2023 Old Masters Program

The Old Masters Program is a unique and well-established annual event at Purdue University. It was created in 1950 when student leaders, business representatives, and university officials together defined success as “honesty, personal integrity, and a good philosophy.” This sparked the idea to invite a group of ten successful and outstanding individuals to campus for the purpose of sharing ideas and experiences with the student body, thus comprising the first ten Old Masters.

The 2023 Old Masters Program will take place from November 5th – November 7th. During the program Old Masters will engage with the Purdue student body by guest-speaking in classrooms, personally meeting with student organizations, eating meals with faculty dignitaries, and sharing about some of their most valuable experiences in our campus-wide panel event called Evening with the Old Masters which will take place on November 6th at 5:30pm. All events are free and give the Old Masters an opportunity to interact with the entire student body in order to Enrich Traditions, Unite Generations, and Empower Boilermakers. We hope to see you there.
