WWho do you look towards as your major ccontributors from last year’s squad? There are quite a few that I think will contribute a lot, especially tthose that are returning back. All of our returning divers are a huge aasset to our team. They have established an excellent “culture” and tthey should continue to shine this season. Our two team captains, CChristine Inman and Leah Henninger, will contribute a lot, not jjust in terms of points but in the whole attitude, demeanor and cculture of the team. They are going to be a pretty integral part of eestablishing that. We also have one senior, Elyse Dudar, who is ddefi nitely a leader in our system.

The goal for our team this year is to get in the top half of the Big Ten. The women on the team actually established that goal. I started out the year and talked about where we want to go and what we want to do in terms of the next few years, and then we all stated our goals for this year in a collaborative effort. Our goal is to be in the top half of the Big Ten, which is actually a big jump for us. I think it’s a pretty high goal, but one that is attainable if we all do everything that we can.

2008-092008 0 9 BOILERMAKERBOILERMAKER SWSWIMMINGIMMING & DDIVINGIVING INFORMATIONINFORMATION GUGUIDEIDE 49 Boasting more than 400,800 living alumni, Purdue University graduates have been to the moon, to the highest levels of business and government, and to Sweden to receive the Nobel Prize. The Indiana link in a nationwide chain of 68 land- grant colleges and universities, Purdue owes its origin to the Morrill Act signed by Abraham Lincoln in 1862 to promote establishment of schools to teach agriculture and the “mechanic arts.” An act of generosity by Lafayette businessman John Purdue secured the college for Lafayette. Purdue pledged money and land for the school. In return, the institution was named for him, and he remained a trustee until his death in 1876. Classes began in 1874 with a total of 39 students and six faculty members. Since then, enrollment has grown to more than 70,000 on fi ve campuses and a faculty and staff totaling more than 18,800. A record 40,090 students are enrolled at Purdue’s main campus in West Lafayette, Ind., in 2008. Since its inception in 1869, Purdue has attained widespread fame for the quality of learning, research and engagement in a number of fi elds. Building upon historical strengths in engineering and agriculture, the West Lafayette campus currently offers 7,400 courses in more than 500 undergraduate majors and specializations in the colleges/ schools of Agriculture; Consumer and Family Sciences; Education; Engineering; Liberal Arts; Management; Pharmacy, Nursing, and Health Sciences; Science; Technology; and Veterinary Medicine. Programs of graduate study and research leading to advanced degrees fall under the jurisdiction of the Graduate School. Purdue is ranked 21st in the nation in the latest U.S. News & World Report top 50 public universities and, in 2004, was ranked 59th in the world and ninth among American public universities in a survey by The Times of London. In addition to charting new paths through its instruction, Purdue also pushes back the frontiers of research, from unraveling the molecular structure of viruses to designing a self-supporting food system for space colonies to genetically engineering crops and plants for feeding an ever-increasing global population. As one of the 25 largest colleges and universities in the United States, Purdue leaves its mark on the world – and beyond – on a daily basis. Long known as the “mother of astronauts,” the University boasts 22 graduates – 20 men and two women – who have been selected to participate in the NASA space program. From the 1960s to today, from the Mercury Program to today’s fl eet of space shuttles, Purdue alumni have fl own on more than one-third of all manned U.S. space fl ights. Neil Armstrong, the fi rst person to walk on the moon, and Gene Cernan, the last person to leave it, both call Purdue alma mater. In addition to the astronauts, scores of scientists, engineers and other personnel who help support the space program have graduated from Purdue. From the steam era to the space age, Purdue has forged a proud tradition of education, research and service to the state, the United States and the world – a tradition that gets stronger every day.

