Join us for the official kick-off of the Sesquicentennial Celebration with the inaugural chimes of the Sesquicentennial Bell.
‌The First Ringing of the Sesquicentennial Bell will take place at Commons Plaza, with music beginning at 10:30 a.m. and a short program at 11 a.m. All students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members are invited to attend what organizers hope will become a lasting tradition.
Following the ringing, the celebration continues with a free campus lunch on Lawther Field for students, faculty and staff, a lively student organization carnival, and a chance to participate in a group “150” photo commemorating the launch of the UNI Sesquicentennial Celebration.
