This Is Purdue: Ep. 59 - Rusty Rueff on How Purdue Community Impacted His Successful Career

In this episode of “This Is Purdue,” we’re talking to College of Liberal Arts alumnus Rusty Rueff, a philanthropist, investor and advisor.

Listen in as Rusty discusses art’s crucial relationship to humanity, leading the company Electronic Arts through the video game industry boom, his role in President Barack Obama’s second presidential campaign and how his mother’s mantra, "tomorrow will go a lot better if you lay your clothes out the night before," guided his life and career.

Recognizing that many of his own life’s fortunes stem from relationships, experiences and opportunities born out of Purdue, Rusty also discusses why he feels compelled to give back to the University and what the Boilermaker community means to him.
