Design the official Homecoming 2026 t-shirt!

Calling all creative Buffs! 

CU Boulder is turning 150, and we want YOU to help us celebrate in style. CU Student Government is hosting a t-shirt design contest for Homecoming 2026 — and your artwork could be front and center at one of the biggest events of the year! 

What’s in it for you? 

  • Your design featured on the official Homecoming t-shirt, handed out at major events 
  • A chance to build your creative portfolio 
  • Bragging rights for life 

What should your design show? 

Anything that captures the spirit of Boulder, the pride of being a Buff and the energy of Homecoming and CU’s 150th year celebration. 

Let’s make history — one t-shirt at a time.
