The Purdue Alumni
Association, Inc., was chartered in 1912. Its purpose
is to serve Purdue University and its alumni through
the involvement of alumni in projects of an educational
and charitable nature. Association members elect three
of the trustees of Purdue University in accordance
with the statutes of the state of Indiana.
In the records department, the association maintains
addresses and information for all graduates and former
students. More than 125 clubs in the United States and
other countries hold regular meetings and sponsor local
Purdue-related activities. Campus activities include
Homecoming on a football weekend and Gala Week class
reunions in April honoring the 50th anniversary class.
Other services include international tours and special
travel events; a career networking opportunity for alumni;
a credit card program for alumni; merchandise bearing
Purdue insignias; group life, accident, and medical insurance
programs offered to members; and assistance to the University
with student recruitment and legislative activities.
Alumni programs of each school/college and of the regional
campuses also are sponsored by the Alumni Association.
The Purdue Alumnus, the official publication of the
association, is published six times each year.
Association offices are in the Dick and Sandy Dauch
Alumni Center, 403W. Wood St.
