Prospective Students Are Invited to Attend Show Me Days at SEMO
Prospective students and their parents are invited to attend Show Me Day on Saturday, April 7, on the campus of Southeast Missouri State University.

“Show Me Day is an opportunity for individuals interested in Southeast to visit our campus and see the wide variety of academic programs and services we offer,” said Lenell Hahn, director of Admissions.

“Students can learn about Southeast’s admission process, meet with faculty from our academic departments, and interact with current Southeast students,” Hahn said. “We are thrilled to have students and parents here to explore and experience our vibrant and growing campus community.  We want them to get as much information as possible during the day so they feel confident when they choose Southeast.”

The day will begin with registration at 9:30 a.m. in the Show Me Center. Students are then invited to browse through a Student Life Fair after they register from 9:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. The fair will allow prospective students to meet Southeast students and staff from areas such as Campus Ministries, Career Services, Dining Services, Greek Life, Academic Support Centers, Residence Life and the Honors Program.

The day will officially begin at 10 a.m. with a presentation by the director of Admissions, followed by an introduction of Southeast admissions staff and student leaders. Prospective students will also have an opportunity to meet Southeast’s Redhawks mascot, Rowdy.  Following the presentation, an Academic Fair will take place in the Student Recreation Center east gym, and will feature informational displays of the University’s various academic departments.

After participating in the Academic Fair, prospective students may attend presentations on financing their education, living on campus, diversity and inclusion, and transferring to Southeast. Show Me Day will conclude with a tour of campus and the opportunity to dine during lunch in Towers Café.

“Southeast is fortunate enough to have award-winning dining facilities, and we want our guests to experience the quality and value offered to our students,” Hahn said.

Students interested in learning more about Southeast can visit a number of special events from 1-3 p.m. These will include open house events for the Department of Art, College of Education, Department of History, Department of Polytechnic Studies, Harrison College of Business departments of Accounting, Economics and Finance, and Management and Marketing, Jane Stephens Honors Program, Rust Center for Media, and the Catapult Creative House. Tours of the River Campus and Greek Hill also will follow lunch.

To register for the event, visit semo.edu/showmeday. For more information please contact Marlee Russell, special events ambassador, in the Office of Admissions at (573) 651-5945 or showmeday@semo.edu.

Neal E. Boyd Endowed Scholarship in Performing Arts Established
The Neal E. Boyd Endowed Scholarship in Performing Arts has been established through the Southeast Missouri University Foundation.

The fund was established by Boyd and two fraternity brothers.  The scholarship is awarded to a student enrolled at Southeast Missouri State University majoring in performing arts with a minimum 3.0 grade point average. The recipient of this scholarship must demonstrate financial need, and preference will be given to students involved in leadership activities such as Greek Life and the Student Government Association.  Boyd himself was a student with need, who received scholarship support, and he was involved with the performing arts and a leader in Student Government, the Interfraternity Council, the Residence Hall Association, and Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity.

Boyd earned two undergraduate degrees – a Bachelor of Arts in speech communications and political science from Southeast and a Bachelor of Arts in music from the University of Missouri-Columbia – and continued his education at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, before a fulfilling career that has included teaching, business, public speaking and performing.

He is a recipient of Southeast’s Distinguished Service Award.
