Join in July 2025 - VIB CUSA
Join in July – Celebrate a New Era as a VIB!
Missouri State University is officially joining Conference USA on July 1—and we’re inviting you to be part of this historic moment!
To celebrate this exciting new chapter for MSU Athletics and the entire campus community, we’re kicking off our Join in July campaign. When you make a gift of $50 or more to the Missouri State area you care about most—whether that’s scholarships, the Bear Pantry, your academic college, or Athletics—you’ll become a Very Important Bear (VIB) and help launch the next era with impact.
PLUS – all July VIBs will be entered to win:
- Tickets to a Conference USA home football game
- An exclusive on-field VIB experience during the game!
This is more than just a gift—it's your chance to fuel student success, support the teams you love, and celebrate Missouri State’s bold move into Conference USA.
New conference. New opportunities. Same Bear pride.
Join in July and be part of something big.
VIBs also receive the following benefits:
- A 20% discount* at the Missouri State Bookstore and the Great Southern Bank Arena Team Store.
- Receive all three Missouri State magazine editions.
- Duane G. Meyer Library privileges.
- Opportunity to purchase a membership to the Foster Family Recreation Center.
- Access to the Hammons Student Center (with payment of daily usage fee).
- Exclusive MSU address labels.

*Only Missouri State alumni who make a gift of $50 or more to a qualifying area are eligible to become a VIB.
