Cast your vote for our first "Pride with Purpose" shirt.
The Pride with Purpose annual shirt sale is a new Homecoming tradition and a collaborative effort between NIU Athletics, the NIU Foundation, the NIU Alumni Association and the Division of Enrollment Management, Marketing and Communications. Each year, the campus community will vote for the design of the shirt and the winning design will be produced in limited quantities and be made available for purchase for one year. All proceeds from the sale of the shirts will be used to support NIU’s general student scholarship fund.
Those who vote will be entered into a drawing to win a NIU Huskies football helmet or two tickets to a home football game of their choice.
