Dear faculty and staff,

Thank you! Two simple words, but filled with so much meaning, especially today on National Employee Appreciation Day 2021. We were motivated to share this note of gratitude with our faculty and staff because you inspire us. On a daily basis, we have a front-row seat to how our university is fueled by your commitment to serving our students, our state and our future.

We commend you for the dedication, talent and hard work you bring to your roles year-round. It is impressive, but not surprising, because at the University of Mississippi, our people are the foundation of our caring culture and our successes. Because of you:

We infuse excellence into all our endeavors.
We prepare people on their path to their true potential.
We create indelible experiences and enduring connections.

We are the Red & Blue because of you!

Your incredible commitment and selfless service to the university reflects the greater mission we all believe in: to build a better world through higher education. Your efforts are the backbone of how we will continue to do this and cement our legacy of excellence. Thank you — we are all truly grateful for your many contributions and extraordinary service.

Sincerely,
