🖤💛 Meet Ryan Mason! 🖤💛
Back in 2013, a little girl sat down at lunch with her mom and, wearing her favorite Purdue quarter-zip, proudly looked up and said… "Mommy, I wanna go to Purdue."
Fast forward 13 years, and that same little girl is now a proud Purdue student, walking the very campus she dreamed about all those years ago!

Stories like Ryan's are exactly why your support matters. Your donations help create a space where students like her can truly belong and thrive. Click the link in our bio to donate today!

This past February, the BCC was honored to host the legendary Dr. Mae Jemison as our Black History Month keynote speaker!

Dr. Jemison captivated the room as she spoke on her incredible journey and what shaped her into the trailblazing icon she is today. She then engaged in a thoughtful and inspiring Q&A with students, sparking meaningful conversations and leaving everyone in the room feeling motivated and empowered!

Moments like these are made possible because of YOUR generosity. Your donations help us continue to bring world-class speakers and experiences to the Purdue community. Click the link in our bio to donate today!
