TEDxPurdueU speakers to share 'Meraki'

TEDxPurdueU, Purdue's independently organized TED conference, will host a fourth annual flagship event from 6 to 10 p.m. April 11 in Loeb Playhouse. The theme of TEDxPurdueU 2015 is "Meraki." An untranslatable word from Modern Greek, it is used to describe doing something with passion, creativity, or love — when you undertake a task so intensely, that you nearly leave a physical piece of yourself in your work.
