community. “It’s the people
who make a difference,” he said. “Pharmacy students are not the typical 18- or 19-year-old college students, and many of them have families who will relocate to the area.”
He has been looking at hospitals
and other relevant places that can
benefit from and partner with
the pharmacy school. “Coming to WCU gives me the opportunity to create a health care profession that can impact the entire Coast,” he said. “Because everyone goes to a pharmacy, everyone needs a pharmacist.”
WCU President Tommy King said, “William Carey University has made great strides in filling unmet needs in the healthcare field.”
A campaign is underway to raise the $4 million start-up costs of the proposed school. It is estimated
an additional $12 to $15 million will be needed in construction funds to build and equip the facility. More than $3.4 million has been raised, including a $1 million gift from Joe F. Sanderson, Jr. and his wife Kathy, as well as major gifts from Joe Canizaro, Trehern Charitable Foundation, Mississippi Power Company, Leo Seal Foundation, John “Shorty” Sneed, Chevron, Coast Electric Power Association and Merit Health Biloxi.
“Today’s announcement would not be possible without the support provided by these donors and the Coast community,” King said. “Although additional start-
up funds need to be raised, there are professors from around the country showing interest in coming to the school. We are stepping out on faith to make this move now. We trust the people of the Coast and others to support our efforts.”
