Couldn’t make it to any of the University of Missouri–St. Louis Homecoming 2015 events or want to revisit them? UMSL Daily has you covered. In addition to UMSL Daily interviews with the newly crowned Big Man on Campus and UMSL Homecoming 2015 king and queen, campus photographer August Jennewein captured dozens, if not hundreds, of moments from five of the week’s events. Below is a look at some of his favorite moments from those events. And visit UMSL at Flickr for many more photos.
