The Purdue Engineering Fountain serves multiple purposes beyond just being a water fountain. It acts as a colorful work of art at night and is a popular spot for students to walk between classes, relax, socialize, and take photos. The fountain is also part of Purdue's annual Fountain Run tradition. While its main function is as a water fountain, it provides students with an iconic gathering place on campus.
