For the first time in program history, Purdue supporters will be able to earn John Purdue Club priority points through all giving across Purdue University’s main campus. Beginning with this year’s Purdue Day of Giving on April 30, contributions to non-athletics units will now qualify for priority points, offering donors more ways to engage with and support Purdue while strengthening the university’s philanthropic impact.

The Purdue University Board of Trustees has approved the promotion of 163 faculty across the Purdue University system as well as a new degree program, a posthumous degree, resolutions of appreciation, and a naming.

Tim House, deputy athletics director and associate vice president for development at Purdue, has been recognized as the National Association of Athletic Development Directors 2025 University Fundraiser of the Year. This prestigious award highlights House’s exceptional leadership and transformative impact on fundraising efforts for Purdue Athletics.
