“The “ 25/85” vision will put Purdue among only 5-10 Division 1 Universities who achieve both athletic and academic excellence each year. With 351 Division 1 programs, the 25/85 members are at the 98th percentile- a high performance bar but one we will continue to strive to achieve. In 2013-14, we were 48/82 which will put us at about the 86th percentile.

29 In memory of Tom Reiter

“Tom was an inspiration to everyone associated with the Boilermakers. He was a confidant for our student-athletes, coaches and staff, and was always ready to offer a kind word or share his keen sense of humor. Our memories of him will fuel us moving forward.”

MORGAN BURKE Director of Purdue Intercollegiate Athletics

“Coach Reiter was a lot more than a great coach and administrator. He was an unbelievably well-rounded person. He was very intelligent in a lot of areas, but at the same time, he could relate to everyone he talked to. You always felt when you talked with him as a colleague, mentor or coach that he had your best interests at heart.”

MATT PAINTER Men’s Basketball Head Coach

“Tom was both insightful and honest--learned from year of coaching to be both mentor and whip at the same time. He spent time with you as an individual, face-to-face. He knew when to whisper in your ear, pat you on the back or simply pick you in the pants. Invaluable as a leader, he provided direction in the toughest times and was the first to congratulate you on a job well done. He will always remain in both heart and mind!”
