Annual Veteran’s Day Ceremony
Northeastern has a longstanding tradition of honoring its students, alumni, faculty, and staff who serve or have served in the armed forces. Our veterans are forever part of the Northeastern family, and we’re proud to support their unwavering service and commitment to their country. Each year we celebrate on Veterans Day at a ceremony on the Boston Campus in front of the Northeastern University Veterans Memorial on Neal F. Finnegan Plaza.
