Homecoming

-


Five people—four women and one man—smile as they pose outdoors next to a large white pop-up banner on a sunny campus. The banner features the USMMA Alumni Association and Foundation logo and reads, "HOMECOMING WELCOME BACK ALUMNI!" in bold blue lettering. The group is dressed in casual weekend attire, with one woman proudly wearing a blue "USMMA Alumni" sweatshirt. Trees, a paved walkway, and parked cars are visible in the background.

Homecoming at the United States Merchant Marine Academy is a time-honored tradition that brings alumni, families, and friends back to the Kings Point campus to celebrate the institution's rich heritage. The vibrant weekend is typically highlighted by the Regimental Parade, alumni gatherings, and a much-anticipated Mariners football game at Tomb Field. More than just a festive reunion, Homecoming serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring bond among those who live by the motto Acta Non Verba. By connecting current midshipmen with generations of past graduates who have successfully served the nation's commercial fleet and armed forces, the event reinforces the Academy's vital maritime mission and inspires the next generation of Merchant Marine Officers.
