Mississippi State University is once again the beneficiary of generosity from a College of Veterinary Medicine alumnus and leader of a renowned animal nutraceutical company, Dr. Todd Henderson. A $50,000 gift to the MSU Police Department is funding the purchase, training and equipment for two fully equipped K-9 officers, Cosey and Quinn, who joined the unit alongside Bash and Padi.

Four Mississippi State administrators and faculty are 2025-26 Southeastern Conference Academic Leadership Development Program Fellows—a preeminent status recognizing emerging leaders in higher education.
