Despite the lingering COVID-19 pandemic that has had a negative impact on scholarly activities, institutions of higher learning across the country are riding a new wave of increasing enrollment as incoming and transferring college students appear eager to continue their academic journeys. That's especially true at Mississippi College. However, the University's improving enrollment numbers aren't just attributable to a declining worldwide pandemic, according to Hannah Richards, director of enrollment marketing and communications at MC. "We see across the board that our students are not just attracted to the price point we ask or to the location we're in, but to the unconditional warmth and community they find on our campus," Richards said, "in conjunction with professors at the top of their fields who also make themselves available to students in a myriad of ways, on campus and off, in churches and in small groups. "Students get to experience all of this when they come to MC for a visit, and I think it's incredibly attractive." The "personal touch" of new student recruitment at MC extends all the way to the top. Last year, Dr. Blake Thompson, Mississippi College president, wrote more than 500 personal notes to students who attended one of the many regional recruitment events hosted by the University. "Our new student numbers are up, year over year," she said. "A lot of that is due to our regional strategy. Our regional recruiters have proven to be an effective piece of the recruitment model, connecting with even more students on their home turf." Between January and April, MC's Office of Admissions hosted about 800 prospective students in 18 recruiting events across the Southeast. Richards said the recruiters concentrated on four areas in particular: Birmingham, Memphis, the northern shore of Louisiana and the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. The recruiters invited small groups of interested students to dinner at local restaurants or coffee shops to meet with MC faculty members, students and admissions counselors and learn about life at the Christian University. Along with hosting academic Select Scholars Competition and Transfer Scholar Competition - events that attract 120 to 150 students vying for valuable scholarships - and receptions of up to 150 prospective students, the less-formal, individualized meetings are a hit with incoming freshmen and transfer students alike.

Giving flu shots on the Clinton campus or working at a health fair, Mississippi College senior Tracy Metcalf discovered her calling in life as a nurse. A Jackson mom with twin 11-year-old girls, Metcalf was among nearly two dozen MC nursing students volunteering Tuesday at the Mississippi Baptist Convention. The students offered advice to MBC visitors about proper nutrition, sleep requirements, along with vision and hearing needs. Flu shots and blood screenings were available as well. Taking part at the October 29 health fair at First Baptist Church Jackson proved invaluable to Metcalf. The Memphis native appreciates the first-class training she receives at the MC School of Nursing. "We have caring professors," the Memphis native says. "There's more personal connections with students," she adds. "The Christian caring aspect is huge." On track to graduate in December, Tracy Metcalf will work as a full-time nurse at Baptist Hospital in Jackson after receiving her diploma. Other student nurses enjoyed helping Baptist pastors, their spouses, church staffers and other guests at the MBC meetings. "It's a good opportunity to reach the population we normally don't see," says student nurse Hannah Carraway. At her table, the Brandon resident encouraged visitors to consider reading glasses as a way to see better. For more than two decades, Mississippi College student nurses conducted health fairs at Mississippi Baptist Convention meetings in the capital city. Joining them, nursing professor Deborah Bolian reports there were 22 graduating seniors offering assistance for several hours at the convention's opening day. Stopping by the health fair, MC President Blake Thompson tossed a football to a couple of student nurses for a few moments. He took time to speak with many of these future healthcare professionals. There were plenty of people with MC connections taking part in convention activities. Student choirs from Mississippi College, Blue Mountain College and William Carey University teamed up to perform on stage. Their beautiful worship songs were well-received by hundreds of guests at the church sanctuary Tuesday morning. Loaded with brochures, Mississippi College's information table near one for the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary attracted a steady flow of foot traffic. Founded in 1826, MC is America's second oldest Baptist College. Business professor Billy Morehead, Wayne VanHorn, dean of the School of Christian Studies and the Arts, and Evan Lenow, the university's new director of church and minister relations, made the rounds. So did staffers including Danny Rutland of the Office of Advancement and Chad Phillips of Alumni Affairs at Mississippi College.
