Purdue could be impacted by Indiana budget projection

A projection of nearly $40 million more than originally predicted in revenue for the state will have a small effect on the University’s decision of whether to raise tuition, said Purdue’s president.

President Martin Jischke said the state’s revenue report Monday means that compared to the state’s anticipated $24.2 billion two-year budget, the Senate and House budgets are unlikely to change much.

"This is such a small adjustment in the overall revenue," he said. "I think it means that the budget recommended by the governor, the house and the senate were predicated on fairly good estimates of the revenue."

Students should explore cultural differences

International Awareness Week, which began Tuesday and runs through Saturday, recognizes Purdue’s diverse mix of students and faculty. Purdue has 4,921 students from 128 foreign countries.

"Playing 11 games straight, without a bye, is tough enough," Tiller said. "Adding another game will not allow us to have a bye week and still start after Labor Day."
