Jsu Academic Affairs No Confidence Vote
SUMMARY: Jackson State University‘s president, Dr. Marcus Thompson, expressed disappointment with the faculty senate’s “no confidence” vote after just a few months under his administration. The vote was against the office of academic affairs, specifically under the leadership of Associate Provost Dr. Brandi Newkirk Turner. This is the second no confidence vote against Turner, and the documents state that the faculty senate expressed concerns to Provost Dr. Alisa Mosley about Turner’s leadership over the past two years, but nothing has been addressed. Jackson State alumni and state representative Christopher Bell feels the decision is premature and Thompson hopes to work collaboratively to address the concerns.

Nick's Friday PM Forecast 11/1
SUMMARY: Happy Friday, Pine Belt! November is here, and I hope you enjoyed HalloweenโI certainly did with some candy. Recently, we received half an inch of rain after a three-week dry spell, with lingering showers in areas like Pike County. However, expect mostly cloudy skies with just a few sprinkles, so enjoy Friday Night Lights without worry. The tropics are also changing as hurricane season wraps up, with low pressure expected but unlikely to impact South Mississippi. Remember to prepare for earlier sunsets at 5 PM, but we should stay warm despite the shorter days. Enjoy your weekend!

Sawmill Square in Laurel expected to welcome Hobby Lobby store
SUMMARY: Hobby Lobby is set to open at The Sawmill Square Mall in Laurel, taking over the former JC Penney location. This development is seen as a significant boost for both the mall and Laurel’s economy, as city leaders hope it revitalizes the area. The presence of Hobby Lobby is anticipated to attract more tenants and encourage shoppers to stay local, reducing the need for residents to travel to neighboring markets like Hattiesburg. With plans to enhance existing businesses, Mayor Johnny McGee is optimistic that the mall can regain its vitality. The store is expected to open in early 2025.
