CLINTON, MS - Former University of Mississippi Chancellor Dr. Robert Khayat was the featured speaker at the annual Billy Joe Cross Wild Game Dinner last Thursday night to support Mississippi College athletics. The event raised $150,000 through the generous support of Choctaw supporters.

"The Wild Game Dinner is a tremendous blessing to our athletics department", said MC athletic director Mike Jones. "The support we receive every year from the MC family is overwhelming and gives us the opportunity to be successful in athletics."

The Wild Game Dinner has raised over $100,000 each of the last six years, but the money raised this year is an all-time high for the event. Dr. Khayat followed last year's Wild Game speaker Sylvester Croom.
