Commencement Reception - May 13, 2007

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.

-- The Purdue Hymn

A reception was held on Sunday, May 13, 2007, immediately after the 185 Pharmacy graduates 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 outside the Heine Pharmacy Building following commencement exercises.
