70th Anniversary

Macy Brecklein, a 2021 Mississippi State University graduate, first set her sights on MSU after touring the campus as a high school junior and immediately recognizing it as the place she belonged. “The people, campus, and educational opportunities were unmatched,” said Brecklein.

Alex Forbes, a 2021 Mississippi State University graduate, chose MSU during his college search after noticing the sheer amount of success MSU meteorology majors had in obtaining jobs after college.

“Mississippi State’s steady rhythm drew me in,” said MacKenzie Paul, a 2023 MSU graduate. “The beautiful campus, southern charm, close knit community, and easy living sang to me. I didn’t begin my career in the College of Arts & Sciences, but soon after beginning my studies, I realized my interests were shifting keys. Transitioning to the CAS allowed me to study the ideas that resonated most deeply with me: human relationships, emotions, theology, and philosophy. Joining CAS was like stepping into a choir where every voice mattered, and where the arts and sciences blended into a rich harmony that finally felt like my own song.”
