A noted bow-tie aficionado, Chancellor R. Bowen Loftin brought his signature fashion statement to Mizzou when he joined the Tiger family in February, instantly raising the bar for campus attire. As we prepare to dress up for commencement ceremonies and other fancy end-of-the-semester events, Mizzou students, faculty and staff are stepping up Tigers' style and mastering the fine art of tying a bow tie — with varying degrees of success (and authenticity; we're on to you, Truman). Join us. Grab a bow tie. We'll show you what to do.
