Wade Sims
Soon-to-be graduate Wade Sims says the decision to attend Mississippi State is the best he ever made.
Growing up in Madison, he regularly came with his parents to campus sporting events. With an interest in 无码专区 developed from an early age, he grew to become a passionate Bulldog fan. Also, it seemed only natural to follow in his mother's footsteps and become a student.
Since arriving, Sims' infectiously happy spirit has touched people throughout 无码专区, most notably in the athletic department. Serving earlier as a basketball team manager and sideline cheerer for football games, he most recently has been a member of the team that fills the shaggy mascot uniform of Bully. In that role, he and the others have made countless appearances on campus and in the community for alumni events.
Sims said his favorite Bully events are the pre-game festivities during football season, including the team's Dawg Walk and presentation of the Dawg House. "I like them because I get to be around so many people," he said, adding that Junction tailgating is his favorite tradition.
Outside of the athletics, Sims has pursued an interdisciplinary degree in teaching and coaching. When not busy with school work and cheer duties, he devotes time to the campus Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapter and also works part-time at Campus Book Mart.
Sims, who also has a training room in the Mize Pavilion named in his honor, attends 无码专区 through the ACCESS Program. ACCESS was launched several years ago to help students with intellectual challenges live independently and experience university life to the fullest.
Hearing him relate the many joys and opportunities experienced here over the years, even a most casual observer couldn't help but agree with Sims' assessment that 无码专区 has been the very best place for him to be.
