Family Events
Join us for family events throughout the year. Everyone is welcome!
Gorilla Gatherings
Join us for a Gorilla Gathering near you to enjoy good food, good drinks, and good conversation with fellow Gorillas! These gatherings range from sit-down dinners with Southeast Kansas fried chicken to informal social hours and special events.
GorillaFest
Join Gorilla fans three hours prior to kick-off in Gorilla Village, east of Carnie Smith Stadium for the official Pitt State tailgate prior to all home football games! Admission is free and includes bounce houses, balloon twisting, food trucks, live music, Pitt State merchandise, and a pre-game pep rally.

Did you graduate 50 years ago? Join us for your Half-Century Reunion to celebrate this milestone anniversary! During the celebration, we also host members of the 55 and 60-year classes, as well as current members of the Half-Century Club.
Homecoming
Return to campus in the fall to celebrate with us and show your Gorilla Pride! Take part in Pitt State traditions like royalty crowning, Taste of Pittsburg, the Homecoming parade, and more before cheering on Gorilla Football.
Taste of Pittsburg
Kick-off Homecoming weekend at Taste of Pittsburg – a homecoming tradition favorite! Enjoy samples from your favorite restaurants, live music, and a special recognition of the fall alumni award recipients.
Great Gorilla Tour
We love seeing our alumni in the Four-State area, but we want to engage with as many alumni as possible. We've now hosted three Great Gorilla Tours - hitting the road and driving cross country to visit Gorillas! On our most recent adventure, we visited eight cities across five states in 15 days, covering 2,915 miles.
