    On the occasion of the Mizzou Alumni Association’s sesquicentennial, the association asked a researcher to dig up its history. The story is one of loyal alumni and citizens acting on behalf of Mizzou. (Perhaps what says it best is the legend of how alumni and locals saw to it that the Columns became Mizzou’s foremost campus icon.) MU alumni and citizens gather at the base of the Columns in the days after a fi re that destroyed Academic Hall in 1892. Keep your hands off these Columns he Mizzou Alumni Association was founded in 1853, but perhaps the best story that encapsulates its meaning to MU comes from a tenuous time in the University’s history. It’s the story of loyal alumni Tand citizens acting on behalf of Mizzou and how the Alumni Association saw to it that the Columns became Mizzou’s foremost campus icon. The inferno that consumed Academic Hall in 1892 somehow spared the six limestone Columns. To many alumni and Columbians at the time, they quickly became an enduring symbol of all they held dear about the University. But to others, including the University’s Board of Curators, the Columns looked out of scale with the new University buildings they hoped to construct around them. They resolved that the Columns would have to come down. Few people now know – perhaps because it weakens the legend – that the board originally intended to leave the Columns in place or reposition them on campus. But the board changed its mind, and some alumni and locals didn’t like it.
