Although all grade levels and social service clubs select representatives to participate in the Oklahoma Christian University homecoming parade and during the men’s and women’s basketball games on the homecoming court, only seniors are eligible for the crown. Meet this year’s nominees for king and queen:

Madison Hagood

Q: How long have you been involved with homecoming?
“I’ve been involved in homecoming since sophomore year with club and I was a junior rep last year. My favorite memory was sophomore year when Theta was ‘Fly Me to the Moon’ and we got to dress up like aliens, and I think there’s still glitter in my hair from that. It was a really good time.”
Ezra Emerson

Q: What is your favorite part of homecoming?
“My favorite part is seeing the alumni come back and get to connect with current students throughout the week.”
Savannah Mathews

Q: How do you think being involved with your class has influenced your college career?
“Being involved with my class has influenced my college career because it made me realize I want to work with people and be around them. Being involved in campus life, whether that be playing intramurals or competing in Spring Sing, has motivated me to push through. Our senior class is pretty special, and it has been awesome to get to spend these past few years building relationships with everyone.”
Gary Goldsboro

Q: What is your favorite part of homecoming?
“When I was on the soccer team, we attended the pep rallies on Friday night, and I’d say that’s my favorite because it’s something different that [Oklahoma Christian] does as a whole.”
Rachel Parrett

Q: What is your favorite part of homecoming?
“I have always loved getting to know alumni. In years past, I have met several of the founders of Iota through alumni breakfasts. Talking with them has been very beneficial to me within my officer positions. I have loved hearing about their experiences in Iota and learning about what Iota was founded on.”
