How about that basketball team?! Now don't get me wrong, I have shared many times about how great the Agronomy department is, how kind the professors are, and what great opportunities are here on Purdue's campus; however, you have to enjoy the student life too. I personally LOVE going to Purdue sporting events. It is a time you see all the students and alumni join together to support our university. Lately a lot more people have been enjoying this experience at home Purdue basketball games.
This team is breaking news and bringing fans with their school record-breaking 18 win streak! Let's make that a 19 game streak this Saturday against Rutgers shall we? This team is very exciting to watch because they keep the games interesting. Compared to games last year, it seems like the team has a little more harmony. They seem to be more in sync with one another and work together towards a common goal. They have the playbook, the coaches, and the support from their fans so all they have to do is believe and work hard. It takes some talent and a whole lot of passion to work towards records never met before and I give a lot of credit to the members of this team.
This is all very similar to students who go for their degrees at Purdue. In the past I have shared that we have great coaches and support from family, friends, and faculty. Each student has their peers to lean on in tough classes and so all you have to do is work hard and believe you want and can get that degree. So we all cheer on incoming Boilers next fall and right now let's cheer on this basketball team!
Boiler Up & Hammer Down!
