The Mississippi State University Alumni Association hosted its 2024 Leadership Conference at The Mill in February. The annual celebration recognizes the contributions of alumni leaders and volunteer members, while cultivating meaningful engagement and investing in the association’s grassroots network.

Aiming to educate, empower and celebrate Bulldog alumni, the annual conference provides valuable networking and idea-sharing opportunities through interactive activities. In addition to new alumni chapter officer orientation and the association’s annual business meeting, participants also hear updates from key university representatives and other staff and volunteer leaders.
