Hello, everyone! My name is Emma Vytlacil, and I’m honored to be your 2024-2025 Senior Class President. Over the past four years, we’ve all joined organizations, started new jobs, and formed lasting friendships. Now, as we approach graduation, it’s time to consider how we’ll leave our legacy at Missouri State University.
One of the most impactful ways to do this is by participating in the Senior Class Gift. This philanthropic initiative encourages us to contribute $20.25 (or more) to any area on campus that holds personal meaning to you.
When deciding where to donate, consider the places and experiences that have shaped your journey at MSU—the departments, scholarships, or campus spaces that made a difference in your life or in the lives of others.
As a token of appreciation for your contribution, you'll receive a special commencement cord, available for pickup at the Winter Grad Finale in December or Grad Bash in May, along with a keepsake mug. Participating in the Senior Class Gift is a meaningful way to make our final Missouri Statement as students before we transition into proud alumni.
Let’s show our gratitude to the places and people that made our time here unforgettable.
MUG AND CORD PICK-UP
Join us for the 2nd annual WINTER GRAD FINALE, at Best of Luck Beer Hall, on Thursday, December 12th from 8 PM – 10 PM!
