NU Day at Wrigley 2025
On May 14, 2025, more than 3,400 members of the Northwestern community attended the Cubs game at Wrigley Field for NU Day @ Wrigley. The annual tradition dates to at least 1980, according to University Archives. Before the game, where the Chicago Cubs took on the Miami Marlins, alumni celebrated the occasion at Brickhouse Tavern. Inside the Friendly Confines, the Northwestern Trombone Choir played the national anthem and Sullivan-Ubben Head Men’s Basketball Coach Chris Collins threw out the ceremonial first pitch. A portion of the proceeds from the special ticket sales raised funds for Northwestern’s Student Activities Assistance Fund, which offers students financial assistance to participate in campus programs and events.
