Cheerleaders are selected to serve one year by a panel of judges from outside the institution. Once a student has enrolled on the Fulton or Tupelo campus, that student will be eligible for only two years as a cheerleader. Students who drop below 12 semester hours credit or who do not maintain a 2.00 grade point average are immediately ineligible for further participation. Cheerleaders are responsible to the cheerleader sponsor. The Forensics team competes with two and four year schools in the areas of public speaking and other platform events.
Selection is by audition and scholarships are awarded.
Programs emphasizing comprehensive personal wellness are provided for both men and women. Fitness development through exercise is encouraged. Dances, Entertainment and Speakers Periodically during the year dances and special days are scheduled for the enjoyment of the students. Speakers and entertainment jointly sponsored by clubs and the Office of Student Activities are also scheduled. The students publish a newspaper, the Chieftain.
