    • A welcoming place

      Mississippi University for Women

      28 May 2008

      Mississippi University for Women welcomed me and was my home for four special years. It is the place where I made some of my closest friends for life and where I was taught to believe in myself, my God-given gifts and graces, and where I was given untold opportunities to be a leader. This welcoming place shaped my life in ways which I am still discovering today. I knew it was the place for me from the minute I stepped on campus and was given a personal tour by Dr. Neil Woodruff, then chair of the Department of Journalism. He was warm, witty and welcoming to my family and me, and he set the tone for the unique educational experiences I was offered over the next four years. The rich history and traditions of MUW, not to mention its beautiful campus, made it an extraordinary place to learn and live. Mississippi University for Women certainly made a mark (a Lovemark?) on me.
