In support of one of Purdue University’s Next Moves to increase the number of underrepresented Boilermakers on the West Lafayette campus and to support their success as students, faculty, staff and alumni, the College of Engineering announces a five-year program.
Project Bridge has been established with a $5 million gift from benefactors Bill Uhrig (E’82) and Anastasia Vournas.
A record number of gifts for Purdue Day of Giving came in from Boilermakers around the world who rallied together for Purdue University on Wednesday, April 24. Throughout the 24-hour online, social media-driven fundraising effort, a historic 32,054 gifts brought in $76.5 million for the university—bringing Purdue Day of Giving’s cumulative total since its launch in 2014 to $497 million.
The Purdue Board of Trustees ratified a faculty naming and approved a new degree program, resolutions of appreciation, and work related to the new Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. School of Business building.
