The R. B. Stewart Society recognizes Purdue alumni and friends who have made a commitment to the future of Purdue through their estate plans or with life income gift arrangements.

Our Namesake

The society is named after Robert Bruce Stewart for his commitment to higher education, his efforts on behalf of the University, and his expression of faith in the future of Purdue through his own gifts. For 36 years, R. B. served the University as its chief business officer, building a legacy for Purdue's future through his financial genius.
