February 2016 Newsletter

How will you celebrate leap year 2016? Use the extra day to support North Central's brilliant future and  recommend a future Cardinal for a scholarship, share your personal and professional highlights with a classnote, apply to speak at TEDxNorthCentralCollege or register for one of our awesome alumni  events. However you choose to use day 366, know that we appreciate your support and Cardinal pride!

P.S. It's coming... Mark your calendar for 4.5.16 so you can #Be1of861.

We're hitting the road with the Brilliant Future Campaign!
If you didn't have a chance to come to campus for the Campaign's official kickoff, President Troy Hammond will be traveling the country to visit with alumni and friends and discuss his vision for the future of the College. Watch for your invitation. We hope you can join us!  

Commemorate
Leave a legacy! A personalized brick honors graduates, families and friends in a permanent way. We invite you to purchase an engraved brick to be placed at one of three beautiful locations on campus: including Old Main Plaza, the Bambule Riverwalk Gateway and the new Science Center. 

You can purchase a brick today to leave your legacy and support the North Central College Fund.
