Family Matters
The faculty and staff of Mississippi College consider it a privilege to have been chosen to be part of your changing family dynamic and are excited to support families launching students into adulthood.
Students will be empowered across the campus—in classrooms, in dorms, and on stages and fields—to make decisions and navigate this new world. As the students embrace their autonomy, you too will begin to embrace the freedom found in a new stage of parenting.
Your role as part of the MC family is vital to the MC experience and to the lives of all our students.
Opportunities of service for parents and families include:
- Volunteering on Special Event Welcome Committees
- Expanding MC’s Office of Career Development
- Recruiting the next generation of Choctaws
- Celebrating our athletes throughout their seasons with tailgates and picnics
- Connecting with like-minded families
- Serving in philanthropic leadership with MC Foundation
