I grew up there too and my mom graduated from there back in the 80’s. They should have sold the land to Mississippi State years ago. The campus is decent but in a terrible part of town


My sister graduated from there in ‘86. She was there her junior and senior year on a softball scholarship, then returned there in ‘90 as an athletic trainer working with the basketball and softball programs. I think she left from there in ‘95 or ‘96. I haven’t visited there since.

Those who lived there refresh my memory…didn’t a tornado hit campus sometime in the early 2000’s? If memory serves, the gym was destroyed and they actually shut down the athletic programs for several years.

It was more severe straight line winds and it tore up a lot of the town. I was in elementary school then and remember being huddled in the halls all day. Then when we walked outside there were limbs, trees, playground equipment thrown all about
