Making the social transition from high school to Georgia Southenr can be very challenging for some students. Here at Her Campus Georgia Southern we have compiled a list of things that you may have done in high school that you should never do in college!
High School Homecoming
1. What You Wear:
2. Budget:
You spend hundreds of your parents’ hard earned dollars on a tux or dress, food, maybe a limo rental, and whatever fees left that are a part of homecoming.
3. Beverage:
Fruit Punch or other simple juices/sodas
4. Transportation:
You desperately try to catch a ride with your friends or their parents while doing everything you can to avoid having your own parents drop you off. If you’re fortunate enough, limos are also a possibility. Your parents end up dropping you off.
5. Football:
Simple Friday night game no longer than maybe two hours.
6. Chaperones
7. Dancing:
Dancing usually includes a few slow dances to classic romantic hits, a little hip hop, rock and roll, and maybe the worm or the robot in the Soul Train line to top things off.
8. After party:
Church, breakfast, the usual.

Everything in a college town is, usually, close together. Walking everywhere during homecoming is a commonality. Drunk stumbling to the game is also good exercise.
5. Football:
All day Saturday. Most likely televised. No parking spaces, nowhere left to sit.
6. Cops:
During homecoming, cops are out more than ever. Be careful not to drink and drive!
7. Dancing:
Twerking. There is a lot of twerking.
8. The After Party:
Let’s be honest here, things get a little rowdy on homecoming.
9. The Morning After:
