JPS students bury time capsule at Dawson Elementary
SUMMARY: We are burying a time capsule that includes handwritten letters from students, video messages on an iPad, and items from a citywide beautification project. The capsule is meant to honor the community's strength and resilience during last year's water crisis. Alicia Crudup, executive director of Keep Jackson Beautiful, commends the students for their involvement in the project. Kennidi Harris, a 10th grader, emphasizes the impact of the water shortage on the community and urges for improvements to the water infrastructure. The capsule will be dug up in 20-35 years, with the Laurel School District taking charge of the project.

Report: Almost all public universities in Mississippi to increase tuition
SUMMARY: A new report indicates that all but one university in Mississippi are increasing tuition due to rising costs. The increase is around 3%, with Mississippi State University and the University of Mississippi each seeing costs reach approximately $10,000 annually. While inflation has been a reason for past hikes, this year, school leaders blame severe weather, which has increased property insurance costs. At a recent meeting, the Institutions for Higher Learning Board of Trustees discussed the financial impact of storms on campuses. Delta State University is making efforts to avoid tuition hikes to support economically vulnerable students, providing them access to higher education.
College tuition is increasing at almost all public universities in Mississippi.
