As Frostburg State University prepared for its 2012 homecoming events, many students were out celebrating homecoming a different way. On homecoming day, October 20, 2012 from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m., these students decided to join the walk for breast cancer in Cumberland, MD instead of trying to find an outfit for the homecoming dance. One of the people who participated in the walk was Kurtis Gorham from Baltimore, MD. Kurtis is a senior at Frostburg majoring in computer science.

On that very same day, from 6 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. , all of the Greeks from the "divine nine" participated in the block show. The gym was over crowded and family and friends who came late had to stand during the rest of the show. All of the Fraternities and Sororities who performed did an amazing job and gave the crowd a reason to get their adrenaline going. The NPHC block show was definitely a night to remember. 

Crowning of homecoming King and Queen

The FSU pep rally event was amazing as well, many students came out to support other students who were performing or participating in that night's events. Most of the crowd came out to support friends and family who were running for homecoming king and queen. A particular fan favorite, although he didn't win homecoming king, was Liku Waka. He's a senior majoring in Business. Liku is from Ethiopia and doesn't mind meeting new people from different areas.
