Excerpt from Major Notes, Vol. 43: Winter Edition, 1959
Continuing their growing response to the opportunity for partnership in the great enterprise of Christian higher education, Millsaps alumni and members of the Methodist Church in Mississippi gave more to the College than they had ever given in a single year.
The year 1958 saw the opening of two new dormitories, one for men and one for women, to meet. The needs of a growing student body. This was the climax of a building program begun in 1954 to prepare the College for the demands of the immediate future.
