Rise to 200 will provide funds to establish and support signature programs that advance MC’s vision.

True Blue Pathways Program
The True Blue Pathways Program is a two-year, inclusive college experience at Mississippi Christian University designed for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities who want to continue learning, growing, and preparing for what comes next.

Center for AI Policy & Technology Leadership (CAPTL) Program
MC’s Center for AI Policy & Technology Leadership (CAPTL) is a collaborative initiative between the MC School of Law and MC School of Business. CAPTL aims to drive responsible and innovative AI use across various sectors, serving college students, professionals, policymakers, and industry leaders.

Institute for Southern Storytelling
MC’s Institute for Southern Storytelling exists to inspire positive change through the power of story, focusing on the people, places, history, and values of the American South. It provides a platform for authentic Southern narratives through film, writing, music, visual art, and cultural preservation.

Center for Military & Veteran Services
The Center for Military and Veteran Services is a new initiative to support MC’s growing population of military-affiliated students, including veterans, active-duty service members, spouses, and dependents. The center will serve as a centralized, physical space on campus where military- connected students can access academic advising, financial aid guidance (including GI Bill benefits), mentorship, social support, and a sense of belonging.
