It is our privilege and honor to print highlights of each alumnus’/alumna’s life in Alumni Line magazine, which is published twice per year. In order for us to publish a memorial in the magazine, we require the following materials:
• Newspaper or funeral home obituary, or typed obituary from family
• A recent high-resolution, digital photograph (preferably a headshot)
• For print photos, please scan a copy and submit the digital file to us, via email. All published obituaries require a high-res photo.
Remembrances in Alumni Line magazine focus on an individual’s connections to the school, as well as key events and accomplishments. We aim to keep a balance between these important points and obituary length in order to honor as many deceased alumni as possible.
For questions regarding this process, please contact us at 573-681-6070 or
alumni@lincolnu.edu.
