Bill to allow casino classes heads to Gov. Bryant
A bill headed to the governor would allow more of Mississippi’s public universities and community colleges to teach management, accounting or other courses specifically related to running casinos.
The courses could be taught only in counties where casinos are legal — some areas along the Mississippi River and the Gulf Coast and in places with casinos run by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians.
Republican Gov. Phil Bryant did not immediately say whether he’ll sign or veto the bill
“The governor will take it under consideration once he receives it,” Bryant spokesman Mick Bullock said Thursday.
