Fostering
an environment that embraces diversity

Once here, our students find support through
Minorities in Agriculture, Natural Resources and Related Sciences
(MANRRS), an option club that provides students of color with academic
assistance, networking opportunities and career development in agriculture,
natural resources and related sciences. Club members also serve
as mentors for high school students in Junior MANRRS chapters from
Growth in Agriculture through Education (GATE) in Fort Wayne and
STAR Academy in Indianapolis.
As we implement these new programs and initiatives,
we continue to strive to foster a welcoming environment for all
students, faculty and staff—whether African American, Asian
American, Hispanic American or Native American—to become part
of the Purdue Agriculture community.
