Homecoming
With the establishment of the football team Homecoming was officially moved to the fall where it had previously supported the school's varsity basketball team.
An attempt by the students of the University to entice a grassroots movement for support of NCAA football in 2006 led to multiple acts of temporary and non destructive vandalism across the campus organized in a single night dubbed by the organizing students as "viva la resistance." Since the Jaguar football team was established homecoming has featured an event called "junk the jungle," in which toilet paper and streamers are used to cover all the trees in the schools central traffic circle. It can only be assumed that this is done in remembrance of those student pranksters as this is identical to one of the acts they committed. Other acts committed that night included sidewalk chalk and window painting of various campus buildings and walkways featuring messages such as "NCAA football," "We Want Football," and drawing images of footballs. The schools track field was also spray painted with the letters "NCAA," in large characters. The individual pranks were conducted by small teams where the final act of "junking the jungle," included all the students invited to participate.
