Tippecanoe County, Indiana
Tippecanoe County is where Indiana decides to get a little weird. Home to Purdue University, it’s a place where rocket scientists rub elbows with farmers.
Engineering students build robots next to cornfields. One has blue-collar grit, the other has an ivory tower attitude. But somehow they make it work. And let’s not forget the name.
Lafayette is the county seat, and its twin city West Lafayette are like the odd couple of the Midwest. Tippecanoe. Try saying that five times fast after a few pints at one of the local breweries.
