2008 Tiger Pride Award Recipient Larry Fuller, BS Ed '71 Larry Has Displayed His Tiger Pride for More Than 37 Years! One Of 2008 2008 Tiger Pride Award Recipient Larry Fuller, BS Ed '71 Larry has displayed his Tiger pride for more than 37 years! One of the places Larry and his family settled before coming back to Boone County was in Kansas City. While in KC, Larry was on the KC Alumni Board and coordinated the KC “Friends of Mizzou” Picnic and Auction. Over time, that annual event has raised more than $100,000 to support student scholarships. Larry began his work with the Boone County Alumni Chapter more than 18 years ago. In that time, Larry has served 5 years as the President of the chapter, he has hosted countless watch parties and committee meetings at his house at his own expense, and he has been a tireless fundraiser. From golf tournaments to “Mizzou Night with the Arts”, Larry has always been focused on the Chapter’s primary goals of providing scholarships to the best and brightest students from Boone County while at the same time enjoying the company of fellow Mizzou Alumni and friends. Larry’s efforts have not been contained at the local level. He served on the Alumni Associations International Board from 1997-2001 and just yesterday he began serving another term with the MAA Governing Board. He also works with the Phoenix Arizona chapter to line up a terrific Mizzou experience for at-risk 6th graders who travel from Arizona to campus each winter to learn more about the value of attending college and specifically about attending Mizzou. And, not to be contained by US borders, Larry has also been known to share his tiger pride all over the world. There was Oktoberfest in Germany that Larry will have to tell you about later because we are out of time and cannot possibly tell you all of the wonderful things that Larry has done for our Mizzou. Congratulations to Larry Fuller, our 2008 Missouri Tiger Pride recipient. 2008 Tiger Pride Award Recipient Corky J. Knock, BS PA '57 It should say something about the individual impact and charisma of a leader when he can be recognized simply by his greeting on the phone, . “Hey, Tiger. How are things in Columbia?” That voice of pride belongs to this year’s Regional TIGER PRIDE AWARD recipient, Corky J. Knock. Corky is a founding member of the Tornado Alley Tigers and serves as the Membership Chair for this chapter, serving the greater Wichita, Kansas area. The chapter credits him as the driving force that increased the chapter’s dues paying membership by 50% over a two year period. And while the measureable impact of Corky’s efforts are impressive, it is the intangible benefit of what he does to promote and celebrate Mizzou that is perhaps most notable. It is not always easy to show your Tiger stripes in Kansas’ largest city -- surrounded by what Corky refers to as “those bird things”. Still, through many years of service, Corky has retained and inspired pride in Ol’ Mizzou. It is important to note that with Corky, we really get 2 for 1. His talented and gracious wife Kathleen is also an important part of the chapter’s success. And while she may be a Berkeley graduate herself, she has a heart that bleeds black and gold and we know that he shares this award with her. While we all enjoy the camaraderie and fun of chapter involvement, it is people like Corky that remind us that at its core, alumni relations is about maintaining and supporting the ties that connect us to the University of Missouri. Corky demonstrates this with his actions and inspires us with the way he LEADS for Mizzou. To state it simply, and in the words of one of his nominators, “CORKY KNOCK ROCKS!” Congratulations to our 2008 Regional TIGER PRIDE AWARD recipient, Corky J. Knock. 2008 Mizzou G.O.L.D. Award Recipient Blakely J. Pryor, BS BA '99, JD '02 Blake Pryor has been recognizes as a valuable member of the Kansas City Chapter. During his leadership tenure, he has been instrumental in saving the chapter money for a new website, building a Kid Zone with his wife Kelli for the Friends of Mizzou Annual Picnic, and leading the Tiger Ball Steering Committee to have record attendance and raising funds of over $116,000 in two years. Furthermore, he created and implemented a new electronic reservation and auction check-out systems to streamline the chapter operations. Blake has been active at Mizzou since his student days. He is an alumnus of Alpha Gamma Sigma Fraternity, was a member of the Interfraternity Council Executive Board, made the MU’s Dean’s List, played the euphonium in the University Band and was “tapped” for Omicron Delta Kappa (ODK) and the Rollins Society. His impressive resume doesn’t stop there. Among his accolades, he was a finalist of the Mock Trial and Moot Court Competitions, became a co-chair and member of the Board of Advocates for the Fall Moot Court Company, and won the Best Production Award for Most Valuable Contribution to the Missouri Law Review’s Production. His nominators recognized that Blake’s “‘volunteer spirit’ shines through in all his work for the Kansas City chapter.” Blake’s service to the association and his altruistic nature, provide the picture of volunteerism that we recognize tonight. The judge and jury of the Mizzou Alumni Association proudly have reached its verdict to provide the 2008 Regional Mizzou G.O.L.D. Award to Blakely Pryor. 