We had a wonderful time celebrating our generous donors at the College of Health and Human Sciences Dean’s Club and Scholarship Reception last week. We are ever grateful for their support of our HHS students.

Two individuals seated at a reception desk in a foyer, with signs indicating a Purdue event, the Dean’s Club & Scholarship Reception. The background features people mingling in a softly lit area, with visible signs for Purdue Homecoming and the John Purdue Room. The setup includes decorative plants and organized papers on the table.

A social gathering in the John Purdue Room at Purdue University with several people seated around a table engaged in conversation. The setting features wooden floors and large windows.

A group of three people are gathered around a table with a floral centerpiece at a social event. Two are standing on one side, holding plates with food, and one is on the opposite side. There's a warm, indoor setting with wooden decor and soft lighting.

Four people are smiling and standing together in a room with large windows and a view of a kitchen area. Two are wearing Purdue-themed clothing.
