In the days to come, I will shake hands with my sixth president of Millsaps. The first held me in his arms, the second and third were the parents of my classmates, the fourth and fifth were my own age, and piloted the ship through some challenging waters. Each one left an impression on our school and got us, somehow, from there to here.
There will be some concern and restlessness among the community. Don't be afraid. Millsaps has endured worse than this. We will endure. We will prosper. Rob and Phoebe take a piece of us with them, but they leave behind thirteen years of service and a foundation we certainly can build on.
