ZACK PLAIR, Managing Editor BETH PROFFITT Advertising Director The MICHAEL FLOYD Circulation/Production Manager Opinion Dispatch MARY ANN HARDY Controller Our View Cartoonist view The state of the state As is commonly done Gov. Phil Bryant used Tuesday’s state of the state address to emphasize the positives while making only opaque references to the issues that continue to trouble or present and cloud our future. That is the nature of state of the state addresses, which generally serve as pep rallies before legisla- tors dive into their legislative sessions. Tuesday’s speech, Bryant touted the state’s low unemployment rate and the abundance of jobs in making his case that Mississippi is “good” on the way to becoming “great.” Whether you agree with the governor’s assess- ment or not, even the unemployment rate (at 4.8 percent, the lowest rate in the state in four decades) and the availability of jobs (40,000 job listings on the state’s Mississippi Works website), do not accu- rately reflect the big picture. In truth, we are losing — and have been losing — our greatest asset. Just a week ago, the state’s Institutions of Higher Learning, released the results of a 2016 study that provides important context to the jobs picture in Mississippi. According to a study commissioned by the IHL, 40 percent of graduates from Mississippi’s eight public universities leave the state within five years of graduation. That exodus climbs even higher among gradu- ates with STEM (science, technology, engineer- ing and math) degrees. According to the report, 56 percent of those who earned STEM degrees in 2013 were working in other states a year after Mississippi Voices graduating. This is a devastating statistic.