Burke Nickname ...... Boilermakers Colors ...... Old Gold and Black Mascot ...... Boilermaker Special Song ...... “Hail Purdue” National Affi liation ...... NCAA Division I Conference ...... Big Ten Boilermakers The year was 1891, and a little- known school that prided itself on educating men and women for productive, utilitarian careers was just beginning to experience success in football. DePauw, Wabash and Butler were the football powers of Indiana in those days. Purdue was late to the game, fi elding its fi rst team in 1887 and losing its only game to Butler 48-6. By 1891, Purdue had hired two coaches from eastern power Princeton and was on the verge of an era of total domination of opponents. In the 1891 season opener, Purdue traveled to Wabash College in nearby Crawfordsville. Besides coming away with a 44-0 victory, the Purdue “eleven,” as football teams were known back then, headed back to West Lafayette with a new nickname. In the 1890s, hometown newspapers were considerably more protective of college teams than they are today. After the 44-0 drubbing, one Crawfordsville newspaper lashed out at the “Herculean wearers of the black and old gold.” Beneath the headline “Slaughter of Innocents,” the paper told of the injustice visited upon the “light though plucky” Wabash squad. “Wabash Snowed Completely Under by the Burly Boiler Makers From Purdue” proclaimed another headline on the same story in the Daily Argus-News. By the next week, the Lafayette papers were returning the taunts: “As everyone knows, Purdue went down to Wabash last Saturday and defeated their eleven. The Crawfordsville papers have not yet gotten over it. The only recourse they have is to claim that we beat their ‘scientifi c’ men by brute force. Our players are characterized as ‘coal heavers,’ ‘boiler makers’ and ‘stevedores,’” wrote a reporter for the Lafayette Sunday Times of Nov. 1, 1891. The nickname stemmed from the nature of a Purdue education. As a land-grant institution, the college since its founding in 1869 had schooled the sons and daughters of the working class for work that was considered beneath the high-born who attended liberal arts colleges such as Wabash. That same fall of 1891, Purdue had acquired a working railroad engine to mount in a newly established locomotive laboratory. It was one more step in the development of Purdue as one of the world’s leaders in engineering teaching and research. For athletic adversaries and their boosters, this specialty in engineering education — and the other concentration at the founding of the institution, agriculture — served as fodder for name-calling. Over the years, Purdue teams had been called grangers, pumpkin- shuckers, railsplitters, cornfi eld sailors, blacksmiths, foundry hands and, fi nally, boilermakers. That last one stuck.
Old Gold and Black Members of Purdue’s fi rst football team in 1887 felt that the squad should be distinguished by certain colors, and since Princeton was at the time the most successful gridiron unit, its colors were considered. Though actually orange and black, the Princeton colors were known by many as yellow and black. Purdue gridders opted for old gold over yellow, kept the black, and began fl ying the colors that endure today. Boilermaker Special The offi cial mascot of the Boilermakers is a replica of a Victorian-era locomotive. Conceived b y a Purdue student in the 1930s to exemplify the engineering and agrarian heritage of Purdue, the fi rst Special was provided by a group of alumni working in executive positions in the rail and automotive industries. Boilermaker Special I made its debut on the fi rst day of classes in 1940. Then-President Edward Elliott assigned an existing spirit group, the Reamer Club, to maintain and operate “the train,” as Reamers have always called the Special. Alumni, students, faculty and staff have raised funds to replace the Special as it has worn out — in 1953, 1960 and, most recently, in 1993. Boilermaker Special V was unveiled on Sept. 25 of the latter year at the Purdue-Notre Dame game. Lafayette semi-trailer manufacturer Wabash National took the lead in providing materials and labor to build the newest Special. The “V” is appropriate because Special IV, known as the X-tra Special, was actually the fourth faux locomotive produced. Although each version of the full-size Special has been a total remake, elements of V came from I, including the bell, light and whistle. Built to be roadworthy in each of its four incarnations, the Special appears at all games in Ross-Ade Stadium, travels to away football games and is a favorite at events ranging from parades to birthday parties. The Special made the trip to Pasadena to accompany the Boilermakers to the 2001 Rose Bowl, although it was shipped the 2,100 miles to southern California.
X-tra Special Built on a golf cart frame, the X-tra Special goes to all the athletics events that the Boilermaker Special can’t, including those in Mackey Arena and Lambert Fieldhouse. The body for the X-tra Special was fabricated in a Department of Aviation Technology lab on the West Lafayette campus.
Purdue Pete A boilermaker if ever there was one, Purdue Pete fi rst took the fi eld to cheer on the Boilermakers in 1956. Initially, students with tumbling ability were chosen to portray Pete. In those days, Pete had a papier mache head and a bit of padding but was expected to tumble along with the cheerleaders. Today, Pete’s head is crafted in the same aviation technology lab that produced the locomotive body of the X-tra Special. In addition to the head, the four students who portray Pete wear shoulder pads and carry a hammer. Pete got his start in 1940 as an advertising icon for University Bookstore, and he continues in that role. He fi rst appeared outside bookstore ads in 1944, when editors of the Debris yearbook put an adapted Pete on each page. For instance, in the home economics section, Pete had a bucket and mop; for civil engineering, he peered through a transit. Purdue Pete lore is fi lled with tales of wrestling matches against opposing mascots and muggings by opposing fans. Once, on the way back from Iowa, Pete’s head blew out of the back of the Boilermaker Special. It was never found. Pete has changed with the times, boasting more than fi ve makeovers through his years rooting on the Boilermakers.
Crimson & Gold Cup Rowdy For more than a century, two titans of Indiana intercollegiate While Pete stays on the fi eld throughout Purdue games, his bouncy sports have squared off. As the Purdue-Indiana rivalry fl ourished and sidekick, Rowdy, instead saunters out periodically to rally fans, especially the stakes outgrew mere bragging rights, traveling trophies emerged. children.

