This week, Northeastern celebrated Cooper’s fifth birthday with party hats and cake on the Boston campus. Thousands also gathered for Friends and Family Weekend, an annual tradition that brings together students and their loved ones for campus activities and celebrations. Plus, the university opened its Fall River hub, where it will expand its accelerated bachelor of science in nursing program.
