Dear Mass Comm. & Journalism Alumni and Friends,
I would like to personally invite you to a reception to mark the retirement of Dr. Robert Gene Wiggins that will be held Wednesday, May 7, from 3 to 5 p.m. in Room 218 of the Thad Cochran Center on the Southern Miss campus.
As you already know, Dr. Wiggins has had an extraordinary career here at Southern Miss. His impact on journalism and communication education is unparalleled. His extraordinary work as a teacher, scholar and administrator rivals the best educators in the country.
As you also may know, we established an endowment in Dr. Wiggins’ name, which supports scholarships and fellowships for deserving students in the school. I hope you’ll consider an additional donation to the endowment at this time, in recognition of Dr. Wiggins’ retirement. Checks can be made payable to the USM Foundation with “Wiggins Endowment” noted in the memo blank. These tax-deductible donations can be mailed to:
School of Mass Communication & Journalism
118 College Drive #5121
Hattiesburg , MS 39406
Or you’re welcome to bring your donation with you if you can join us for the celebration of Dr. Wiggins’ career on May 7.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I can be reached at 601-266-6283 or christopher.campbell@usm.edu. As always, thanks for your continued support of the School of Mass Communication and Journalism.
Sincerely,

Chris Campbell, Director
School of Mass Comm & Journalism (and one of the thousands of Southern Miss alumni whose lives were shaped by Dr. Wiggins)
