To the right, there are three photos stacked vertically: people working at a table with scientific equipment, a person looking intently at a project, and a person painting. The bottom text reads “Colts STEAM Combine - Sunday, Nov. 1.” Mathematical symbols decorate the background of the photos.

Why is Roger Gatewood (BSME ’68) a Purdue Engineering hero?
He gave the key leadership gift of $7.2 million to @PurdueME to enable the construction of the Roger B. Gatewood Wing, and he made a $3.5 million gift to support the Ray W. Herrick Laboratories reconstruction project. In addition, he provided a $1.5 million gift to support the design and construction costs required to obtain LEED certification through the U.S. Green Building Council for the Gatewood Wing, the first such project at Purdue. Nineteen years ago today, on Oct. 25, 2007, the university celebrated the successful completion of fundraising for the wing, which, in total, cost $33 million.
Gatewood ventured into entrepreneurship by founding an Illinois-based homebuilding company, Westfield Homes. The company experienced significant growth and expansion into Florida and the Carolinas, becoming one of the largest homebuilders in America. He sold the business to Standard Pacific Homes in 2002.

🎥 A message from the Purdue 1 crew to Indiana fifth graders!
Purdue alum Jason Williamson will fly aboard Purdue 1, Purdue’s all-Boilermaker suborbital research spaceflight — and he wants to hear from Hoosier fifth graders.
Through the Purdue 1 Indiana Essay Competition, fifth graders are invited to write about how they could use a favorite school subject, hobby or skill to help a space mission crew succeed. One winner from each of Indiana's 92 counties will receive a personalized Purdue 1 mission patch, and if mission conditions permit, winners' names will fly with the crew.
Teachers and parents: Share this video with a fifth grader you know! Essays are due Nov. 30: bit.ly/purdue-1-essay
