Leaders from Purdue University’s Office of Industry Partnerships, Purdue Global and Vandenberg Space Force Base held a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the establishment of a Purdue Global education office within Vandenberg’s education center. This represents the first time Purdue Global has opened an extension office on a military base, specifically designed to serve military-affiliated students and the surrounding community.

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.
