Jackson State University received a $30,000 donation to establish a scholarship in honor of the late Senator Douglas Anderson. The announcement was made during the Senator Douglas Anderson Memorial Highway dedication ceremony by former Hinds County Administrator Anthony Brister as he announced the donation to JSU Acting President Elayne Hayes-Anthony, Ph.D.
“We appreciate this extremely gracious and thoughtful gesture. We want to thank you on behalf of ‘Thee I Love’ Jackson State and the students who will gain so much from this scholarship,” said Hayes-Anthony. “Our students need and want the help and this is something Doug Anderson would really truly enjoy.”
Several members of Anderson’s family, including his wife Josephine Anderson and daughter Jackie Anderson Woods, were present for the unveiling of the Senator Douglas Anderson Memorial Highway sign to be seen on Interstate 220 North. The stretch of interstate beginning at the Highway 49 intersection in Jackson, Mississippi, and extending a mile North will now pay honor to the late senator.
