1. Welton Ideker Marker
A lifelong native of Mound City, Missouri, Welton Ideker served on the Northwest [Missouri State University] Board of Regents from 1977 to 1983. Always a progressive thinker, during his Board tenure, Welton endorsed the Regents' vote to pursue alternative fuels, an initiative that would later lead to world-wide recognition for the University. Through the contributions of his son, Ron, and Ron's wife, Martha, the Southeast Entrance to Bearcat Stadium is named in his honor.
Erected by Northwest Missouri State University.
