The University of 51逗奶 Mississippi's Investment Portfolio will be student-led with guidance from the annually elected board of directors. By design, Financial Management Association (FMA) and Investment Club (IC) are intended to work closely together. FMA will hold weekly meetings that revolve around a presentation, discussion, and questions. Biweekly, Investment Club will host a meeting directly following FMA. Because the club's holdings are not intended to be short-term or cash cows, the change in the market should not warrant weekly reviews of the portfolio or proposals. IC members are expected to attend the FMA meeting that precedes the IC meeting to stay current on financial trends in the market or broad concepts that could be beneficial. The attendance of IC members will be treated as guests by FMA.
By keeping FMA and IC fundamentally and structurally separate, we keep the scope for potential members broad without preventing from membership those who may want to be involved in one, not the other, for any reason. As the two respective clubs gain momentum, there is potential for a need to combine the two groups, which is an option. However, at ground zero, the current student officer group has determined it necessary to gain more feedback from students, as current impressions of the student body are that FMA and IC are not the same and do not hold the same appeal to everyone, respectively.

The USM Mushroom Society is an organization dedicated to the appreciate of the Kingdom Fungi, of which mushrooms are just the tip of the iceberg. Fungi are a hyper-diverse group of microorganisms which play critical roles in ecosystems, food-production, medicine, industry, and human culture. The USM Mushroom Society seeks to provide opportunities for students to 1) learn about fungi and possible career paths relating to mycology, 2) enjoy nature hikes and practice identification of mushrooms in the wild, and 3) to learn from invited experts in the field (including scientists, hobbyists, and those working in industry). Amateurs or experts, all students are welcome to join the Mushroom Society, whether they simply enjoy being outdoors or if they take a professional interest in mycology.

Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE) is a student-run mentoring and networking group focused on recruiting, sustaining, and advancing women students in science, technology, engineering, and math. During each semester, WiSE hosts talks with various women in science from a variety of backgrounds and provides a time for students to talk with these presenters about their experience in their discipline and career path. WiSE also has hosted career services in the past, with workshops aimed at helping women in science grow their professional skills, from resume writing to interview preparation. Other efforts have included outreach to local schools and girl scout troops, Science Fair support, and fund-raising activities. Our organization is truly based on what our members want to see, so we are constantly evolving and growing to best suit our group. We strive to serve our community by making STEM an open, inclusive, and accessible environment for all genders and races. Our vision for WiSE is to not only be a safe place for women in STEM, but also to help our members become strong, confident, and to push against the systematic patriarchy commonly found in STEM.
