Mizzou Alumni Association

On the eve of Veterans Day, we remember Gen. John A. Gordon, BS '68, Mizzou icon and former Deputy Director of the CIA, who passed earlier this year. He served 32 years in the U.S. Air Force before accepting the role of first administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration.

A perfect match! Read about the success of this Mizzou Mentoring partnership, and how intergenerational connections among Tigers can benefit everyone involved.

When our Homecoming Steering Committee came together in February to take this photo, no one could have predicted the turn this year would take. They've gone above and beyond in meeting incredible challenges, and kept our traditions stronger than ever. We are incredibly thankful to all of you, Mizzou Homecoming Steering Committee - thank you for making this year a Timeless and True celebration to remember.

Congratulate some of our newest Tiger graduates submit a personalized note to welcome them to our alumni family! Sign up by Nov. 15 to receive your assigned students. Help us make sure every single graduate this December is matched!

This year's Mizzou Homecoming Tiger Food Fight, benefiting The Food Bank for Central & Northeast Missouri, brought in 11,319 pounds of food for our local community! That's in addition to over $1000 in cash donations as well. Thank you to our incredible Tiger family for making a difference in the spirit of #MizzouHomecoming. Fight Tiger, Fight Hunger!

This year's virtual Griffiths Leadership Society for Women series begins today! We're kicking things off with Simone Esters, Miss Missouri 2019 and current Mizzou senior, as she introduces us to her social impact initiative, "Leave Your MARK." Follow our Fall Conference Series by using #GriffSociety throughout the week!

This year, Tigers joined in near and far to give blood, donate food, raise money and more for charitable causes in their area. Our thanks to presenting sponsor Veterans United Home Loans for helping to make this year's Homecoming events and activities possible!

Happy Halloween, Tigers... This positively haunting image of the Quad, created by Blake Dinsdale (BA '99), was featured in the latest edition of MIZZOU magazine, a benefit of membership in the Mizzou Alumni Association!

We are honored to present Dr. Gus T. Ridgel, MA ’51, ScD ’96, as our newest member of the Mizzou Hall of Fame.

Ridgel Graduate Fellowship supports underrepresented minority graduate students to this day. Our thanks to Commerce Trust Company, the presenting sponsor of the Mizzou Hall of Fame.
