Admissions Counselor

Lafayette College, a highly selective, private liberal arts college of 2,700 undergraduates, located in the picturesque Lehigh Valley and the historic city of Easton, PA (just 75 minutes from both New York City and Philadelphia), plans to appoint an admissions professional to help lead the College’s effort to recruit, select and enroll new classes of students. Offering B.A. and B.S. degree programs in the liberal arts and engineering, Lafayette enjoys a distinctive reputation for having university-like resources within an intimate and increasingly dynamic and connected community. Lafayette is proud to be considered among the most compelling and successful colleges in the country. The successful candidate will play a key and active role in helping elevate Lafayette’s presence on the national and international stage.

General responsibilities for this position include managing all aspects of in-person and virtual (online) recruitment work for an assigned territory:

● representing the College at college fairs and high school visits; ● conducting interviews and group information sessions; ● evaluating admissions applications; ● developing and tending to relationships with students, parents/guardians and school/community-based organizations/independent counselors.

The successful candidate must hold a bachelor’s degree, and be willing to travel domestically and possibly internationally. Extended hours during the academic year, including evenings and weekends (when necessary) are the norm. The team seeks a teammate with an appreciation for the power of a liberal arts education and who can effectively engage students from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds. Excellent communication, interpersonal and organizational skills are expected, as well as the ability to work as part of a team and manage multiple projects concurrently. A high level of energy and an excitement for young people and their aspirations for college opportunities are critical components to being successful in this role.

Purdue-created technology makes 3D microscopes easier to use, less expensive to manufacture

Liming Chen, who will earn his PhD in mechanical engineering from Purdue in May 2024, operates a 3D microscope, which uses an optical technique called fringe projection to create a high-resolution 3D image of tiny objects, such as this micro-sized robot. (Purdue University photo/Jared Pike)

Electronically tunable lens changes the imaging system’s focal plane without moving parts

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Researchers in Purdue University’s College of Engineering are developing patented and patent-pending innovations that make 3D microscopes faster to operate and less expensive to manufacture.

Traditional, large depth-of-field 3D microscopes are used across academia and industry, with applications ranging from the life sciences to quality control processes used in semiconductor manufacturing. Song Zhang , professor in Purdue’s School of Mechanical Engineering , said they are too slow to capture 3D images and too expensive to build due to the requirement of a high-precision translation stage.

“Such drawbacks in a microscope slow the measurement process, making it difficult to use for applications that require high speeds, such as in situ quality control,” Zhang said. 

Research about the Purdue 3D microscope and its innovations has been published in the peer-reviewed Optics Letters and the August 2023 and March 2024 issues of the peer-reviewed Optics and Lasers in Engineering. The National Science Foundation awarded a grant to conduct the research. 

The Purdue innovation

Zhang said the Purdue 3D microscope automatically completes three steps: focusing in on an object, determining the optimal capture process and creating a high-quality 3D image for the end user. 

“In contrast, a traditional microscope requires users to carefully follow instructions provided by the manufacturer to perform a high-quality capture,” Zhang said.

Zhang and his colleagues use an electronically tunable lens, or ETL, that changes the focal plane of the imaging system without moving parts. He said using the lens makes the 3D microscope easier to use and less expensive to build. 

“Our suite of patents covers methods on how to calibrate the ETL, how to create all-in-focus 3D images quickly and how to speed up the data acquisition process by leveraging the ETL hardware information,” Zhang said. “The end result is the same as a traditional microscope: 3D surface images of a scene. Ours is different because of its high speed and relatively low cost.”

The next developmental steps

Zhang and his team have developed algorithms and created a prototype system in their lab. They are looking to translate their research into a commercial product.

“This will require an industrial partner,” Zhang said. “We are certainly interested in helping this process, including sharing our know-how and research results to make the transition smooth.”

Zhang disclosed the innovations to the Purdue Innovates Office of Technology Commercialization , which has applied for and received patents to protect the multiple pieces of intellectual property. Industry partners interested in developing or commercializing the work should contact Matt Halladay, senior business development manager and licensing manager, physical sciences, at [email protected] , about track codes 2016-ZHAN-67257 , 2023-ZHAN-69939 and 2024-ZHAN-70619.

2025 three-star OL Takhyian Whitset commits to Purdue

Purdue football has landed its first offensive line commit in the 2025 recruiting class, as three-star tackle Takhyian Whitset announced his decision on Tuesday evening.

The Tennessee native holds a three-star rating and a 5.6 Rivals Rating, choosing the Boilermakers over other offers from Vanderbilt, Toledo, UAB, Liberty, East Carolina, and others.

Whitset visited West Lafayette a month ago and scheduled an official visit for June prior to his commitment. During his first trip to campus, Purdue felt like home to the now future Boilermaker.

"It felt at home. I feel like it was genuine. The players were nice. They were welcoming, coaches were welcoming. I feel like it's a brotherhood," Whitset said. "You can't ask for anything better than that."

Whitset's best attribute is his athleticism, which Purdue was looking to add to the trenches in the 2025 recruiting class. His size, strength and speed figures to allow him stick at tackle during his collegiate career.

Boiler Upload broke down the Volunteer State native's game back in March:

"On tape, the 6-foot-5 and 250-pound Whitset utilizes his footwork well, which stems from a background on the hardwood, and gives him the ability to move with quicker pass rushers. Whitset also has a high motor, consistently finishing blocks and getting downfield when necessary. Whitset plays left tackle for Antioch, where he could stay at the collegiate level with his fundamentals and raw talent."

Purdue now adds its sixth commit in the 2025 class, as Whitset joins the 35th ranked class in the country, according to Rivals.
