Tag Day Celebrates Truman Donors

This week hundreds of donated items will be marked with distinctive purple tags in honor of Tag Day.
Every year, thousands of alumni, faculty, staff, parents and friends of the University donate to make a Truman education possible. These donations help fund the Truman experience through scholarships, hands-on learning opportunities, athletic competitions, research, cultural enrichment and so much more.
Since 2013, Truman has celebrated the impact of generous donors on Tag Day by marking hundreds of donated items with distinctive purple tags. A few notable campus landmarks and buildings made possible by donations include Pickler Memorial Library, the Villhard Innovation Lab, the Del & Norma Robison Planetarium in Magruder Hall and the Sandra K. Giacchino Reavy Sesquicentennial Plaza, including the fountain, gardens, benches and the bulldog statue. These and many more items will be tagged between Nov. 10-14. Donations also fund intangible parts of the Truman experience such as scholarships and cultural events that benefit each and every Truman student.
In celebration of Tag Day, the Office of Advancement will give away free hot chocolate from 1:30-3:30 p.m. Nov. 11 on the mall.
