Hinds Community College today issued the Ice Bucket Challenge in honor of former employee, Julie Faul, who worked in the Information Technology division, 1995-2008.

Vice Presidents Russell Shaw, from left, Jackie Granberry, Thomas Wasson, Colleen Hartfield and Theresa Hamilton were dunked with ice by their colleagues on the steps of Mayo Fieldhouse.

Hinds is issuing the challenge to colleagues at Copiah-Lincoln Community College, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College and Holmes Community College. They can choose to take the Ice Bucket Challenge and donate just $10. But, if they refuse the challenge, a $100 donation is on the line.

Faul, who is battling ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), joined Hinds employees and students for the event. Hinds President Dr. Clyde Muse served as Hinds CC Team Captain.

To make a donation in honor of Faul, see her ALS fund-raising page at
