The Spring Commencement 2016 was truly one for the history book within the Department of Urban and Regional Planning.  Seven graduates walked across the stage on Friday, April 22, 2016 at the Lee Williams Athletic and Assembly Center on the main campus of Jackson State University.  Never before has the department since its inception seen four PhDs graduate all at the same time within the same semester!  Congratulations to both our M.A. and Ph.D. scholars as they pursue their career aspirations!
