A summer that is quiet, but still busy!
Greetings to all of the Purdue IE family!
While the corridors of Grissom Hall are a bit quieter than normal during the summer months, there is a lot going on in the building's offices and meeting rooms! We are in the throes of planning for the Peter Wang Student Excellence Center and other possible improvements, we continue to work to grow our faculty (with two new members joining us this fall!), and we have the pleasure of interacting with a growing number of our IE alumni who are doing great things around the world!
I invite to you to read more details about these items and more in this issue of the Purdue IE Webletter and, as always, please remember to stop by Grissom Hall to say hello the next time you're on campus!
