Favorite thing about MU: Just being here. I love walking around campus looking at the campus landmarks such as Francis Quadrangle and Tiger Plaza and randomly running into friends that I’ve made while at Mizzou. It’s a great place to be and it’s given me the best college experience I could have imagined. I love it.
Favorite Homecoming tradition: The blood drive. Other than that weird smell that seems to permeate the HearnesCenter, our blood drive serves as a role model around the country. It’s incredible to see the entire Mizzou family unite to do such a great thing and I enjoy both donating and volunteering at the event every year.
