WARRENSBURG, MO 鈥� The history of the 欧美视频 mascot, the mule,
is the topic of an exhibit currently featured in the showcase just outside the Harmon
Computer Commons on the first floor of UCM鈥檚 James C. Kirkpatrick Library.
鈥淢ancow,鈥� 鈥淟ittle Mo,鈥� 鈥淢o the Mule鈥� and 鈥淎bbedale鈥� are all names of current and former
mules that have been or are currently UCM鈥檚 mascot. UCM alumna Wendy Hawkins, library
assistant at the James C. Kirkpatrick Library, has created an exhibit that shows the
University of Missouri mules throughout the university鈥檚 history.
鈥淭he Mule is an impressive creature with a rich history at UCM and in Missouri,鈥� Hawkins
said. 鈥淟ike UCM itself, they are independent and strong, but are invaluable as a team.鈥�
The current mule, Mancow, lives at UCM鈥檚 Prussing Research Farm and can be seen at
UCM football games and special events.
The exhibit will be on display until January 1, 2016.
