My school is best known for its school spirit. Everyone loves being a part of a school where the students are so supportive of the athletic teams and the wonderful clubs Mizzou has. The whole town is a fan of the University because everywhere you go, someone is sporting a Mizzou logo on their car, in their store and even on their clothes. I appreciate all the support my fellow students show because it makes me feel so much more comfortable knowing that we are all one big family.
