Her leadership on the board of the Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning was marked by wisdom, integrity, and a deep commitment to Mississippi's educational system. She understood that education was the key to unlocking opportunities for generations to come. Jeanne was a fierce believer in service to her community, her State, and to the future of our children.
