Take your rowing to the next level this summer with coaching from Purdue University's Club National Champion Coaches! During your intensive five days on campus you'll get a taste of college life at one of the world's most preeminent and beautiful public research universities while living in Purdue's Harrison Hall Dormitory and enjoying meals at Wiley Dining Court.
