’Cats in California
More than 1,300 Northwestern alumni gathered in Los Angeles for a week of festivities, culminating in a football showdown between the Northwestern University Wildcats and the University of Southern California Trojans, a new Big Ten rival. Although the Wildcats didn’t secure a win, there was no shortage of Purple Pride lighting up the area.
The celebration kicked off at A Night With Northwestern: Wildcats in Hollywood, a panel discussion featuring alumni working across the entertainment industry. Desiree Staples ’14, co-president of NU Entertainment Alliance–West, moderated the conversation, during which distinguished alumni offered insights into their professional journeys and achievements. Explore the panelist bios and check out a video recap.
Alumni and friends continued the celebration at the Thursday Night Huddle Happy Hour at Arts District Brewing Company. Explore photos from the event below.
