WEST LAFAYETTE. Founded in 1869 and named in honor of John Purdue, Purdue University is one of the leading schools of higher education in the Midwest, if not the nation. The main campus, which has an enrollment of close to 40,000 students, is ideal for touring, especially on football Saturdays, when the "old gold and black" Boilermakers take on their traditional Big Ten foes. The university also boasts a top-notch fine arts department that puts on concerts and theater performances throughout the year. Visitor parking can be found at the VIC, which is located inside the Great Hall of the Purdue Memorial Union.
