In November, Mississippi State and its College of Education celebrated the dedication of the Jim and Thomas Duff Center. One of MSU’s largest academic buildings, it is now home to the Department of Kinesiology, as well as key programs of the university’s Mississippi Institute on Disabilities, including the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Clinic and ACCESS Program and Specialized College Services.
As a hub for assisting those with disabilities—with state-of-the-art laboratories, treatment rooms and offices—the Duff Center is enhancing Mississippi State’s ability to serve families in need. In his remarks during the ribbon cutting, MSU President Mark E. Keenum explained how this investment in essential services will grow the university’s reach from three to four times its original capacity.
