JACKSON — Jackson State University has unveiled a new mural inside its post office created by JSU alumnus and award-winning contemporary artist Christopher Windfield. The mural, located in Jacob L. Reddix Hall, illustrates the university’s rich history and features key civil rights figures.
The project was led by JSU’s Auxiliary Enterprises Executive Director Kamesha Hill, Assistant Director Victor Mills and JSU Post Office Manager Stephanie Luckett.
“Our goal in Auxiliary Enterprises is to always tell our own story and to partner with alumni or vendors who love Jackson State University as much as we do,” Hill said. “We wanted to give students a visual of excellence and create a warm, inviting space. I am grateful that Victor and Stephanie executed the project so well.”
“This mural should serve as a daily reminder of the strength, resilience and legacy of Jackson State University,” Mills said. “By honoring our alumni and civil rights heroes, we show students, faculty, staff and the community that they, too, can make a difference. It’s a beautiful addition to our campus and a powerful reflection of our commitment to service through Auxiliary Enterprises.”
