This Is Purdue - Full Video Interview with Krannert Alum and Purdue University Trustee Shawn Taylor

In this episode of “This Is Purdue,” we’re talking to Shawn Taylor (Management ’82), a successful entrepreneur and the newest member of the Purdue University Board of Trustees.
Listen as Shawn describes his childhood growing up on the south side of Chicago, his experience as a first-generation college graduate and the impact Purdue’s very own Dr. Cornell A. Bell, the former director/chairman of the Business Opportunity Program (BOP), had on his life both pre- and post-college.
Plus, you’ll hear about Shawn’s next giant leap as a Purdue trustee and his advice for developing relationships with people who are authentic, real and honest - and why it’s key for your career.
This emotional and motivating episode showcases true Boilermaker persistence and spirit!
