On Sunday, March 26, JSU Acting President Dr. Elayne H. Anthony led a delegation of JSU journalism students and faculty to tornado-ravaged Rolling Fork, Mississippi. The group assisted with field reporting and delivering emergency supplies in partnership with a local radio station damaged in the storm.
“As a journalist and educator of future journalists, I understand the integral role of the media to relay the seriousness of emergencies like natural disasters to the rest of the world. This one hit close to home as several of our students are from central Mississippi and have friends and family impacted by the tornadoes. We’ll continue to use our talents and resources to support this community during the recovery period,” said Anthony.
A special thank you to JSU student Jasmine Moering who captured photography, and journalism professor Don Spann who captured videography.
