Hey Huskies!  Are you graduating in December?  If so, make sure you join us for Gradpalooza, a celebratory event where you can participate in fun activities, learn more about our commencement ceremony and connect with other graduating Huskies.

• Capture memorable moments with photographers ready to snap photos with Mission, Victor E. Huskie, NIU President Lisa Freeman, and Executive Vice President and Provost Laurie Elish-Piper. Feel free to bring or wear your cap and gown!

• Decorate your grad cap at our special station. Whether you want to go bold with glitter, keep it classy with calligraphy, or add a personal touch with meaningful symbols, we’ve got you covered.

• Check out the NIU Alumni Association. Graduate cords are available for a $10 donation and Class of 2024 shirts are available for purchase. You can also visit the NIU bookstore to purchase grad signs and gear.

• Share your gratitude with your favorite professor or NIU staff member and write a note of encouragement for incoming students at our notes table.
