Panthers love a good celebration! Since 2018, the UNI campus has observed TC Day, a chance to enjoy the end of a (sometimes) harsh Iowa winter and the excitement that always comes with a new season. It began when President Mark Nook issued a proclamation that a particularly cold winter had ended and the campus community was ready to enjoy a taste of the warmer weather. He invited everyone to join him for some tropical treats, and a tradition was born.
Originally called Tropical Celebration Day, TC Day has evolved into a day not only to relish the warming temperatures and the approaching culmination of another successful academic year, but also a time to recognize all of the wonderful things about the University of Northern Iowa and the people who call it home.
As the Panther community enjoys the seventh year of this tradition, TC Day has expanded from those treats handed out by President Nook into a day of celebration across the campus. TC Day 2024 will include fun throughout the day. Watch UNI's social media channels for more information.
Led by conductor Erik Rohde, this day-long event will host Iowa high school students in a hands-on, interactive orchestra invitational. For more information, contact Erik.Rohde@uni.edu.
Join TC and TK along with members of UNI’s ROTC, Panther Pacers Running Club and others for a 1-mile fun run/walk to kick off TC Day. Participants should meet by the Campanile. All are welcome.

Duration: 55 minutes
