More details about our solution can be found at our </span>[http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Purdue_University_Strategic_Priorities Purdue Strategic Priorities page]<span style="font-size: small;"> and on our </span>[http://boilerdriver.com / BoilerDriver website]<span style="font-size: small;">. </span>
