NIU Homecoming 2010-- Part 2

We drove Il-120 to Il-47 to Il-176 and then Il-23 to Dekalb.

We took a drive around Greek Row north of campus and saw that the AKLs now are in the old Delta Sig house on Greenbrier.

Then, it was on to Augusta and College avenues east of campus. During fall, these streets get a mighty dose of gold from the trees, but not this year. I saw that the house the Delta Sigs were in during my pledge period is still standing and used for student rentals.

Then, on to the prettiest part of campus, that part around the Lagoon and Altgeld Hall, the original NIU building.


MEDIA HOUND'S BACK

We were glad to see that the Media Hound Huskie was back at his position by the media building east of Altgeld. He was one of the Huskies on Parade statues that helped heal the wounds of the campus murders that took place Valentine's Day 2008.

He is decked out complete with fedora and old flash camera and our favorite of the huskies that were made.

This past summer, he was stolen, but found a couple weeks later. We eventually found out that he had just been put back in place the day before we arrived.
