Departments across the University of Missouri Campus teamed with Mizzou Athletics to bring more than 2,000 underserved youth from the St. Louis, Mo., area to last Saturday's Mizzou Football game vs. South Carolina for the 'Mizzou Youth Experience.' The program gave children an inside look at the college experience and all the benefits of pursuing a college degree.
Tickets to Saturday's game vs. South Carolina were just the beginning for the more than 2,000 children who were in attendance. The group received a campus tour led by the Mizzou Ambassador program. A program of Mizzou Athletics speakers followed with talks from Howard Richards, Brian Brown and Mizzou Wrestling Coach Brian Smith. The group then moved to Memorial Stadium for Mizzou's game vs. South Carolina.
