Attended the freshmen orientation for my third child going to NIU today. They did a great job and there was a good size group. Not sure of this Fall's freshmen enrollment number, but today had a good buzz about.

That said, the best moment of the day was when the presenter asked everyone to buy Huskie gear before they left town. She continued that she did not want to see all of them decked out in Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio State gear. She was very passionate about it.... I loved hearing that Huskie pride which was part of the entire day.

That is all, not much of a thread piece, but a moment of Huskie "puff the chest" today brought out by some proud NIU employees today.

Go Huskies!!!
