WSSU Homecoming 2022 safety message from Chief Henry
Dear WSSU Campus Community,
We are all looking forward to Winston-Salem State University Forever Red Homecoming which runs from September 25 to October 2. This year is especially exciting because it will be our first full Homecoming since 2019 and we are celebrating the university’s 130th Birthday.
Chancellor Robinson, Campus Police and Public Safety, and partners across campus are taking a proactive approach to ensure that Homecoming 2022 is a safe experience for everyone.
Plan Ahead: Download the Homecoming RAMGuide App
A huge part of being safe is being prepared and staying connected. You can download the RAMGuide and make plans, purchase event tickets, and connect with friends using the “Head to Head” feature.
Join Student Affairs, Campus Police, and Friends for “A Ramily Affair”
