08/02-- M.J. Miller, 4, rings the bell on the Extra Special, Purdue University's mascot train during the Indiana State Fair Wednesday (8/14). Miller, from Indianapolis, was visiting the fair with his family during Discover Purdue Day. Wednesday was the first time any university has sponsored a day at the fair, and fairgoers could visit more than 40 tents of interactive Purdue exhibits. The day was filled with music from the "All-American" Marching Band and the Purduettes ensemble, rides on the Boilermaker Special, a pep rally, parade and the chance to meet some famous Purdue alumni, such as astronaut Jerry Ross and football legend Leroy Keyes.(Purdue University photo by Tom Campbell)
