To celebrate Homecoming, Segal Design Institute and the McCormick School of Engineering welcomed Northwestern alumni and their families to Prototype Purple on October 25. Held in the Ford Engineering Design Center, the annual event brings together Wildcats before the official University Pep Rally. This year, attendees enjoyed a tour of the Segal Prototyping & Fabrication Shop led by student shop trainers and managers. At the conclusion of the tours, participants could take home a Northwestern-themed keychain made in the Shop. In the Atrium of Ford, attendees enjoyed "Prototype Your Snack" stations.
