Thank you for celebrating Homecoming 2024 with us!
Homecoming 2024 was one to remember! From October 3–6, the Saint Mary’s community came together to celebrate, reconnect with friends, and honour key milestones in Saint Mary’s history.
This year marked the 50th anniversary of women in varsity sport at Saint Mary’s—a proud legacy of leadership and achievement. We also celebrated the 60th anniversary of the SMU Huskies’ first Atlantic Bowl victory, a defining moment in Huskies history.
A special thank you to our Homecoming Committee for making the weekend a success, and to all members of the SMU community who came out to join us.
We look forward to seeing you again in 2025!

Here are just a few memories from Homecoming 2024
Homecoming 2023
Over the Homecoming 2023 weekend, over 2,300 alumni, friends, and community members came together on campus and online to celebrate milestones, reconnect and cheer on the Huskies. A heartwarming Golden Grad's class of '73 reception saw over 145 people gather, some for the first time in 50 years.
It was a big year for celebrating milestones at the university. Fifty years ago, the 1973 Huskies Basketball, Football, and Hockey Teams took home championships. Over 90 Alumni gathered in the O'Donnell Hennessey Student Centre for a 1973 Champion Teams Reunion, where they celebrated and swapped stories from their big year.
