Regretfully, we have to announce that unfortunately we must cancel the on-campus 60th anniversary celebration that had been scheduled for October 9,
2010.
This has been a very difficult decision and extremely disappointing, since the
response of WNUR alumni to the anniversary has been so enthusiastic. However,
unforeseen personal family circumstances of the 60th Anniversary organizers, as
well as scheduling conflicts have come together in such a way that necessitates
canceling the on campus WNUR 60th event on October 9th.
We will maintain the WNUR 60th anniversary Facebook group for people to gather
virtually. We will also post some video from the station, so those who have not
been back to campus recently can enjoy seeing the fabulous new home of WNUR in
Louis Hall.
The School of Communication thanks you for your understanding of this situation,
apologizes for this unfortunate situation and thanks you for your dedication to
WNUR.
Several people have still expressed interest in
commemorating the 60th with a gift. We will acknowledge any donors on the WNUR
website, and gifts can be made online at http://giving.northwestern.edu/nu/SoC
or by sending a check made out to Northwestern University (WNUR in memo
section) to: WNUR 60th School of Communication, 2020 Ridge
