YOU BELONG AT MILLSAPS. You have to see it to believe it.

“In my heart, I knew that large schools with as little job and life experience I had back then would completely overwhelm me. What sold me was that Millsaps would allow me to explore who I was as a writer in a more intimate learning experience.” — CANDACE McKENZIE, CLASS OF 2021 Emerging Reporters Fellow, Mississippi Today
