A reunion to remember
Just a few days after we wished our newest alumni well, we welcomed the class of 1966 back to campus for the Golden Alumni Reunion hosted by the Miner Alumni Association. Fifty-four of these alumni returned to campus, having made a mark on the world as teachers, engineers, authors, CEOS, inventors, researchers, veterans, parents and grandparents. You can see some snapshots from the reunion here.
In many ways, 1966 was a pivotal year for Missouri S&T. Not only was our computer science department launched 50 years ago, but the University of Missouri System Board of Curators also granted us approval to begin offering a bachelor’s in engineering management. Both of these academic developments would greatly influence the university’s growth for decades to come.
Getting to know our Golden Alumni and learning about the influence the university had on their careers and lives is a true honor. To all of our graduates – those young and young at heart – I wish you happiness and fulfillment in all your endeavors. |
