In the Spotlight
From relationships to bridges, Purdue junior Kevin McKeon moves the world forward with what he builds. As a head facilitator at the Boiler Challenge Course for the Division of Recreational Sports, he transforms groups into teams. As a resident assistant in Cary Quadrangle, he molds the character of first-year students. And as a civil engineering major, he creates the structures that will sustain our future.
McKeon is one of five Purdue students featured in the latest installment of
"5 Students Who Move the World Forward."
