Comments on: Missouri S&T named nation’s most underrated university https://news.mst.edu/2018/11/missouri-st-named-nations-most-underrated-university/ Your source for the latest from Rolla Thu, 27 Dec 2018 22:28:54 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.7 By: Glenn W Brand https://news.mst.edu/2018/11/missouri-st-named-nations-most-underrated-university/#comment-198068 Thu, 27 Dec 2018 22:28:54 +0000 https://news.mst.edu/?p=24930#comment-198068 A little more publicity may help-know we are all over linked in. Over Thanksgiving week I drove up I44 thru Oklahoma, Joplin, Springfield and into STL. Included a stop in Rolla each way, for gas Alex’s pizza going up, and gas on the way back. Not ONCE I see any clothing ( including St. Pats wear) or vehicle stickers for the univ. I wore green the entire trip, and was not once asked anything about Rolla, even sitting in a bar in STL during a UMC ( I don’t use the M word) football watching party.

I know the name change didn’t help, I am still asked about the “Rolla School of Mines” or similar while working at college fairs on our alma matter’s behalf.

My advise, pu a sticker on your car, wear a shirt, put a logo on your desk so your co workers can ask about it

MO S & T ranks higher on the annual Wall Street Journal survey for many reasons.
Even there, the data collected does not give complete credit for the outstanding access our students have to the faculty nor to the many new facilities added recently to campus. It takes much effort to publicize what we offer. Keep Trying!
