DEERY HONORS PURDUE'S COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING: State Sen. Spencer Deery (R-West Lafayette) presents Senate Concurrent Resolution 7 today, which celebrates the 150th anniversary of Purdue University's College of Engineering. As a former Purdue employee, Deery has seen the important work of the College of Engineering and was honored to present the resolution before the full Senate.

"In the last 150 years, Purdue engineers have defended our nation, walked on the Moon, fueled our economy, and redefined what's possible," Deery said. "It's more than appropriate for the state to pause and celebrate that history on this anniversary, and I am proud to lead that commemoration in the General Assembly on behalf of Boilermakers everywhere."
