It's awesome to be able to say, "Once a Bearcat, always a Bearcat." We love attending Northwest football, basketball and baseball games with lifelong friends and seeing former classmates and faculty members. We also enjoy spending time with alumni from the St. Joseph area at "green and white" events and encouraging high school students to attend Northwest. If it hadn't been for the wonderful education I received at Northwest, I wouldn't have been able to be an educator for more than 30 years. Now it's time to give back to the University by giving of our time and talents, sharing our pride and, of course, financially supporting scholarships, the Northwest Alumni Association and individual students. Let's all take pride in our alma mater so that many more can proudly say, "Once a Bearcat, always a Bearcat."

It's because of the volunteer support of countless alumni and friends -- spirited people like Jim and Patty Bolin Roach -- that Northwest continues to thrive.
