Ohio Northern University Homecoming 2013

3 1 0 2 , 0 2 8 1 R OCTOBE

A Homecoming Celebration!

It’s a tailgate at ONU on the Tundra, and you are invited! Join alumni, students and friends for a wonderful weekend on our beautiful Ohio Northern campus. Northern will offer numerous activities all weekend long, including tours, music, festivities and rides, and, of course, we’ll have plenty of food on the grill waiting for you, your family and your friends!

Reunion Year Classes Reunion class photos will occur following the All Alumni Meeting on Saturday outside of McIntosh Center at approximately 11:30 a.m.

The Class Reunion Celebrations will occur at The Inn at Ohio Northern University beginning at 4 p.m. on Saturday. There also will be a special reunion area at the tailgate luncheon; please refer to the schedule of events.

This year we are striving to make Homecoming a Zero Waste Event! No trash cans will be available during the event, and all items will be recycled or composted.

Prospective Students High school students interested in learning more about Ohio Northern should schedule an appointment for an interview and tour of the campus through the Office of Admissions at 419-772-2260.

If you have or know of an interested high school student, bring them to campus on Friday, Oct. 18, for Experience ONU Day. Experience ONU Day really helps high school students get a feel for what it’s like to be a college student.

During this day, you’ll have opportunities to meet with faculty members from our nationally ranked arts, sciences and professional programs, sit in on a class, tour campus, hear from current ONU students, and more!

To register for this event, please visit www.onu.edu/visit.

Registration will close on Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2013.

Please contact the Office of Admissions at 1-888-408-4668 with any questions, and we hope to see you soon!
