About the Purdue Latino Alumni Network
The Purdue Latino Alumni Network (PLAN) was first established as the Purdue Latino Alumni Organization, or PLAO, in 2004. Original members were driven by an interest in reinitiating a relationship with the University. Through the creation of the Latino Cultural Center (LCC) on campus, PLAO was able to find a home and begin its efforts to officially create the organization.
As of 2021, PLAN hopes to pick up where PLAO left off—with a renewed effort in supporting spaces for Latino alumni to reconnect with Purdue and build a community of support that goes beyond the undergraduate student experience.
