The Purdue Day of Giving is happening on Wednesday, April 26th, and we want to encourage our Colombia-Purdue family and friends to support our cause. Early next week we will be sending out a Special Edition of our newsletter to show you what we have done and why we hope you will contribute. |
Sixteen Purdue Engineering students will be visiting Universidad del Norte from May 8th- 22nd, 2017 as part of a Maymester program called "Professional, Intercultural and Global Development in Colombia". This study abroad program is an outcome of the 100,000 Strong in the Americas grant where Purdue University, Universidad del Norte, and Universidad EAFIT are strategic partners.
The students will be visiting Barranquilla, Santa Marta and Cartagena, and they will be thrilled to meet with Purdue Alumni. If you would like to connect with them, you can reach out to Dr. Heidi Parker who is leading the Maymester program. She is a proud Purdue Alumna and Assistant Director for Latin America/Spain Program for Global Engineering Programs at Purdue. Dr. Parker will be at the Purdue Alumni Reunion in Miami on April 12, and she would like to hear from you. You may also contact her via email at hp@purdue.edu.
