Places/Landmarks to see in West Lafayette, Indiana [closed]

I will be visiting Purdue university to give a talk in a week. Unfortunately the only free hours I will have are the evening of the 10th of March and that of the 11th of March. I checked Tripadvisor for "tourism" worthy spots in the area but was disappointed. It would seem that Purdue University itself seems to be worth "looking" at.

What would a business traveler do for two evenings of tourism in West Lafayette, Indiana. I will be staying close to Purdue University.

Options I am looking for are: Old/Important landmarks, Landmark areas at Purdue, good food (Mexican, Italian, fusion, $-$$)? Or is it just Purdue that will have to be my "entertainment"? :)
