Like your avatar! Went to Purdue for a year (2002-2003). Stayed in hilltop my first semester cause Cary quad was being renovated in a few wings. Second semester spent in tarkington Hall.
That's awesome, congrats! My uncle tells me stories about finding cars for cheap. People getting rid of them b/c "won't start, don't know why" and he would put a new battery in it and clean up the connections and drive it out of their garage... much to their dismay XD

Fellow Boilermakers are always fun to meet. I've been in some of those dorms. Had a lot of friends living there. I actually didn't spend my freshman year at Purdue, so I only lived in apartments during my 3 years there. Good times indeed.
