For the first time in school history Appalachian State will not have a Homecoming King or Queen this year in an attempt to get away “from gender assigned titles”, according to a source with knowledge of the change.

According to information posted on the unversity website:

According to Appalachian State’s mission statement, one of the University’s goals is to, “promote a spirit of inclusion that inspires students, faculty, and staff to form relationships extending well beyond graduation.” In celebration of the University’s commitment to inclusion, we will be selecting 9 individuals who represent the best of the best that Appalachian State has to offer. They will be our Homecoming Royalty. Out of these 9 participants, the student body will crown one ” Top of the Rock”. Our selection process will remain the same, however, our pool of candidates will focus on who brings the most to our campus community. The homecoming committee is very excited to make these changes and cannot wait to see who will be crowned Top of the Rock 2016!



UT, how on earth did y'all almost lose to these guys?

Homecoming king/queen is dumb anyway, but this inclusion stuff is even worse.

Except for scoring more points, that's kind of a big part of the whole thing

Not sure if serious. In Boone, the hippies replaced the hillbillies as long time ago.

Can any of those douchebags explain how in the hell crowning a king and a queen for homecoming prohibits, or even discourages, people from forming relationships that extend beyond graduation, OR how NOT crowning them will make it easier or more meaningful?

This is just retards doing retarded things under the veil of being inclusive and open-minded. Makes me want to vomit.
