Celebrating 10 Years of Impact at Purdue University Northwest

In 2026, Purdue University Northwest will celebrate a decade of changing students’ lives as we mark our 10th anniversary.

To commemorate this milestone and help bring this celebration to life across our campuses, the PNW 10th Anniversary Steering Committee is planning university-wide events that will be open to the entire community. In addition, individual units, colleges and departments are encouraged to plan their own events that highlight the many ways PNW has transformed students’ lives and positively impacted our region.

To support these celebrations, the university has made funding available for matching support. The PNW 10th Anniversary Steering Committee will oversee the distribution of these funds. Applications will receive primary consideration if submitted by March 1, 2026. The application form is available at PNW 10th Anniversary Support Fund Application. Funding decisions will be made by the PNW 10th Anniversary Steering Committee.

We look forward to celebrating this important milestone with you in the year ahead.

Please contact Julie Wiejak, 10th Anniversary Fund Distribution Sub-Committee Chair, if you have any questions.
