Boilermakers are known for working hard, but quality of life at Purdue is just as important.
That’s why we have 1,000+ student clubs and organizations to choose from, where anyone can find a group of people that helps them feel at home. That’s why student turnout at Mackey Arena is always at capacity, and it’s why seven of the National Pan-Hellenic Council’s nine historically Black fraternities and sororities are so active on campus.
Balancing a world-class education with a thriving social experience — that’s our giant leap.

Finding a community that cares
“I feel like I now have a dependable community that I can rely on, really, for the rest of my life. I’ve been able to grow with like-minded individuals, build my leadership skills and also understand the value of sisterhood.”
— Andrea Gibson DuPerry
Read about Boilermakers of the National Pan-Hellenic CouncilTo have communities of people I care so deeply for and want to do crazy things with — like go to Frisbee nationals or launch liquid rockets while balancing schoolwork — that’s one thing. But to have those communities also filled with some of the most caring and compassionate people I know? I am grateful for Purdue.
