We recently reported that Mississippi’s community colleges are struggling to secure funding for buildings to house growing workforce development programs. It’s one of a number of challenges that face our state’s vital but oft-overlooked community college system. 

There’s more to report, and we want to hear from the people who know our community colleges best. If you’d like to help us report on your college, please fill out the survey below or reach out to our reporter Molly Minta at mminta@mississippitoday.org. We won’t publish or share anything you tell us without contacting you first.
