Mid-South Community College School Description

Mid-South Community College is a two-year public institution serving eastern Arkansas, western Tennessee and northern Mississippi. Its founding marked the first local provision of higher education in a county which has lagged decades behind more prosperous areas in educational and economic development.

To address these deficits effectively, College personnel are committed to student learning, customer service, and an entrepreneurial approach to education. Consequently, the College is building a continuum of educational opportunities through alliances with both public schools and other institutions of higher education to increase college-preparedness and to provide local access to baccalaureate and graduate programs and professional training.

The College is committed to economic development in the Arkansas Delta through the provision of high quality, affordable, and convenient learning opportunities and services consistent with identified student, community, and regional needs.

Located on Broadway Street in West Memphis, the campus includes approximately 83 acres, with 42 acres on the South Campus and 35.37 acres on the North.

MSCC offers associate degree, technical certificate and certificate of proficiency programs; business and community education courses; and adult education.

Mid-South Community College has emerged from a vocational technical school designed to serve a limited number of students to a comprehensive community college. Credit enrollment has increased from approximately 100 students in the fall of 1993 to 1,584 in the fall of 2006. As of Spring 2007, the College employs more than 100 full-time faculty, staff and administrators.

The centerpiece of the campus is the $12 million Donald W. Reynolds Center for Educational Excellence which was funded primarily through an $8 million grant from the Reynolds Foundation. The 64,000 sq.-foot facility includes state-of-the-art library media and learning centers, an award-winning multimedia conference room, a food service area, a testing room, computer labs, a book store, additional meeting rooms, and office space.

The recently completed Workforce Technology Center adds more than 38,000 square feet of high-tech multimedia classrooms, computer upgrade and repair stations, automotive/manufacturing training area, and Diesel Maintenance Technology work spaces. MSCC has also broken ground on a computer technology building that is expected to be ready for use by January 2008.
