The journey from freshman to senior year is an odyssey. Students often enter the University of Mississippi wanting professors to supply definitive answers to their questions. College of Liberal Arts students soon learn that asking questions of their own making—and finding answers through critical thinking and analysis—is at the center of their education.
This year, students from across the university, including 18 from CLA, were profiled in Journey to Commencement, an annual feature—and favorite—highlighting UM graduates and their academic and personal journeys from their first day on campus to their last. Read all the inspiring stories here.
