<strong>Northwestern</strong> Classic<br />
Reunited<br />
When alumni celebrating their 50-year reunion this May graduated in 1957, <strong>Northwestern</strong><br />
was a junior college and offered high-school level classes through the academy. Ten years later,<br />
the classes of 1966 and 1967 graduated from a four-year college and the academy had closed<br />
its doors. Regardless of its form, their alma mater drew them back to reminisce, renew old<br />
friendships, and marvel at how much has changed—and stayed the same—over the years.<br />
