There’s a renewed sense of energy and momentum on campus that drives everything we do. We’re together again in classrooms and labs; filling the student center with activities; marveling at our performers and artists; and cheering on our athletes.
Our students continue to demonstrate an extraordinary eagerness to get involved and become successful, and they are surrounded by a community devoted to supporting them. You, our alumni and donors, play a leading role in this endeavor, and for that, we thank you.
This issue of Northern Now highlights NIU’s contributions to the understanding of the process of aging, a topic familiar to us all. As individuals, we mark each passing year by our accomplishments and the challenges we’ve overcome to achieve them. The lessons we learn along the way help us evolve and grow stronger. The same can be said for our great university. Standing together—united by a deep sense of commitment—with each passing year, we expand our impact and reach new heights for our students and the communities we serve.
