This week, Towson University kicks off a 13 month celebration in recognition of our 150th anniversary! The celebration will include signature events, visiting scholars, unveiling of new creative works, presentations, displays, and many opportunities for the community to get in on the action. Here are some ways you can get engaged:
Share a memory
The TU150 website has a great tool for sharing a memory, picture, or even video.
Attend an event
From TU night at the Orioles to a special 2015 Economic Outlook Conference there are events for every age and interest.
Look around!
TU150 is going to be everywhere. The buildings around campus are being wrapped in TU150 banners, students graduating this year will have special TU150 regalia, and there are even banners lining Lombard and Charles Streets.
Beef up on your TU knowledge
Our TU Archives department is incredible, and they’re really shining these days. They have put together an interactive timeline that gives you more info than you ever wanted to know.
While there is plenty of fun to be had during the #TU150 it’s also a time for the university and its alumni, students, friends, and supporters to reflect on the past and look towards the future. What will TU look like in 2066? What will be our academic program offerings? How will our faculty teach and interact with students? What will be the residential student experience?
Don’t miss out on the celebration—after all it will be another 50 years before we do it again!
Oh, and did I mention there are lots of great sponsorship and support opportunities?
