  • Taking the Safe Route
    Walking to and from school will be a lot safer for students of two Meridian Public School District schools.
    Harris Elementary and Carver Middle School will benefit from an $800,000 grant awarded to the city of Meridian by the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) through the Safe Routes to Schools grant. Funds will be used to improve the infrastructure around the two schools.
    Every year, about 25,000 child pedestrians are injured by motor vehicles. Reducing the risk of injury includes teaching children pedestrian and bicycle skills and offering safer and more appealing transportation alternatives. It also means reminding drivers to watch for others using the road.

  • UWA receives national diversity award
    LIVINGSTON, Ala. — The University of West Alabama recently received a 2009 National Role Models Award for Diversity at the 10th Minority Access National Conference in Washington, D.C., for its commitment to diversity, effective interaction and the exchange of ideas.
    “The university is pleased to receive this award, which gives us an even stronger desire to create a campus environment that embraces the full spectrum of everyone’s contributions,” said UWA President Richard D. Holland.
    UWA was honored for several initiatives enacted in 2008. First, the Julia Tutwiler College of Education received a three-year, $1,052,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Education to establish a program that increases the number of African Americans becoming master teachers capable of breaking the cycle of poor education provided in rural Black Belt schools.
