The energy was high and campus buzzed with excitement as Krentzman Quad, adorned with red, white and black decorations, filled with students and blared music. Tuesday, Oct. 3 marked the 125th anniversary of the founding of Northeastern University, and the student body celebrated accordingly. The daylong birthday celebration, hosted by the university, included a speech.
Northeastern students had a chance to put their late-semester stress aside during the annual Springfest week hosted by Northeastern’s Council for University Programs, or CUP. This year’s Springfest was especially notable for its throwback theme, allowing students to escape from their studies while reveling in childhood memories. Festivities kicked off March 26 with a screening.
