UMKC’s Favorite Moments of 2013


We reflect on a year of fun, progress and connections

The University of Missouri-Kansas City’s 80th anniversary made 2013 an especially memorable year. We celebrated major gifts, expanded facilities, revitalized UMKC athletics, and put students first.

But in reflection, it’s often the little moments that stand out as much as the big headlines. Our Favorite Moments of 2013 show the UMKC community doing what it does best: Celebrating achievements, bringing in world-class speakers, and engaging with the community.
