    <div><span>In 1975, a group of UMBC students came together to form the first Homecoming Committee hoping to bring tradition and celebration to the UMBC campus. Their proposed motto "It Feels So Good" was chosen for the campus' first Homecoming in February of 1976 believing that it expressed "the feelings of alumni as they greet old friends" and "the wishes of the whole UMBC community to enjoy the pride and the sense of tradition that other schools possess"  (1976 Homecoming Committee booklet).  Students, faculty, staff, administrators, and UMBC alumni were invited to take part in the celebration with various activities and events, including a pep rally, a mixer featuring band "Climb-A-Donkey," and a homecoming basketball game against the Towson Tigers.  </span></div>
