For the 18th year in a row, the Callaway County chapter was recognized at Mizzou Leaders Day Sept. 22 as a Capstone Chapter. Representing the chapter in receiving the award were Mike Conner, chapter president 2016-18 and Tim Conner, chapter president 2014-16.
Established in 1995, the Callaway County Alumni Chapter is one of only a few chapters nationally to achieve Capstone status—the highest level of achievement in the Mizzou Alumni Association’s Chapter Recognition Program—every year since the award was established. This distinction allows the chapter to earn scholarships for local students, as well as funds for chapter activities.
To be eligible for Capstone recognition, alumni chapters must complete 18 activities that include goal-setting, leadership training, alumni and student engagement, membership recruitment, supporting MU athletics, maintaining an online presence and award nominations.
