Susan and Alex talk with University of Southern Mississippi President, Dr. Joe Paul, about how his faith informs how he leads and relates to others, and how his mantra, "Leave it better than you found it," is a good summary of what he believes we're all called to do. You'll enjoy this lively conversation with the USM's 11th President!

DR. JOSEPH S. PAUL began his service as the 11th President of The University of Southern Mississippi on November 1, 2022, after having served in the interim role since July 16th.

A well-known Southern Miss alumnus who previously dedicated 40 years of service to his alma mater as a student affairs administrator, Dr. Paul’s priorities include growing enrollment at all locations, especially on the Coast; further supporting excellent teaching and research; creating a student life experience that is second to none; reaching and exceeding the capital campaign goal; engaging the alumni base as never before; and supporting intercollegiate athletics' ongoing transition to the Sun Belt Conference.
