Applications and nominations are now being accepted for the 10th-annual Spirit of State awards. With these awards, Mississippi State will recognize outstanding contributions made by our students toward improving student life.

These premier awards are open to all ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵstudents from all campuses and recognize excellence in campus involvement; service to the university community; actions that promote the Spirit of State; and overall impact on peers and the broader campus community.

All forms should be submitted online by March 2.

Faculty and staff help is needed in two very important ways:

* Identifying students who embody the Spirit of State and making them aware of the award program.

* Supporting outstanding students by nominating them, or writing a letter in support of their application if asked.

If you know a student who you feel represents the ideals of this award, please complete the nomination form at .

The awards will be presented at a special recognition program April 17.

Thank you for your help in identifying and supporting outstanding students who embody the Spirit of State.
