The spring issue of UM St. Louis magazine was released last week. The issue includes a story about “The West the Railroads Made,” an exciting national exhibit at the St. Louis Mercantile Library. There’s a piece on the research of University of Missouri-St. Louis gerontologist Thomas M. Meuser, who has studied the efficacy of a Missouri law that’s designed to prevent older, unfit drivers from getting behind the wheel.

And the cover story informs readers about how four university alumni are contributing to the St. Louis-area food scene. Click here to download a copy of the magazine. (Adobe Reader is required.)
