From Sept. 27-29, Butler’s campus welcomed students’ loved ones for its annual Family Weekend. The three days were packed with activities to introduce new families to the Butler Way and welcome familiar faces back to campus. Events hosted for families included a welcome reception on Friday and a Spirit Zone on Saturday alongside the Butler Football game.
