Purdue Events Calendar API (Localist tenant)

Purdue's public events calendar at events.purdue.edu serves a live JSON events API on the Localist v2 contract. The events are Purdue's; the API is Localist's. events.purdue.edu is a CNAME chain to purdue.enterprise.localist.com and the responses carry the vendor's own x-slzr-platform header set to "purdue" - a textbook institution-branded tenancy. Recorded as a relationship; Localist's generic contract is not stored under this institution. Note that calendar.purdue.edu is a separate Purdue-hosted page and does not serve this API.