In men’s basketball, bragging rights are suffi cient. Now, when the Boilermakers and Hoosiers tangle, the stakes are higher still. The Crimson & Gold Cup, which debuted in 2001- 02, takes the storied rivalry to epic heights, with Olympic sports and revenue sports each carrying a point to the winner. At the end of the academic year, the points are tallied and the winner is awarded the Crimson & Gold Cup. In addition, miniature versions of the trophy go to the head-to-head winner in each sport. For ties, each team gets one-half point. If the two teams do not meet during the regular season, the higher fi nisher in the Big Ten championships is the Crimson & Gold Cup sport champion. Purdue reclaimed the Crimson & Gold Cup following the 2006-07 season, winning 10.5-9.5.
‘I Am An American’ A proud tradition of Ross-Ade Stadium pregame ceremonies is the reading of this tribute to freedom by Roy Johnson, voice of the Purdue “All-American” Marching Band. “I am an American. That’s the way most of us put it, just matter of factly. They are plain words, those four: you could write them on your thumbnail, or sweep them across this bright autumn sky. But remember too, that they are more than just words. They are a way of life. So whenever you speak them, speak them fi rmly, speak them proudly, speak them gratefully. I am an American.” West Lafayette, the location of Purdue University’s main campus, is the twin city of Lafayette, the county seat of Tippecanoe County.

Program Of Excellence Purdue was a 2004 recipient of the “Program of Excellence” Award. The award is given to universities whose CHAMPS programs have established student-athlete welfare as the cornerstone of their operating principles. A meeting of seven Midwest university presidents on January 11, 1895 at the Palmer House in Chicago to discuss the regulation and control of intercollegiate athletics, was the fi rst development of what would become one of organized sports’ most successful undertakings. Those seven men, behind the leadership of James H. Smart, president of Purdue University, established the principles for which the Intercollegiate Conference of Faculty Representatives, more popularly known as the Big Ten Conference, would be founded. At that meeting, a blueprint for the control and administration of college athletics under the direction of appointed faculty representatives was outlined. The presidents’ fi rst-known action “restricted eligibility for athletics to bonafi de, full-time students who were not delinquent in their studies.” This helped limit some problems of the times, especially the participation of professional athletes and “non-students” in the university’s regular sporting events. That important legislation, along with others that would follow in the coming years, served as the primary building block for amateur intercollegiate athletics. Eleven months after the presidents met, one faculty member from each of those seven universities met at the same Palmer House, and offi cially established the mechanics of the “Intercollegiate conference of Faculty Representatives”, Football and baseball were the popular sports prior to 1900. Wisconsin won the or “Big Ten Conference” of “Western Conference.” fi rst two football championships and Chicago claimed the fi rst three baseball titles.

