Coming Home Again,
1997 Style

 
 
Homecoming this year was, well, chilly. But the atmosphere was warm as fans bundled up to cheer the Ithaca College football team to a 40-13 win over American International College.
 
  During halftime a special presentation honored longtime IC football coach Dick Lyon, who served from 1958 to 1967 and under whom the team enjoyed spectacular success. Lyon died in 1976.  
  Other highlights of the weekend included alumni men's and women's lacrosse games; a Bombers barbecue; and "Dinner with a Roomful of Strangers," where current students met with alumni to discuss campus issues and life beyond graduation.  
 

All five of the College's schools held open houses; special sessions offered information and slide shows on the expansion of the School of Music and the construction of the new health sciences and human performance building.

The Ithaca College Sports Hall of Fame inducted 10 new members at the annual Saturday evening banquet.
