The University’s Family Weekend was Sept. 26-27, bringing hundreds of family members to campus and the community.



Nearly 200 family members, representing 17 states, attended classes with their students on Friday, and those families enjoyed a picnic lunch on the front lawn of Old Main. A bonfire that evening drew more than 400, with several winning UF door prizes.
