"The dance is going to be a fund-raiser for the Salvation Army, and there's fund raising throughout the week at the halls as well," said Alicia Ellingson. Milford, Neb., senior
senior.
In addition to activities for
current members, some scholarship halls will welcome back their alumni with various activities during the weekend.
However, not all halls are as successful with fall event planning as Watkins Hall, and residents said difficulty contacting alumni was part of the problem.

Watkins Scholarship Hall residents have planned the most activities for their returning alumni, including an open house Saturday before the game when they will offer snack food and tours of the hall and campus.
Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall resident Robert Richards, Salina senior, said the hall's lack of activities was related directly to problems finding alumni.
"Homecoming is a good chance for alumni to come back, see how the hall has changed and catch a good game over the weekend," said Jennifer Scott, Manhattan junior. "Scholarship halls are tight and organized communities where people get really close. That's why alumni want to come back."
Other halls, including Sellards Scholarship Hall and Miller Scholarship Hall, emphasize spring semester meetings with their alumni.
we have a good relationship with our alumni and with our hall history," said Audrey Hickett, Hill City sophomore. "Usually we have an alumni tea on spring semester."
