Nov. 15,16 and 17 – Ohio Northern University performances

Clark Hall is gone, having been demolished and hauled away in trucks during the past month, but a limited number of bricks were saved and are available at $50 each.
Clark served as a residence hall for many years. Those with fond memories of the place can keep a brick as a memento.
Proceeds from the sale of the bricks will benefit the Northern Fund which supports campus improvements, academic programs, student life, faculty research and financial aid.
Bricks can be purchased via online pre-pay. They will be available for pick up at the activities tent at Homecoming.
Weather permitting, the Ohio Northern University walking path will be closed for one week beginning Monday, July 30 through Aug. 6 for crack-sealing and painting. The path, known as The Green Monster, extends from one end of the campus to the other, mostly along the outer edge. It is used by students as well as townspeople for walking, jogging, roller skating, taking babies for walks in strollers, and exercising dogs.
Ohio Northern University’s long history of athletic prowess is about to enter a whole new era. Esports is the newest, fastest-growing trend to hit collegiate athletics, and ONU is excited to announce it will launch an official varsity esports team in fall semester 2019.
Esports, short for electronic sports, is competitive video gaming at the highest skill level and has become something of a world-wide phenomenon in the last decade or so, with professional gamers from across the globe competing for championships and prizes.
