BLACK to the FUTURE: CBAC Homecoming 2026

Join students and fellow alums for events and activities beginning on Friday October 23 through Sunday October 25. Every great future begins with a story. This year's Homecoming theme, "Black to the Future," invites us to look back at the moments that changed Clemson forever and celebrate the generations who transformed those moments into a legacy of leadership, excellence, and community. Then. Now. Next. is our reminder that every chapter builds on the one before it. As we commemorate 63 years since Harvey Gantt's historic enrollment at Clemson in 1963, the Clemson Black Alumni Council proudly honors the trailblazers who opened doors, the alumni who continue to lead with purpose, and the students who will carry our story even further. Together, we celebrate not only how far we've come, but the responsibility we share to inspire what comes next. This Homecoming, we come together to celebrate our shared history, strengthen our community, and invest in the leaders who will write the next chapter of Clemson's story. More than a theme, "Black to the Future" is a call to honor our legacy while creating new possibilities for those who follow. The future is already being written—and together, we're shaping what comes next.
