Homecoming 2001:
Back in time

The rain did not dampen the festivities at the Oct. 6 Homecoming. The day began with the Alumni Association's traditional judges' breakfast for the Grand Marshal and the parade judges. This year's grand marshals were Miss New Jersey, alumna Julie Barber '00, and University police officers Paul Giardino and Chris Vidro, who assisted at Ground Zero in New York on Sept. 11.
