Mississippi College Career Development engages our students as they grow in their confidence, ensuring they shine professionally.
A part of putting their best foot forward does include dressing professionally which is often a difficult box to check for many students. We are excited to introduce our Choctaw Career Closet, located in the basement of Nelson Hall across from the main Career Studio and office space. This closet is a space for professional clothing available for rent at no cost for current MC students. Our inventory includes blazers, blouses, pants, suits, button downs, and more varying in size and style to meet the needs of a diverse group of students. Whether the student has a presentation, an interview, or networking event, our closet aims to cover all career-focused occasions and will be available to visit by appointment Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:00pm.
Your support can help us build up our inventory with high-quality professional attire, maintain these items in top condition, and ensure that our students can access this resource easily and without cost. Here's how you can contribute:
Clothing Donations
We are seeking donations of gently used professional clothing, including suits, blazers, dresses, skirts, and dress shirts. All sizes, both male and female. Drop off box in the basement of Nelson Hall.
Monetary Donations
We will utilize any general monetary donation towards purchasing additional sizes and items to fill gaps in our collection. These donations will also assist with the operational costs of maintaining the Choctaw Career Closet. To keep clothing in good condition, we will also put donations towards cleaning services. Your contribution will ensure the clothes are being used on rotation and assisting multiple students with their professional growth.
Thank you for your consideration towards donating to MC’s first Choctaw Career Closet. Your generosity is greatly appreciated! If you have any questions or concerns please contact career-development@mc.edu or 601.925.3901.
