MSU proposed name change to SU
Jefferson City – The president of Missouri State University, Dr. Michael T. Nietzel, said he proposed last week that the University of Missouri support a name change for his institution and discussed enhancing collaboration between the two universities.
Support for the name change would coincide with the school’s centennial and ¼ score anniversary, the MSU president’s proposal noted in its first point. Ron Richard, state legislator, yesterday said the name change would likely increase enrollment at the institution as “students appeal to the idea of attending a ‘State University’”.
