Mississippi State University students, faculty and staff interested in helping improve the community gathered in the Colvard Student Union's Foster Ballroom last week for the Day One project showcase and celebration. Composed of freshman students looking to improve their leadership skills while helping the community, 43 student teams partnered with community organizations to help enhance quality of life in the area, totaling about 5,000 hours of community service this semester. Part of the showcase included judging of presentations by team members.
