Last update: 7 hours ago

MLB Draft Overhaul: Owners are pushing a plan that would block many high school players from signing and tighten eligibility, including a higher minimum age—raising big questions for teen athletes and families. Higher Ed Closures: Students and colleges are bracing as more schools face shutdowns and debt pressure, with some turning to virtual preservation to keep legacies alive. Mississippi 250 Celebration: Jackson and statewide events marked America’s 250th with symphony performances, fireworks, and cultural programming outside the Two Mississippi Museums, including Indigenous history spotlights. Public Safety & Health: Mississippi health officials are warning about rising risks tied to summer water exposure, as flesh-eating bacteria concerns and broader public health cuts keep communities on edge. Education & Second Chances: Mississippi Valley State University became the first HBCU in the state to offer a four-year college program for incarcerated people, expanding access through a new partnership program. Local Culture: Jones College in Ellisville is hosting a major July 4 concert headlined by Micky Dolenz as part of the Red White and Blue Tour.
