Lawmakers are debating financial literacy requirements at Mississippi colleges and universities as the session winds down.
As the Legislature is considering a bill that would mandate all post-secondary institutions in the state provide some sort of financial literacy education, the Board of Trustees for the Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning has adopted a policy to that effect.
The new financial literacy policy was adopted as part of the discussion of academic affairs during Thursday’s meeting.

Robert St. John says his restaurant business and travel business aren’t two businesses. They’re the same business. It’s all hospitality.
There’s a moment — right before the northern lights appear — when the sky looks like it’s deciding whether, or not, to show you something. Then it does, and you understand why you traveled 4,000 miles. Twenty-five Americans stood beside me in the snow. Nobody spoke. The northern lights don’t require commentary.

“Election day means election day, not election week, not election month, not election season,” Mississippi Republican Party chairman and RNC General Counsel Mike Hurst contends.
The Republican National Committee and the Mississippi Republican Party will make their case before the U.S. Supreme Court Monday morning in the lawsuit filed to overturn a COVID-era state law that allowed for ballots to be received and counted up to five days after an election.
