Julie Dussliere planned to become a diplomat. She just didn’t expect that it would be as chief of Paralympics for Team USA. As a Purdue swimmer in the 1990s, Julie Dussliere never expected to work in sports after college. Once she finished her bachelor’s degree, Dussliere (BA Russian ’94) intended to complete a master’s program, and then it was on to law school. International diplomacy was in her future. And that’s what happened — just not the way she envisioned it at the time.
