More than 200 Concordia alumni, faculty, students and friends got into the spirit of campus past on Oct. 2, when Homecoming presented Come As You Are, Come As You Were, a dinner dance to celebrate Concordia’s 30th birthday.

Held at Le Windsor ballroom in downtown Montreal, the 30th Anniversary Bash was an opportunity for guests to come dressed as they were in their school days, although only a handful had the nerve. However, when the DJ played songs from the ’50s, ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, the dance floor filled and toes were tapping.
