MSU has put together a
2-day Crisis Response Conference on the MSU campus. After
coordination with IHL, we have determined that the dates of
July 10 - 11 (Tuesday and Wednesday) will work best. IHL has
confirmed that Patty Marshall, who heads up the Crisis
Response Team from the Attorney General's Office, will make a
presentation at this conference.
The plan is for the conference to begin at 10:00 a.m. on the
10th, and conclude around 4 or 5 p.m. on the 11th. To allow
for your convenience, we will make available guest rooms in
our newest on-campus residence hall, Building 3, at a cost of
$40.00 per night. Building 3 is next to Griffis Hall - our
Honors Residence Hall. The conference sessions will be held in
the Griffis Hall Forum - a large meeting room on the 4th
floor.
Michael Goolsby, our Student Affairs Risk Management
Coordinator, is serving as the conference coordinator. Please
contact him for additional information at 662-325-0411 or
