Homecoming 2011 | October 7–9

Eagles, Fly Home—See the Brand New Nest

Coming home to Northwestern will be extra special this year as we celebrate the Grand Opening of the Billy Graham Community Life Commons. In its history, Northwestern has never had such a beautiful, functional and important central gathering place for our community and we want all alumni who have at one time called NWC "home" to join us for the celebration.

Join us October 7–9 for this year's lineup of Homecoming activities for all ages. Take in the Grand Opening, family fun activities, sports, and many other traditional Homecoming happenings.

Explore the information below for Homecoming details or make a straight line "as the Eagle flies" to pre-register for events or purchase tickets through our secure ticketing website.
