Purple will fill the skies and the entire campus is invited to have some fun as Western Illinois University parties like it’s 1899 for its 125th birthday celebration.

The party will be held 2-4 p.m., Monday, Sept. 23, in the Alumni Plaza outside the University Union after the Founder’s Day celebration.

The party will feature inflatables, free t-shirts, commemorative swag to celebrate the momentous occasion, and of course, birthday cake!

If weather forecasts call for rain, the birthday party will be held in the University Union Grand Ballroom instead of the Alumni Plaza.

The campus community is all invited to attend this event to kick off WIU’s quasquicentennial.
