First there is the mystery of Purdue University freshman, Wade Jeffries. Wade, a 19-year old student who was and engineering major and honor student disappeared after attending an on-campus fraternity party. After leaving the party, in which witnesses stated he wasn't drinking, Wade disappeared. He has been missing since January, 13, 2007. An extensive search of the Purdue campus has come up fruitless. His cell phone battery died a few days after his disappearance and has yet to be found. Amazingly, there is another male
Purdue University student missing as well.
Missing Student Last Seen In El Paso Area
(Source)--El Paso police are looking for a student who's missing from Purdue University in Indiana. Investigators said Eric Michael Campbell, 33, flew into El Paso on Jan. 11, where he met a friend who took him across the border to attend a wedding in Juarez that weekend.
On Jan. 15, Campbell was scheduled to fly back to Indiana from El Paso but he never made the flight."From what we have, the information we have right now, he never made it back home. Now, his luggage did, which suggests that he may have come back from Mexico." said Javier Sambrano of the El Paso Police Department.
If you have any information about Campbell's whereabouts, El Paso police would like you to give them a call at 832-4400.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Purdue police are involved in a search for a second missing student, but investigators do not believe the cases are connected. Doctoral student Eric M. Campbell disappeared during a trip to Texas and Mexico, while freshman Wade Steffey was last reported seen at a fraternity house in West Lafayette.
"The timelines are different," Purdue spokeswoman Jeanne Norberg said in a news release Tuesday. "Wade was last seen shortly after midnight Jan. 13.
Campbell was in El Paso on Jan. 12 and then arrived in Mexico at 8 p.m. that day." Campbell's luggage arrived at Indianapolis International Airport after he bought a ticket to fly back to Indiana from El Paso on Jan. 18, investigators said. But Norberg said there is no evidence the 33-year-old student ever boarded the flight.
Campbell, of Avilla, left campus on Jan. 8 to travel to El Paso en route to a wedding in Juarez, Mexico. Purdue police contacted police in El Paso 10 days later after he did not return. A friend of Campbell's who lives in Mexico told police he had returned to the United States on Jan. 15, and police confirmed that he bought an airline ticket to Indianapolis in El Paso on Jan. 18, but never arrived.
Campbell's mother told police that she has not heard from him, Norberg said. "Friends and colleagues are puzzled and are hoping to hear from him," she said. Campbell, who had worked as an engineer in Mexico after receiving a master's degree from Purdue in 2000, had recently enrolled as a doctoral student at the West Lafayette campus.
