Photos of Rose Bowl events on Web, FTP

The Purdue University News Service will provide high-resolution, professional photographs of events surrounding the Rose Bowl. We will post a few on Friday, Dec. 15, and Friday, Dec. 22, and then post daily beginning Friday, Dec. 29, through Monday, Jan. 1, at our FTP and Web sites:

ftp://ftp.purdue.edu/pub/uns/+rosebowl01

https://www.purdue.EDU/oop/bowl2000/

We will transmit photos to the FTP site as they become available but update the Web site less frequently.

We will be glad to send your publication an e-mail alert every time we update the FTP site. If you have not already provided us with your e-mail address for this purpose, please send it along with your newspaper's name and city, and a contact name and phone number to jnorberg@purdue.edu.

Media may pick up their credentials for the game from 2-6 p.m. PST Dec. 26 and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. PST Dec. 27-31 in the Olympic Ballroom, Westin Century Plaza Hotel, Century City.
