NEW! This year we are starting a new competition between the offices and departments on campus. Each office or department will have the opportunity to submit a photo displaying their best Homecoming spirit. The entries will be posted on our social media the week of Homecoming. Whichever photo receives the most likes will win a $100 cash prize!
If your office or department is wanting to compete please contact the Homecoming Secretary at homecmg@nwmissouri.edu.
The Homecoming Committee and Student Senate are collaborating to host a Blood Drive Oct. 22-24. Northwest students and employees, alumni, community members, and friends and family are invited to give blood or a monetary donation. The blood drive is 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. each day in the Tower View Room, located on the third floor of the Student Union. Interested donors are encouraged to pre-register online.
Student organizations will compete to raise the most money and units of blood. To give blood or donations in support of a student organization, let a committee member know at the refreshment table.
1 unit of blood = 1 point
$10 = 1 point (a maximum of 3 points can be earned per donor)
