Our weekly program, Missouri State Journal, is a collaboration between KSMU Radio and Missouri State University. It’s hosted and produced by MSU’s Office of Strategic Communication, and it airs each Tuesday morning at 9:45 on KSMU.
The Missouri State University community celebrated the 8th Annual Fountain Day on April 16, where students, faculty and staff came together to turn on the 100,000-gallon John Q. Hammons Foundation for the season.
It’s a celebration made possible by the Missouri State Traditions Council. This student-run group, is not only responsible for this spring event but 62 total traditions on campus.
Becca Metcalf, a Missouri State senior majoring in management and leadership, is also spirit events chair with Traditions Council. She helps keep each tradition alive and well, but says just because something is a tradition does not mean it can’t change.
