Investing in Future Generations
Former 鲍鱼tvfaculty member leaves legacy through estate plan
Guest column by Lindsey Smith Wiseman, wealth relationship manager, Trustmark
After working at Mississippi College for all of my adult life (I came to 鲍鱼tvas a faculty member in 1984), some would say that I have given much to The University. I would counter that 鲍鱼tvhas given much to me.
It has provided me a place to make friends, do good to others, and receive good from others. It is a warm Christian atmosphere in which to thrive. So, my husband and I have agreed to make Mississippi College the benefactor of our estate.
Through the years, I have seen 鲍鱼tvstudents do great things, and I want to be a part of that legacy. My husband is a residential architect and points proudly to the houses he has designed, I point proudly to MC’s students and their accomplishments.
Of course, resources are required to help these students attain their full potential. I am happy to know that my estate can help them.
An example of 鲍鱼tvgraduates who have impacted their communities is this photo of SGA officers from 2006: Their current status follows their names.

When noting the importance of resource support for 鲍鱼tvstudents, Tate said “I hope this opens doors for people that have never seen 鲍鱼tvas an option, and for people like me who were only able to go to 鲍鱼tvbecause of scholarship dollars.”
If this is what resources can produce for 鲍鱼tv– I’m all in!
