Jefferson Military College J.M.C. The Foundation is active in assisting the Mississippi Department of Archives and History with the preservation of Historic Jefferson College. In the 1990s, the organization played a vital role in the state's acquisition of property near the school, safeguarding the historic site's tranquil setting. Currently, the Foundation is raising funds through its Memorial Brick Walk Project to assist with the renovation of a 1915 dormitory building for use as a museum about the school's 20th century history. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the school. Annual dues are $50.00. (Please mail your check payable to the JMC Foundation to: Lynwood Easterling, Treasurer, JMC Foundation, P.O. Box 11, Washington, MS 39190-0011.) In addition to helping support the Foundation's work, members receive a quarterly newsletter with stories by former students and faculty, updates on Foundation projects, reunion plans, and news about programs and events at Historic Jefferson College. --Mike Keller, President (Class of 1950-1953) |
