Many graduates of Purdue can't wait to take their freshly-minted degree to chase their dreams far outside the confines of the Purdue campus. But for others, the appeal of Purdue's many strengths is just too hard to leave behind for long. Years after earning their diplomas, there are some alumni who have chosen to share their love of research and teaching with a new generation of Purdue students. The College of Science is lucky enough to have several of these dedicated alumni who are giving back by teaching our students.
