Welcome to the Outstanding Huskies Series!

NIU’s Division of University Advancement is proud to announce the launch of the Outstanding Huskies series, a new initiative designed to celebrate the exceptional individuals who embody the spirit and pride of NIU. This series will spotlight the leaders, innovators, and trailblazers among our community who have made significant impacts within the university and beyond.
 

The Outstanding Huskies series aims to share the unique stories of our alumni, highlighting their achievements, dedication, and the remarkable ways in which they contribute to society. From groundbreaking research and innovations to inspirational leadership and community engagement, these stories will showcase the diverse talents and profound effects our Huskies have on the world.
 

In each episode, we highlight one such Outstanding Huskie. These individuals are trailblazers in their respective fields, who have risen to the pinnacle of success through hard work and perseverance. They are living testimonies to what it means to be a part of the NIU family, continually contributing hands-on to their professions and society at large.


Together, we celebrate the pride of NIU – our leaders, innovators, and trailblazers who make a difference in the world. For more information on the Outstanding Huskies series, please visit myniu.com/outstandinghuskies.
