to the Purdue Memorial Union. History
Even before the Union was built, the Student Union Board was an active organization dedicated to serving the Purdue student body and assisted with the funding to build the Purdue Memorial Union. In 1920 the first Student Union Board consisted of five students, today there are over 100 members. As a department of the Purdue Memorial Union as well as a recognized Purdue University student organization, PSUB has provided Purdue students, faculty, staff, and the Greater Lafayette community with programs and services for over 80 years. Activities
Every day PSUB works hard to bring fun-filled excitement to the lives of the students, faculty and staff of Purdue University and citizens of the Greater Lafayette area through programming, event planning, and project presentations. These events range from monthly feature films to dinner theatre. People from all walks of life are invited to attend and enjoy these events- many of them at no cost! So, if you want to have an exciting night, make a PSUB event your number one choice. You can also check out our online calendar for a complete schedule of events. Think PSUB..., think fun!
