Why It's Wild
Translated to "Our Family" in English, NUestra Familia is Wild because it encompasses the Latinx's community's determination to succeed and support each other at NU. For many, attending Northwestern means leaving behind family and one's cultural community. Created in 2011, NUestra Familia serves to connect and support NU's Latinx students.
