About
The 1866AA
Let’s take a moment to reflect on the profound impact of The 1866 Alumni Association, Incorporated. The Association was established in 1876 1878, and it was officially certified by the Secretary of State of Missouri in July 1978. However, in June of 2025, the name was changed to “The 1866 Alumni Association, Inc.” The Association is dedicated to charitable, educational, cultural, patriotic, literary, and scientific endeavors.
We have an essential mission—to encourage qualified students to attend Lincoln University of Missouri and to support the acquisition of necessary funds for the university’s operations and growth. By promoting higher education standards at the university and backing its various initiatives and programs, we are actively helping to its development and success.
As we move forward, we call upon all alumni and supporters to join hands in upholding the legacy and core principles established by our visionary founders, Laura C. Banks, Maxine E. Fisher, and Earl Wilson, Jr. Your participation is not just welcome but crucial in preserving and promoting the values that define our alma mater.
