Paint the Little Rock
The Legacy, the student chapter of the Alumni Association, paints the Little Rock in the District every Tuesday at 2:15pm in the fall and spring semesters. As the spring semester has begun, we are encouraging student organizations to participate in painting the Little Rock. It is a great way to inform students, faculty, and staff about your organization on campus, major student events on campus, and a way to provide motivational and encouraging messages to our athletic teams. The Legacy provides all paint and paint brushes for painting the Little Rock, unless there is a specific color the student organization would like to use. In this case, the organization will need to purchase the specific paint on their own. 
If your organization is interested or if you know of another student organization who would like to participate in painting the Little Rock, please fill out the following form
