Supporters of the Ross Biological Reserve

For many years, ecologists in Biological Sciences have been developing outreach programs at the Reserve and we want to continue and expand our outreach programs! More than ever, ecological understanding is a fundamental part of the University's mission of improving scientific literacy in our community. This goal requires a base of operations, developing new programs and infrastructure for outreach and university teaching, strengthening the research mission based in the Alton A. Lindsey Field Laboratory, and improving protection of the habitat by housing a graduate caretaker.

We are grateful to more than a hundred alumni and friends who have made possible for us to get the new building started. We are poised to finish building in 2017.

We hope you will join us in supporting this important new venture for the Ross Reserve.

Please send donations (or pledges) to Jeff Lucas, Biological Sciences, Purdue University, 915 W. State St., W Lafayette IN 47907 (checks to "Purdue Foundation: Ross Reserve Fund") or contribute online at the Ross Reserve Fund.
