We are proud to serve a worldwide network of 250,000 Mizzou alumni. Your volunteer leadership represents a portion of our diverse, vibrant and loyal membership base. While Mizzou has many cherished traditions, the tradition of alumni support is one that we foster by our actions and commitment to the Asso- ciation and the University.

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.) As part of the sesquicentennial celebration, the Association adopted a new brand - The Mizzou Alumni Association. 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. Among them was Jerry Dorsey, a leading Columbia citizen of that period. According to a newspaper report, Dorsey watched with interest as workers carried off the chard remnants of Academic Hall. He was appalled to learn one day that Gideon Rothwell, president of the board, had ordered a pair of mule teams hitched to one of the Columns, with instructions to tear it down. “Mr. Dorsey sought Mr. Rothwell and protested against the destruction of the Columns, who insisted that they were a menace and dangerous,” according to the newspaper account. “Mr. Dorsey declared that the Columns could not be pulled down by a herd of elephants, whereupon Mr. Rothwell announced that they were coming down if he had to dynamite them. The argument became heated, Mr. Rothwell struck at Mr. Dorsey and Mr. Dorsey upheld his Kentucky traditions and returned the blow. Spectators separated the combatants and the controversy continued in a battle of words.” At this point, Dorsey may have charged off to the courthouse to get a writ of injunction against tear- ing down the Columns. But writ or no writ, alumni got wind of the board’s plot and added their voices of protest. In fact, the president of the Mizzou Alumni Association (MAA) Gardiner Lathrop, made a persuasive speech to the curators, according to a story that engineering Professor Luther “Daddy” Defoe (association president in 1903-04) used to tell. A 1924 account goes like this: “Following a brilliant plea before the board, during which Lathrop pleaded with tears in his eyes that the Columns be preserved intact, a plan was presented that the whole of the elevated campus (now Francis Quadrangle) be cut away, except for a small tract around the Columns, which should be terraced into mounds, to rise above the level of the campus.” This time around, the board resolved that its previous resolution was a bad idea. After Lathrop’s speech, Mr. Rothwell stated “Let the Columns stand. Let them stand for a thousand years.” In many ways, imagining Mizzou without its beloved Columns is like trying to imagine a strong university without alumni support. It is only fi tting that more than 100 years later, the MAA Long Range Planning Committee penned a mission statement that begins with “The Mizzou Alumni Association proudly supports the best interests and traditions of Missouri’s fl agship university and its alumni worldwide.” Mizzou and MAA: Through the Years... 1839 entomologist, helps save the French wine industry Boone County wins its bid to locate the University in from an aphid by grafting French vines onto resistant Columbia.

The station’s tradition for educating journalists continues with students including Maurico Bush, left, and David Earl. Photo at left courtesy of University Archives, C:0/3/8 Box 2. 2011; photo at right by Rachel Coward Mizzou was on the leading edge of journalism education in January 1954, when KOMU-TV officially hit the mid-Missouri airwaves. The only station in the region for its first few years, KOMU broadcast programs from four networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, DuMont) and produced original programs, says Rod Gelatt, professor emeritus of journalism. When Gelatt arrived in 1963 and took over as news director, several of KOMU’s programs were strictly educational. That legitimized the station’s mission early on because other broadcasters feared competition for advertising dollars, he says. For instance, the station aired Of Interest to Women, a homemaking show hosted by Esther Griswold, and Twilight of the Sioux, a show about Native Americans hosted by English Professor John Neihardt. But in news circles nationwide, KOMU was (and still is) best known for educating broadcast journalists using the Missouri Method. It’s a trial-by-fire approach that sends students into the community to do what professionals do — gather news and report it to the public every day on deadline.

The rally started in Peace Park to stand with local Muslims. A representative of the Islamic Center of Central Missouri led about 200 people from the park to the mosque at the corner of Fifth and Locust streets, where they were greeted with cookies, snacks and juice. The marchers left their signs and flowers on the front steps of the mosque and then returned to Peace Park. CPD faces allegations of illegally recording client-attorney calls The complaint was filed against the Columbia Police Department by attorney Stephen Wyse on Jan. 23. Wyse filed the complaint after he read about a drunk driving case in the Columbia Daily Tribune, in which cops violated attorney-client privilege by covertly observing and recording the conversation. Federal law makes it illegal to intentionally intercept, disclose or use any wire, oral or electronic communication through the use of a “device,” and law enforcement officers may only wiretap a conversation in which one of the parties involved in the conversation has consented to the recording.
