Copiah Lincoln Community College has kicked off its fall 2024 semester with classes, football, activities and much more. 

Welcome Week on the Wesson Campus was held in mid-August, with activities the included outdoor games, a 360° photo booth, a concert by The Lincoln Outfit, a Club Fair and movie night in The Wolf Den, a luau at the Baptist Student Union (BSU), and Frosty Flamingo free treats on behalf of Co-Lin Alumni. 

Meet the Wolves, held at Stone Stadium, was a free event and open to the public. Co-Lin fans came out to support student-athletes. 

Campus elections were held late last month. Sixty new Trailblazers, student recruiters who serve as the “faces” of Co-Lin, were selected after applications and interviews.

Faculty and staff wore matching shirts on the first day of classes for the new college-wide Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP): Press P.A.W.S, which stands for Positively Advocating for Wolf Pack Success. 

Press P.A.W.S aims to increase student success by providing students with enhanced mental health support and services.
