Northeastern University campus dog Ryder celebrated his second birthday with members of the Northeastern community, NUPD and resource dogs from other area universities on the Boston campus this week. Northeastern graduate and Juicygreens owner Ammy Lowney opened her eighth juice bar at Northeastern’s International Village on the Boston campus. President Joseph E. Aoun held a fireside chat with graduate and trustee Spencer Fung. And the president also handed out hats during the Facilities Department barbecue.
