On Thursday, I joined Associate Vice Chancellor of Campus Facilities Michael Graves in hosting a thank-you lunch for the crews who kept campus safe during the recent winter weather. In addition to clearing streets and sidewalks, Campus Facilities teams also helped prepare Memorial Stadium for a rare snow game on Nov. 30 against the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Associate Vice Chancellor Graves, Chief of Staff John Middleton and I all expressed gratitude for the dedication of Campus Facilities team members. Their resilience supports Mizzou faculty, staff and students during the winter months and throughout the year.

Mizzou has more than 650 Campus Facilities staff who ensure we deliver our mission of teaching, research and meaningful engagement. I enjoyed meeting so many team members and showing our appreciation. They are an integral part of the Mizzou community.
