Mark your calendars for Aug. 20: "Photo on the Green"
The Quasquicentennial, UND’s 125th Anniversary, will be celebrated in 2008! In preparation for this upcoming celebration, a “Photo on the Green” event will take place Monday, Aug. 20, on the Carnegie Hall north lawn. The event will begin at 1 p.m. and the picture will be taken at 1:25 p.m. The first 5,000 people to come will receive a free commemorative 125th anniversary T-shirt.
The group photo will be taken of the UND family to include thousands of students, staff, faculty, alumni and other members of the campus community. The goal is to have enough participants to form a large UND flame logo on the campus lawn. This will be the first event of many that will help the community honor the University’s long history and growing future.
Chuck Kimmerle, UND photographer, has agreed to take the photograph, and Robert Brooks, UND marching band director, will assist with coordinating the participants in the picture. The process of taking this group photo will be videotaped by the Television Center, and the resulting video will be used as a video spot to promote the 125th anniversary year.
Mark your calendars now for Aug. 20. The ‘Q’ is coming. . . be a part of history, be a part of the fun, be a part of the celebration! -- Jennifer Swangler, Committee Member, UND 125th Anniversary Communications/Marketing Sub-Committee, jenniferswangler@mail.und.edu, 777.6374 |
