On Thursday, we announced a remarkable gift from Paul and Lynn Ann Vogel to our School of Accountancy in the Trulaske College of Business

Their support will provide unmatched experiences to our accountancy students, including scholarships, academic advising and career placement services. Thanks to their generosity, we will also appoint another full-time accountancy faculty member to advance our programs and prepare students to achieve excellence. We were proud to announce that our existing master’s program will be named the Paul and Lynn Ann Vogel Master of Accountancy Program in their honor. 

The Vogels know the power of a Mizzou education. Paul Vogel is a prominent MU alumnus from the School of Accountancy and Mizzou Law. He remains deeply connected to campus, including as a member of the Trulaske Dean’s Advisory Board. Together, the Vogels achieved incredible career success and are now dedicated to making a difference for a new generation of Tigers. 

Supporters like Paul and Lynn Ann Vogel ensure we attract world-class faculty and prepare students to lead our state and nation. We are grateful for their generosity and enduring commitment to Mizzou.
