A few ways you can support the Racer family are listed below but for a complete list of opportunities to support Murray State University, visit the Office of Development.

The Black Alumni Network continues to grow and provide alumni another opportunity to support a lasting legacy!

Black Alumni gather to celebrate the trailblazers every five years during Homecoming with the next celebration planned for Homecoming 2021.
