with local Hokies.
