Day Two on the Job

Today, we had the opportunity to meet with Representative John Hines, Sr. of the Mississippi House of Representatives.  Representative Hines discussed his background and work in Mississippi.  

We then split up into our respective groups to continue our research and assignments.  One group went to MCJ’s new office at the Jackson Medical Mall and the other group continued their work at MCJ’s headquarters in Jackson.  Development of the Jackson Medical Mall was part of an inner city revitalization project that converted an ailing retail center into a modern medical complex, providing medical care and human services to those who are economically disadvantaged.  Here is a photo of us in MCJ's newest office at the Jackson Medical Mall. 

For lunch, we had incredible BBQ at Chimneyville.  We ended our day dining at Babalu, where we had delicious table side guacamole and fresh tacos.
