 My first small step was deciding to study engineering. My second small step was deciding to come to Purdue for graduate school. And my third small step was persuading my wife to come with me. We had a family at the time and I was a doctoral student with some kids. My giant leap was accepting a faculty position that led to opportunities to work with students which I loved to teach, to do research. Ultimately, I had opportunities to serve in administrative positions at the college, at the university level. All of those opportunities, all of my experiences, I can trace to what Purdue equipped me to contribute to. I'm Brent Webb, PhD in mechanical engineering, 1986. I am a Purdue engineer.
