The Award
"The foundation is Purdue, but the success is your own. ”
The Hall of Fame Award honors alumni of this department who have made a significant contribution to the varied fields of foods and nutrition and established a unique record in their work and life. The Hall of Fame also honors the careers of those who have contributed to the growth and prominence of this department, though not alumni of this department.
Foods and Nutrition has been a department in the College of Consumer and Family Science, formerly Home Economics, since its inception in 1927. To highlight successful graduates from these many years is a daunting task. But this inaugural group stands out. They are truly exceptional!
Please congratulate the six individuals inducted for 2005. They have made significant contributions to academia, to industry, and to their communities. They have proven the value of a Purdue education and they have created a standard for future graduates. They have brought honor to the Department of Foods and Nutrition and to Purdue.
