  • Love love love

    As a Purdue graduate, I’m so happy to have found this podcast! Kate and team continue to find such interesting guests—whether thats a current student, faculty/staff member, or alumni taking their next giant leap. I’m especially loving this new research series, Mark Lundstrom’s episode truly amazed me as I didn't know about Purdue’s massive contributions to semiconductor research/education. Thanks for helping me start my Thursdays the right way! Keep it up! 🥰🚂
