As a land-grant university, our mission has always been to serve all. 🇺🇸
This year, we come together to celebrate America’s 250th birthday — and our own legacy of persistently pursuing the next giant leap. ⬇️ purdue.university/4ucRoHL
It’s been a phenomenal season, @BoilerBall. Thank you to the team for all your hard work and to the fans who never stopped showing up, cheering on and hammering down.
It’s about the name on your chest. It’s ours. It’s yours. It’s Purdue. 🏀
So close to seeing @BoilerBall in the @NCAA Final Four. We’re ready — and we cannot wait to cheer with you.
We're heartbroken by the result, but we couldn't be prouder of @BoilerBall. What a fantastic season, and we know that every member of that team gave it everything they had. 🚂💛🖤#EverGratefulEverTrue#BoilerUp#MarchSadness
Whose state? Our state. Thirty-six thousand square miles of #Boilermaker country. Home of @BoilerBall. Home of the Old Gold and Black. 👀
Watch this video and make some noise for #Purdue — Indiana’s highest-ranked, most innovative, best value school. 🚂🆙
On Tyler Trent’s birthday, we remember the ways that he uplifted everyone around him and showed true strength during his battle against cancer. #TylerStrong

What is Purdue? 🚂⬆️
#PurdueUniversity has now frozen tuition through the 2024-25 academic year, marking 12 straight years tuition has remained unchanged.
Hello, I’m a public land grant university. You may know me from my greatest hits, including: “Do you push or pull the Stewart doors?”, “Neil Armstrong went here”, "It's only a 10-minute walk", and the all-time favorite “Boiler up, hammer down.”
(1/3) #Purdue has joined an amicus brief, supporting the complaint filed by @Harvard and @MIT for declaratory and injunctive relief in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.
After nearly two decades, commercial air service will return to the Purdue University Airport in 2024 with nonstop flights connecting Greater Lafayette and Chicago. ✈️🚂🆙 purdue.university/3t8hhP5

You stand by one another. You show your pride. You put respect and resilience into everything you do, and it’s always appreciated.
Ever grateful. Ever true. 🚂
No worries @brooksallison_@jimmyfallon, we've been explaining it for over a century. Back in the 1890s, a newspaper called our football team the “Burly Boiler Makers.” The name stuck, and over time, it came to mean a whole lot more than just sports. #BoilerUp
This Homecoming weekend was out of this world 🚀👩🚀👨🚀 From our astronaut alumni, winning the football game, and our favorite halftime show EVER, there were many memories made! Here's to the next 150 years. #TakeGiantLeaps#Purdue150

"Picking the harder way is not just about working harder. It’s a reflection of deeper thinking about principles, priorities and trade-offs. Choices are made at every juncture in life. Perhaps choose the harder way - the Boilermaker way." - @PurduePresidentpurdue.edu/newsroom/releases…
