MESSAGE FROM
DR. BETH MCCUSKEY, VICE PROVOST FOR STUDENT LIFE
DEAR PURDUE PARENTS AND FAMILIES, On behalf of the Boilermaker community and my colleagues here on campus, I’m thrilled to welcome you and your student to the Purdue family! Congratulations on getting to this point and thank you all for your encouragement and support that led to your student achieving this significant step in their life. As a parent of a recent college graduate, I know how important your impact on your student has been and how much you want to continue to be a part of your Boilermaker’s network.

Recognizing one’s impact and building a network are two of the values we are working to develop in every Purdue student through our Steps to Leaps program. In addition to these two pillars, Student Life is collaborating with campus partners to foster lifelong habits and promote a growth mindset in well-being, leadership and grit. As I reflect on my own experiences, I can see how these pillars have manifested in how I’ve overcome obstacles to achieve success. We in Student Life are excited to foster growth in your student in these areas so they can leave Purdue prepared for a lifetime of success.
