Close by the Wabash
In famed Hoosierland,
Stands Old Purdue
Serene and grand,
Cherished in memory,
By all her sons and daughters true.
Fair Alma Mater,
All hail Purdue,
Fairest in all the land,
Our own Purdue.
Fairest in all the land,
Our own Purdue.

A reception was held on Saturday, May 13, 2006, immediately after a total of 185 Pharmacy graduates (157 Pharm.D., 28 BSPS) had walked across the stage in the Elliott Hall of Music. The School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Class of 2006 and their family and friends were welcomed in the lobby of the Heine Pharmacy Building following commencement exercises.
The annual reception gave ample opportunities for those last minute hugs and Kodak moments. The new alumni were also able to pick up their complimentary mortar and pestle sets, alumni pins, and class coffee mugs as mementos of their time at Purdue.
