2008 Homecoming Open House a Huge Success

On October 23, the MU Libraries held its 7th annual Homecoming Open House after the Homecoming parade. Well over 500 attendees enjoyed cider and coffee, muffins, family activities and some fun library giveaways. Thanks to all of the Library Staff who helped out with this event:

  • Cindy Cotner helped our visitors get in the spirit by making tiger masks.
  • Libby Myre applied “Go Tiger” temporary tattoos to many of the children in attendance.
  • Kathy Peters handed out cool tiger stripe balloons.
  • Liz Criswell, one of our Student Ambassadors, greeted visitors and guided tours.
  • Gary Cox set up a display of University Archives MU football memorabilia.

Attendees were grateful to the Libraries for providing refreshments and family activities after the parade, and they were very interested in the MU football display. This has become a great Homecoming tradition. If you didn’t make it this year, don’t miss it next year!
