Lowndes Co. Sheriff’s Office graduates 13 new correctional officers
SUMMARY: The Lowndes County Sheriff's Office is training 13 new correctional officers to handle the increasing difficulty of dealing with inmates who have no respect for law enforcement or authority. The officers will be working in Lowndes, Clay, Noxubee, and Oktibbeha Counties. Sheriff Eddie Hawkins emphasized the importance of having the right kind of person for this tough job, as correctional officers must enforce rules on individuals who do not like to follow them. Deputy Antavieon Hicks expressed a desire to be a mentor to those in jail, recognizing that inmates are also people who make mistakes.

SUMMARY: Mississippi State's spring semester has ended, with seniors graduating and many students moving home for the summer. This seasonal migration causes a dip in local businesses' foot traffic. Brikley Spencer from Maroon and Co. noted that they offer promotions to attract customers. Bart Wood of Little Dooey mentioned that while there's a slowdown, recent developments like Cornerstone Park tournaments and MSU camps keep Starkville active. Both businesses largely employ college students, but the summer schedule balances staffing needs. Despite past challenges, Wood says conditions have improved, and they adapt annually, considering even shortening hours during slower periods.
