Purdue Athletics Giving Money to Academics

4

This article identifies Purdue as one of only 10 universities which gave more money back to their respective schools than they had received in subsidies. Since our Athletic Department receives $0 in subsidies, this makes sense. However, what is shocking is that all of the other universities on the list are blue blood football programs, with the exception of Kentucky which has a blue blood basketball program.
