Homecoming & Head of the Trent Rowing Regatta Weekend

Welcome back to campus as we celebrate all things Trent!

Celebrating 51 years of Alumni Homecoming

The Trent University Alumni Association welcomes you to celebrate 51 years of Alumni Homecoming at Trent! Grab your Trent gear and get ready for a full line-up of reunions, activities, live-streamed varsity games, live music, and entertainment. 

Trent University Condemns Irresponsible Behaviour

October 2, 2022

At Trent University, we were deeply concerned to learn of isolated unsanctioned gatherings in downtown Peterborough that coincided with the timing of Homecoming and Head of the Trent Regatta (HOTR) Weekend on campus. Images circulating show damage to property and disregard for the peace and wellbeing of our community and neighbours. The reckless behaviour that took place downtown over the weekend is completely unacceptable.

Trent University President Leo Groarke stated: “We are very disappointed in the behaviour of these groups and individuals and will be working with police and the community to address the situation. Homecoming and HOTR events were carefully planned and we were clear with students about our expectations before this event. We will be pursuing disciplinary action for any students who were involved.”

Stay Healthy & Safe During Homecoming and Head of the Trent

September 26, 2022

Both on and off-campus, we have a collective responsibility to be good neighbours. Trent University does not condone unsanctioned gatherings and we encourage you to find other ways to celebrate the occasion. As outlined in our Student Charter of Rights and Responsibilities, behaviour that causes disruption, noise, damage or danger to yourself or others could result in University sanctions or provincial/municipal fines. Stay home if you are unwell.
