Dr. Paul formerly worked at the Gulf Park campus for a number of years before becoming interim president in July last year. He began his service as the 11th president of Southern Miss in November. The campus community spoke with Gulf Park’s student body president about their thoughts on Dr. Paul and his work ethic. They expressed that being able to connect directly with the university president makes them feel more connected to the university and a part of something greater.

SUMMARY: Phase 2 of the Bayou Lacroix Boat Launch improvement project has commenced in Bay St. Louis, following the successful completion of the initial boat ramp a few years ago. This phase includes extending the bulkhead and installing a new kayak launch, enhancing access for kayakers and anglers. The $150,000 project is funded by the Mississippi Outdoor Stewardship Trust, prompted by the need for amenities after Hurricane Katrina. The boat launch, frequently utilized by residents, will facilitate easier access to the Bay of St. Louis and the Jordan River, expected to be completed within four weeks, just in time for summer.
