2026 Purdue Food Science Alumni Gathering

Once a Boilermaker, always a Boilermaker. We enjoyed welcoming Purdue Food Science alumni and their families back to campus. Attendees went "back to class" as they heard talks from department faculty and staff before striking a pose with Purdue Pete and the Boilermaker Xtra Special. We capped off the evening with a reception featuring student-made beer and Bruno's pizza, a Purdue staple. Thanks to everyone who was able to join us! Check out the photo gallery here.
