On Friday, April 13, members of the campus community held their annual gathering at Karl Van Norman Field to truly spell out their support, forming R.E.D. in human letters.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s commemorative t-shirt distributed to participan\"\"ts was designed by Alexis Anthony after a campus-wide contest for students. The text on the shirt reads, \u201cMiles Apart, Always in Our Hearts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The R.E.D. Friday movement was born of an idea from then MU student, now graduate, Cecil Cooper, an Army veteran, in 2014. \u00a0It is organized by the MU Student Veterans Organization (MUSVO).<\/p>\n
