The University of Missouri, also known as Mizzou, is a public research university located in Columbia, Missouri. Founded in 1839, it was the first public university west of the Mississippi River and is the flagship campus of the University of Missouri System. Mizzou is known for its strong programs in journalism, veterinary medicine, and agriculture, among others. The university operates the world’s first journalism school, established in 1908, which remains a top institution for media studies. Mizzou is a member of the Association of American Universities and participates in NCAA Division I athletics as part of the Southeastern Conference. The campus is distinguished by its beautiful columns, which are remnants of Academic Hall that burned down in 1892, and now serve as an iconic symbol of the institution.