After a 40-year period of constancy in membership, the Conference The offi ce of the commissioner of athletics was created in 1922 “to study expanded to 11 members for the fi rst time.

Available to all cable and satellite providers nationwide, with most programs offered in stunning high-defi nition television (HDTV), the network will allow fans to see their home teams, regardless of where they live. The network is led by President Mark Silverman, a former Disney executive who came to the network after serving as the general manager and senior vice president of ABC Cable Networks Group since April of 2004, managing the company’s equity in such channels as Lifetime Television, A&E Network and the History Channel, each of which recorded their best fi nancial performance in 2005. Silverman was also responsible for developing and launching new cable channels, shows and other key initiatives. The Big Ten Network launches its inaugural season in August 2007 with football, men’s and women’s basketball, a nightly studio show, classics and coaches shows, along with more Olympic sporting events and exposure for women’s sports than has ever been aired on any other network. In June of 2007, the Big Ten announced that the Big Ten Network will become the fi rst national network to commit to “event equality” for men’s and women’s sports on all network-controlled media within the fi rst three years of launch. This dedication to “event equality” highlights the Big Ten’s ongoing dedication to gender equity, which is aligned with the commitment of conference institutions to provide fairness for all female student-athletes. The programming on the Big Ten Network and alternative network-controlled platforms will include, but is not limited to:
More than 35 football games each season More than 105 regular season men’s basketball games A nightly studio show including segments from each campus Women’s sports, including basketball, volleyball, soccer and softball More than 170 Olympic sporting events including baseball, soccer, tennis, volleyball, swimming, diving and more Classic games and historical footage from ESPN and ABC libraries Original campus programming produced by Big Ten member universities showcasing their academic excellence, talented students and award-winning programs Weekly coaches shows
Located in the historic Montgomery Ward building in Chicago, the Big Ten Network is the fi rst national television network to call the largest city in the Midwest its home. The original section of the building was designated as a historic landmark in 2000 for its signifi cant role in American retail history. The space includes two studios and three control rooms as well as a 20,000 square-foot offi ce space. In May of 2007, the Big Ten Network announced its fi rst on-air hire, signing ESPN college sports expert Dave Revsine to be its lead studio host. Revsine joined ESPN in October of 1996 as an anchor for ESPNews and fi lled a variety of roles for the network over the past 10 years. The Northwestern graduate has anchored SportsCenter, hosted ESPN Radio’s College GameDay for the last six years and hosted ESPN Radio’s coverage of several BCS Championship games. He also hosted studio halftimes for basketball and co-hosted ESPN’s coverage of the last two men’s Final Fours. In addition to airing more coverage of Big Ten sports than ever before, the Big Ten Network will also provide numerous benefi ts to communities around the Big Ten. Those include increased exposure for women’s sports, providing positive role models for girls; a greater economic impact to the communities from added sporting event production, with the potential to generate higher attendance; and greater national exposure for the excellence that surrounds the academic endeavors of Big Ten universities, some of the most highly regarded in the nation. Also, an internship program at each of the 11 universities will offer students training for careers in sports, television and entertainment. The Big Ten Network is a joint venture between subsidiaries of the Big Ten Conference and Fox Cable Networks. For more information regarding the Big Ten Network, visit BigTenNetwork.com.
