Upcoming Band Alumni Events

Who is a WIU Band Alumnus?

A WIU Band Alumnus must meet the following requirements:

  1. Have been a member of the Marching Leathernecks (to be eligible for Homecoming Alumni Band) or the Pep Band (to be eligible for Alumni Pep Band) for at least one full season.
  2. Are no longer a student at Western Illinois University.
  3. Graduation is not a requirement, but you must no longer be a student at the university.
  4. Exception to #2 and #3: You may participate if you are currently student teaching.

For example, if you were in the Marching Leathernecks previously, are not this year, but you are still a university student, you may not participate in Alumni Band. Once you have finished attending Western Illinois University, we would love for you to participate!
