Signing of MU-UMCOE Foundation affiliation document by Thomas Hiles, Vice Chancellor for Advancement, Dean James Thompson, College of Engineering, and Ward Chambers, Foundation President, on May 8, 2013.
In May 2013, the University of Missouri formally recognized the UMCOE Foundation as an Affiliated 501(c)(3) organization. The Affiliation document was signed by the Foundation President, the COE Dean, the Vice Chancellor of Advancement, the University Chancellor and the University Curators. The Foundation has been working with the University Advancement Office as they formalized their Affiliation documents and processes, obtaining approvals through the Chancellor’s offices and the Board of Curators. The UMCOE Foundation is the first “NEW” Foundation to receive this status. This affiliation allows contributions by our donors to be recognized not only by the COE Shamrock Society but also by the University Jefferson Club. The Foundation also agrees to abide by Affiliated Organization Policies and Procedures.
