Vintage 1936 Northwestern Campus Video →
This is the coolest video you will watch today. Take a trip back to 1936 and see how Northwestern celebrated Homecoming 75 years ago. The video (with sound!) opens with a campus tour showing many buildings that remain today, followed by vintage football action of Northwestern beating Minnesota. Hopefully we’ll see more of the same at Ryan Field tomorrow! Go ‘Cats!
