“We are honoring individuals who not only have reached unparalleled heights in their professional lives, but have also been enormously generous in their contributions to Purdue," said Purdue President Martin C. Jischke. "It is our privilege to invite these individuals back to campus, to recognize their achievements and to inspire today's graduates as they begin their careers."