2008 Mizzou G.O.L.D. Award Recipient Misty Jackson, BS HES '00 A passionate alumna and selfless leader, Misty Jackson embodies the Tiger spirit as an enthusiastic and dedicated volunteer of the Mizzou Alumni Association. Volunteers are at the heart of the Association, and Misty understands the essential role they play in spreading the black and gold throughout Tiger nation. Misty recognized the importance of service and volunteerism early on during her time at Mizzou. She served as President of Little Sisters of Pearls & Rubies, was a member of the Homecoming Core Committee, and was active with the Association of Textile and Apparel Management. As a member of these organizations, she also participated in Rockin’ Against Multiple Sclerosis and numerous blood drives. When Misty earned a degree in Textile and Apparel Management from Mizzou in 2000, her connection to the University of Missouri only strengthened. Misty moved to St. Louis where she immediately got involved as an alumni volunteer with the Gateway Tigers. She was active with one of the chapter’s signature events, the Roarin’ Reunion, and eventually co-chaired the committee. She later chaired the chapter’s social committee and held the position until her job took her to New York City in 2006. It was at that time that Misty met fellow alumni and got involved in reorganizing the Metropolitan New York City Alumni Chapter. In her role with the chapter as social chair, Misty was very dedicated to planning fun and unique events to engage local alumni. As New York City chapter president Tom Downs noted in his letter of support, “Misty Jackson is woven into the DNA of the chapter, and every success that the chapter has achieved, can, in some way, be attributed to the hard work of Misty.” Last summer, the chapter lost this talented volunteer when she moved back to St. Louis. But as they say, one chapter’s loss is another chapter’s gain, and now that Misty is back in St. Louis, she is once again involved with the St. Louis Alumni Chapter and serves as the young alumni committee chair. For her outstanding leadership, service and dedication to MU, the Mizzou Alumni Association is proud to present the 2008 Regional Mizzou G.O.L.D. Award to Misty Jackson. 2008 Alumni Legacy Award Harold H. (Hal) Lurie, MD Dr. Hal … Lewd Lurie from Southern Missouri… the Singing Doctor… all names for Harold (Hal) Lurie, the first recipient of the Alumni Legacy Award. Hal Lurie was born in Springfield, Missouri, the son of Lithuanian immigrant, Ed Lurie and his wife Jeanette. In Springfield Dr. Lurie obtained his primary education and subsequently earned a high school diploma and 3 college degrees in 4 different states, from coast to coast. Following his medical residency in St. Louis, he returned to Springfield and has been a citizen of that city since 1952. His career as an internist spans more than 5 decades and continues today as a part time consultant for Cox Health in Springfield. Above, beyond and throughout this exemplary career, Hal has made time to be a proud supporter of Mizzou – through this words, actions and his generous donations. Dr. H has been active at the University of Missouri Medical School Alumni Organization and the Medical School Foundation, having served as president of both. In addition Hal has been president of the Greater Ozarks Alumni Chapter and served a two year term on the Mizzou Alumni Association Board of Directors as a district representative from southern Missouri. During his term as president of the Greater Ozarks Chapter, Hal planned a caravan to a football game. He made all the arrangements and only called the alumni office to ask for assistance with making the trip more enjoyable for the alumni guests. This caring for others’ comfort is a hallmark of his career as a physician as well as his volunteerism for Mizzou. One of Hal’s proudest activities is his participation with the Singing Doctors of Springfield, Missouri. This group sang at medical meetings across the country for more than 30 years. The group recorded 7 albums and sold the records to raise funds to help support medical students.

    2009 ANNUAL REPORT VISION The Mizzou Alumni Association shall be the pre-eminent resource for the University. MISSION STATEMENT The Mizzou Alumni Association proudly supports the best interests and traditions of Missouri's flagship university and its alumni worldwide. Lifelong relationships are the foundation of our support. These relationships are enhanced through advocacy, communication and volunteerism. 2 Front: Photo of the Columns and Jesse Hall by Notley Hawkins. www.notleyhawkins.com “The Association makes MU stronger by supporting the university programs and traditions that alumni value. Whether it's student scholarships, faculty research, athletics, your school or college, or traditions such as Homecoming, the Mizzou Alumni Association supports it all. Todd McCubbin Executive Director Mizzou Alumni Association his past year was record-setting for the University. Enrollment hit an all-time high at nearly 31,000, fundraisers bested the $1 billion mark, and more Tiger football T fans bought tickets than ever before. The Mizzou Alumni Association got in on the action, too, when we reached a record level of membership of 40,144 members in May. Although the number itself is impressive, what the association does with your membership dollars matters most. We surveyed alumni about what comes to mind when they think of the association, and a top response was “money” — as in, we ask for it regularly. I cringed the first time I heard that. But upon further reflection, I'm OK with it. The Association makes MU stronger by supporting the university programs and traditions that alumni value. Whether it's student scholarships, faculty research, athletics, your school or college, or traditions such as Homecoming, the Mizzou Alumni Association supports it all.
