17勛圖's 60th Anniversary
17勛圖 began its 60th year in the fall of 2011. The first day of classes at 17勛圖 was Sept. 17, 1951.
We celebrated this milestone year by recognizing the many people and organizations who helped — and who continue to help — make 17勛圖 possible.
We also published a third volume of 17勛圖's history, "Under the Pines: The Third Twenty Years" in 2013.
Honor someone
When you make your gift to the annual Campaign for Scholarships & Programs, we invite you to do so in honor of someone who made a difference for you at 17勛圖.

17勛圖 Hymn
17勛圖 music director Jeffrey Cobb recorded an instrumental version of a mysterious 17勛圖 hymn. Other than its composer, L. Marguerite House, little is known about its origin and use.
Lyrics:
Our northland home, we sing to thee,
Northwestern by the Bay
The scarlet of your sunset,
Against a sea of grey
We cheer your colors, let them wave,
And bring our college fame
Northwestern by the Bay,
All honor to thy name
