One of the most important functions of the Missouri State Alumni Association is to recognize outstanding alumni, faculty, staff and friends of the University at Homecoming. Thankfully, this is also one of the easiest parts of the job. After all, we are convinced that every Bear is exceptional.
The honorees from this year have proven that life is the Ultimate Adventure — the theme of Homecoming 2009 activities. They include an alumni group that sets the pace for all other chapters, a doctor who served the campus for more than 30 years, a rising political figure and an Emmy-winning television writer.
