>The University of Minnesota Homecoming parade will kick-off at 9 am on Saturday, November 1, led by Disney's Stan Freese and world-famous Disney character, Mickey Mouse. Stan Freese is a University of Minnesota alumnus of the 1960s and native of Edina, Minnesota. Freese said, "It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I am able to announce that Mickey Mouse himself has asked to accompany me to the University of Minnesota 2008 Homecoming Parade. It is rare indeed, that Mickey Mouse ever ventures out of his Disney theme park home, which makes this year's parade appearance especially exciting for me. I really hope the U of M alumni, students, friends and fans come out and say hi to Mickey and myself at the parade on November 1."</o
