Purdue will dedicate the new Honors College and Residences today (Sept. 9). The new space is the first of its kind in Indiana and among the nation's most advanced academic residential colleges. The 324,000-square-foot facility houses more than 800 students and is home to the college itself, serving as a hub for its administration and academic programs. Students are just steps away from computer labs, study spaces, classrooms, social spaces and a café. A photo gallery of the new buildings is available here.
