Alumni Spotlights

The College of Liberal Arts is essential to a Purdue education that prepares graduates for meaningful careers and inspired leadership. Empowered by their Liberal Arts education, our alumni succeed across a wide variety of careers. Graduates from the College of Liberal Arts enter the workforce as independent thinkers and visionary leaders. Our alumni think broadly and lead boldly in many fields and communities across the globe – so we’ve asked 50 of them to tell us more about their careers and lives, via a modified version of the Proust questionnaire.  This survey was a popular parlor game in Marcel Proust’s time, made famous by Vanity Fair. We hope your enjoy getting to know these passionate, creative alumni.
