Our hearts are heavy after the news of the passing of Rondale Moore, a 2020 White Lodging-J.W. Marriott, Jr. School of Hospitality and Tourism Management alumnus. He will always be remembered as a true Boilermaker.
The Purdue Football family is deeply saddened by the news of Rondale Moore’s tragic passing. An All-American with an infectious smile, Rondale was a joy on and off the field. Someone who left this world too soon, Rondale will be remembered as a legendary Boilermaker. Our thoughts and prayers are with Rondale’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.

Lundon Burton lives with what he researches. The PhD candidate for @HKPurdue was only a teenager when he first suffered the effects of atrial fibrillation, a type of arrhythmia characterized by fast/irregular heartbeats in the upper chambers of the heart. purdue.edu/hhs/news/2024/02/…

👟 It's #WellnessWednesday and #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, so today we're focusing on the importance of physical activity. Physical activity has been referred to as one of the closest things to a ‘wonder’ or ‘miracle’ drug that has very few side effects.
