Favorite Thing about MU: I love the fact that Mizzou is absolutely steeped in tradition. Whenever I am walking on campus, I just have this deep feeling that I am part of something special that belongs only to the Mizzou family. We are so lucky to have a university with such pride and history, and I think it makes every student’s time here more meaningful.
Favorite Homecoming Tradition: The Homecoming parade. Ever since I was a little girl, my parents would bring me to watch the MU homecoming parade and it was always one of my favorite days of the year. I remember sitting on my dad’s shoulders and watching the floats and cars going by and just being amazed by it.
