Classes to Visit

Show your panther spirit, and join us back on the College campus for Homecoming & Parents' Weekend 2021! Cheer on student-athletes, take part in a variety of alumni athletic events, and be among the first to experience the all-new School of Government.

Check back often for details and updates and make sure to follow along on Instagram and Facebook. 

Principia College has detailed protocols in place to allow for visitors. The governor of Illinois has issued an executive order that stipulates specific requirements for colleges and universities, both public and private, throughout the state. These requirements include the following:

  • Masks are required in all indoor, public spaces. They do not need to be worn when eating.
  • You must register each individual who will be attending the weekend.
  • Please respect a three-foot social distancing requirement.

Adherence to these rules will allow access to classrooms, offices and other academic buildings, dining hall, Chapel, athletic facilities, and other on-campus venues.
