New OIRAE Briefing examines undergraduate time to degree trends, debt

The latest report released by Purdue's Office of Institutional Research, Assessment and Effectiveness examines Purdue's undergraduate time to degree trends compared to public universities nationally. The report, available here, also highlights the importance of a lower time to degree as it relates to the debt incurred by undergraduate students. A public forum on the topic will be held 2-3 p.m. Thursday (Jan. 14) in Stewart Center, Room 278.

The hope embedded in higher education and in a new year, as well as in the quest for justice and dignity, is expressed admirably in "I Come From Women Who Could Fly," the title of a current exhibition by alumna Delita Martin on display through Jan. 22 in the West Gallery of the Patti and Rusty Rueff Galleries in Pao Hall. In all these ways, this can be a hopeful year. Don't Miss It!
