Scope and Contents

From the Sub-Series:

The Rose Bowl sub-series contains material from Purdue’s participation in the 53rd Rose Bowl vs. University of Southern California on January 2, 1967 and versus Washington in the 87th Rose Bowl, January 1, 2001. Included is an extensive report and press releases from the University News Service in 1967. 2,000 copies of the report were sent to all Indiana newspapers, radio and TV stations; the special newspaper, radio and TV Rose Bowl lists; internally to deans, directors and department heads. The report includes examples of publicity material used. The objective was to provide the news media with information about Purdue University other than the football team and athletic program.

Also included are programs and a pictorial from 1967, tickets from the game (1967) and event invitations (2001). The series is rounded out with alumni publications from other universities which feature stories about their Rose Bowl experiences, 1950-1957.
