"In 1941 the Itawamba Agricultural High School board of trustees voted to expand the school's curriculum to include college-level courses. In 1948 the Itawamba Junior College opened its doors with an enrollment of 114 students from Itawamba, Lee, and Monroe Counties. In addition to those, 170 veterans were enrolled in the school's carpentry, auto mechanics, masonry, and business training courses. The college's first president was Phillip A. Sheffield."
