The Missouri State Student Alumni Association is proud to announce that the 2019 Be a Bear T-shirt sales raised $7,441.46 for the Emergency Scholarship Fund! Every year, the Student Alumni Association hosts a contest to collect student designs for the annual Be a Bear T-shirt. One selected student design is sold starting on March 24th, at the Missouri State Birthday Party, up until the conclusion of Homecoming weekend. The shirts are sold at the Missouri State Bookstore.
Approximately half of the proceeds from each shirt sold are donated to the Emergency Scholarship Fund. This specific fund serves to meet the needs of students who experience an unexpected tragedy that may affect their ability to continue their education at Missouri State University.
The Student Alumni Association is currently accepting student designs for the 2020 Be a Bear T-shirt design! The winner will get their design on the 2020 T-shirt, a byline, Apple Air-pods thanks to the Missouri State Bookstore and a prize pack from the MSU Alumni Association. Students should review guidelines and submit their design here by November 18th.
