Purdue HGSA
"Why I came to Purdue: (1) The department's prospective student day convinced me that community and cooperation and not competition and cut-throatism existed at this university." (2) At Purdue, I would have the opportunity to study under a scholar who has published many books, served as a journal editor, and appeared frequently on PBS and The History Channel. (3) Cheap beer." - Eric Hall
