It’s fun talking sports on our weekly KC Tiger Club zoom calls. It's also fun talking about things off the playing surface. Like the PowerMizzou Journalism Alumni Scholarship that @GabeD started this spring/summer.
(I know it has been talked about here, but I thought it worthy of bringing up again.)
On our call Tuesday, we asked Gabe about the story in the current Mizzou alumni magazine (page 13). As is his style, Gabe downplayed his part in the story, saying he was just a sportswriter who didn’t even know what an ‘endowed scholarship’ was when Howard Richards mentioned it. But don’t let Gabe’s demeanor fool you. He put his money where his mouth is and raised $53,535.09 for the PowerMizzou Journalism Alumni Scholarship.
Check out the Donor Wall on the link … a veritable Who’s Who of the Mizzou Mafia. You should be proud, Gabe, on the job well done!
Here’s Gabe talking with Mark Fitzpatrick about the scholarship and the paid internship that goes along with it.
