By Alan Plastin

Do you go to school at Purdue University? Are you a fan of college football and college basketball? Do you cheer for the Boilermakers? Do you have someone playing for one of their great teams? If so, then an extremely simple and affordable way to show your team pride is by purchasing Purdue University personal bank checks.

Founded on May 6, 1869, Purdue University has the largest student body of any other university in the state and is situated in West Lafayette, Indiana. Purdue also contains the largest international student population of any public university in the entire country.

A founding member of the Big Ten Conference, Purdue is home to 18 Division I/I-A NCAA teams that include football, cross-country, wrestling, basketball, tennis, golf, volleyball, and other sports.

For the basketball teams, Purdue's men's team has an all-time winning record against all of the Big Ten schools. Both the men's and women's basketball teams have won more Big Ten Championships than any other school in the conference.

Joe Tiller became head coach of the football team in 1996 and since then the Boilermakers have made a bowl appearance every year except in 2005 and 2008. Both Kickoff and Football News named him National Coach of the Year. He was also named the GTE Region 3 Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association and the Big Ten Dave McClain Coach of the Year.

The Boilermakers call Ross-Ade Stadium home. Named after its benefactors David E. Ross and George Ade, it can hold approximately 62,000 people and opened in 1924.

The Boilermaker Special, Purdue Pete, and Rowdy have been some of the school's mascots. The Boilermaker Special is meant to look like a train and symbolizes Purdue's engineering program. In 1887 Purdue's official colors of old gold and black were adopted.

If you are truly a devoted fan then you might want to consider the Purdue University #1 Fan check series. These checks, featuring a cartoon image of a fan, are for the devotees that know all of the players' stats, shout at the coaches, and buy tickets way in advance for any game.

In addition, you can guy Purdue University checks that have the official colors and the school's logo. Both of these series contain matching accessories like a matching leather checkbook cover, address labels, and contact cards.

Don't forget that if you want to order checks you can do it online. Not only will you have more designs to choose from, but you can save as much as 50% off the price that you might have to pay at your bank. There are quite a few reputable websites out there that will not only save you money, but also get your checks to you in around 5 days. In the past, when you ordered them at your bank, it sometimes took up to 2 weeks to get them.
