Bicentennial Celebration of the founding of MS College; commemorate.
This resolution (SR 10) formally commemorates Mississippi College's bicentennial in 2026, marking 200 years since its founding on January 24, 1826. It honors the institution's history as Mississippi's oldest college and the second oldest Baptist college in the U.S., highlighting its contributions to education, its Christian mission, and its role in developing leaders across Mississippi. The resolution has no policy or funding provisions - it is purely ceremonial, extending recognition to the college's students, faculty, and administration. It was adopted by the Mississippi Senate in early 2026 with no reported opposition.
