THE JPC REPORT THE TEAM BEHIND THE TEAMS ELECTION TIME! The platform of the John Purdue Club is the support of student-athlete scholarships. Our focus is on providing the necessary resources for their success both on and off the field of play. We believe this should appeal to every Boilermaker alumnus or fan, no matter their political affiliation. Therefore, whether this state is red or blue in November, our goal is to ensure the State of Indiana remains a Black and Gold State with your support. DID YOU KNOW? Many do not realize the Purdue Athletics Department is one of only SEVEN fully self-supporting athletics programs in NCAA Division I-A, receiving no state or university subsidies. Therefore, we rely on the philanthropy of our loyal Boilermakers to underwrite more than $9.7 million in scholarship costs for our student-athletes. JPC Members provide student-athletes with a foundation for academic achievement, athletic triumph and success after graduation. SOCIAL REWARDS Get social with Purdue Athletics. Fans will be awarded points based on game attendance, posts, re-tweets, etc. that can be used to purchase items or enter drawings for prizes.
