Students who display strength in these values demonstrate to us that they are on a path to alumni leadership.

You will lose access to the gym and recreation facilities immediately. The class of 2020 will have continued access to the facilities until August 31, 2020 upon completing an Alumni Membership Form, which can be accessed through the Campus Recreation portal on myNortheastern or on the campus recreation website.
