Advancements magazine is a twice-a-year publication for donors and friends of the Missouri State University Foundation. It tells the stories of how private giving supports and transforms Missouri State.
Advancements Magazine
The Missouri State University Office of Advancement team is moving! Our new building
will give you a “living room” on campus. It will be your place to come home and celebrate
being a Bear at every stage, from student to alumni to donor and friend.
Hotel Nikko’s Manager In Training program, set up by alumna Anna Marie Presutti for

experience for the Bears who participate. Learn more about this amazing program and
find out all about what's new at MSU.
Foundation scholarships help student entrepreneurs reach their dreams. Caitlin Jedlicka
loves to capture images of cattle. Brandon Stockstill sells smoothies, acai bowls
and more. Both received scholarships that helped them build businesses while completing
their studies. Read stories like Caitlin's, Brandon's and more in the Spring 2023
edition of Advancements Magazine.
