Another Visit to the Bulldog

Again I have fallen a week behind on post. Here is a short update on from the week I missed. I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a consortium regarding the Mississippi Delta. I had a second opportunity to visit the Social Science Research Center at Mississippi State. There, multiple partners had gathered in an effort to brainstorm ways to genuinely assist the Delta. Sustainable, community-led development was the goal of the consortium. Over two days many academics, foundation members, research students, and program directors hashed out the challenges of the Delta, discussed current programs, and came up with a plan of action that would enable a broad yet deep assistance to the region.
