Dr. Tommy King receives "Forever Young" award
Coast Young Professionals honored Dr. Tommy King with a “Forever Young” award July 18 during its annual Black Tie & Blue Jeans Gala in Biloxi.
As president of William Carey University since 2007, Dr. King has led the school during an enrollment increase of 100 percent, the addition and expansion of educational programs, and the recovery of the Hattiesburg campus after devastating damage caused by a 2017 tornado.
Coast Young Professionals: “The ‘Forever Young’ award is given to individuals who are excellent mentors and leaders for not only their employees, but for their communities as well. Congratulations to our award recipients. Without your mentorship, Coast Young Professionals would not be where we are today.”
