From Northern Now Spring 2016, Alumni Magazine.
** NIU's Impact On Northern Illinois Economy: A conservative estimate puts its economic impact at $900 million a year. There are 12,900 jobs directly connected with NIU and total payroll of $423 million.
** Actor Joe Minoso, Class of '04, plays firefighter Joe Cruz on one of my favorite dramas, NBC's "Chicago Fire."
** Estimated cost to attend NIU for one year (tuition, fees, room and board).
1970-- $1,700
2015-- $$25,051
Ouch!!
** $14.9 Million in NIU Foundation scholarships provided to students over past ten years. Including 8 scholarships from us.
** James B. and Rosalyn L. Pick Museum of Anthropology in Cole Hall. I didn't know about this one. Cole Hall was where the St. Valentine's student murders took place but has been repurposed and renovated.
