Homecoming: Ringing of the Bell of '48

The Northwest community is invited to join Student Senate President Chloe DeVries and University President Dr. Lance Tatum as they ring the Bell of '48 to signify the start of Walkout Day.

The class of 1948 gifted Northwest with a bronze memorial bell in honor of all soldiers who fought and died during World War II, especially those fallen soldiers who attended Northwest or who once lived in northwest Missouri. The bell heralds Northwest achievements and celebrations and mournfully chimes to honor the passing of students.
