As the First Lady of Purdue, Hui, a practicing internal medicine doctor trained at Pennsylvania Hospital, aspires to engage in initiatives that support and benefit all Boilermakers.

A website, https://www.purdue.edu/president/first-lady/, has been created to connect with the campus community and will serve as a resource with regular updates in the future. Through the website, Hui wants to promote and share all the great resources Purdue has to offer for children’s well-being, preventive health and community engagement. She also looks forward to enhancing alumni engagement.

“I am truly humbled to have this amazing opportunity to work with Purdue students, staff, faculty, neighbors and alumni,” Hui said. “We look forward to the opportunities to connect and collaborate across the university and community level.”
