NIU's Summer Commencement 1968


From the August 22, 2018, MidWeek  "Looking Back."

1968, 50 Years Ago.

"At Northern Illinois University's  annual summer commencement, 470 students received graduate degrees.

"Another 338  received bachelor degrees as Northern presented a record 808 doctoral through undergraduate degrees at the event.  About 2,500 attended the ceremony.

And, I was there the next year and graduated in 1973.
