Boyd Campbell
College Center
The Boyd Campbell College Center was formally opened in 1957. This
center for dining and student activities was dubbed the Millsaps Student Union until 1963,
when the Board of Trustees chose to pay tribute to A. Boyd Campbell, an outstanding
Millsaps alumnus, by re-naming the building as the A. Boyd Campbell Student Center. During
renovations and additions, the structure came to be known as the Boyd Campbell College
Center.
 The Campbell College Center, which
has been completely renovated and updated as late as 2000, is
the center of Millsaps life. Positioned on one end of the Millsaps
Bowl, this building houses the offices of Student Life and the
Millsaps Career Center.
The College Center also contains offices and meeting rooms for numerous
student organizations, including the Student Body Association,
the Purple and White (Millsaps' campus newspaper), and
the Bobashela (Millsaps' yearbook). In addition, the building
is the location of several student services such as the Millsaps
post office, counseling
services and the Wesson
Health Center.
The Millsaps dining room, where students on the Millsaps
meal plan can choose from a wide variety of foods, is housed in
the College Center. Millsaps
Dining Services also runs the Kava House, a campus
coffee shop. The Kava House serves coffees, smoothies,
snacks and meals to go. Students also gather there to listen to live
music, stage poetry readings and just hang out.
