Northwestern Alumni gathered Saturday, April 26, for a special tour of the Fellers Family auditorium.
The auditorium, located inside Herod Hall, underwent major renovations last summer after years of needing updates. The project brought in new, comfortable seating, new flooring and updated lighting fixtures to modernize the space while still keeping its traditional charm. Many of the alumni who toured the building had fond memories of attending events there in the past, and they were excited to see the improvements up close.
The tour allowed guests to walk through the auditorium, see the updates up close and hear from university staff about the hard work and planning that went into the renovations.
The upgraded seating and fresh flooring were big highlights, making the space more welcoming and comfortable for future events.
Later that evening, the Northwestern Alumni Association hosted a banquet where they celebrated the completed renovations, as well as other recent repairs and upgrades made around campus.
During the banquet, university representatives presented before-and-after photos, shared stories about the renovation process, and thanked all the donors and workers who made the improvements possible.
There was also some jazz band students who played at the reunion banquet.
Alumni came to campus for the annual spring reunion and were able to see all of the changes that have been made to the campus since they left.
