Boiler Bytes - The Founding of Purdue University

In celebration of Purdue University’s 150th anniversary we’ll be featuring a segment in each Boiler Bytes this year that takes a look at the giant leaps made in Purdue’s past, present, and future. In this segment we go all the way back to the very beginning, the founding of Purdue University. To learn more about the 150 years of Purdue University history you can read the newly published book, Ever True: 150 years of Giant Leaps at Purdue University by John Norberg.
