What Can You Tell Me About Delta State

I wouldn’t recommend the MS delta if you have kids.

Cleveland Mississippi, just North of Leland Mississippi which is the claimed birthplace of Kermit the Frog and South of Clarksdale Mississippi which is home of the Devil's Crossroads.

I lived for a little while within 2 hrs of Cleveland but I'm much more familiar with Greenville. Greenville is a rapidly declining MS river town that saddens me each time I go by.

As far as Cleveland goes they did open up a Grammy Musuem recently that I've heard good things about. I've been to Delta State a few times but for nothing specific and it seems like a nice small campus.

I wish I could give you a good dining place but I'm 90% sure I just stopped at a KFC in Cleveland

I probably wasn't much of a help but best of luck

Did you get the job? Saw this in the news and remembered this thread.

The list of suspects includes known street gang members with nicknames like "Dookie Pooh," "Fruit Loop" and "Pooh Bear," but federal officials said they are much more violent than their names sound. An indictment against nine suspects states that they were "members and associates of a national street gang, the Vice Lords, an armed drug trafficking organization engaged in drug trafficking and firearms trafficking."

Two of the other suspects were identified in court documents as members of the Gangster Disciples street gang.

The arrests come following an extensive investigation into violent street gang activity following an increase in violent crime in the Mississippi Delta.
