Football

Despite a disappointing 38–31 loss to Northwestern on the football field, the University of Iowa’s 2016 Homecoming festivities provided faculty, staff, students, and alumni with a lot to cheer about throughout the week.

Thirteen current and former UI Children’s Hospital patients will take their turn representing the hospital as Kid Captains during the Iowa Hawkeyes’ 2016 football season.

The list of Iowa’s Rose Bowl appearances spans nearly six decades, and a quarter-century has passed since the Hawkeyes’ last trip to Pasadena, California. The 1959 game is particularly well documented, thanks to a gift from a 1976 alumnus who had an unforgettable experience.
