It’s NIU Move In Day!

NIU Students are moving in today, Friday, August 22nd 2014 and classes begin on Monday the 25th. All DeKalb ‘townies’ might want to stay away from the busy happenings on the west end of town.

NIU Families though, have lots of choices of things to do today. Below are two welcome events:

Family Resource Fair & Dinner

While students are eating with their new floor-mates, families can join us for a casual dinner prior to the start of the official Huskie Family Welcome.

Parents and families of new students are also invited to attend a resource fair at the NIU Convocation Center. Take advantage of this opportunity to meet representatives from many student support services offices and to grab a bite to eat before attending the Huskie Famiy Welcome. RSVP’s for dinner can be made at Orientation or by contacting parents@niu.edu.

Huskie Family Welcome

Friday, August 22 at 6:30pm to 7:30pm

Convocation Center 1525 W Lincoln Hwy

Join President Douglas D. Baker and members of the faculty and staff as we celebrate the beginning of your college experience at Northern Illinois University. The Huskie Family Welcome is the official welcome for incoming students and their families to Northern Illinois University.
