Mississippi Delta Community College (MDCC) is a small, public, open-access associate degree college with an enrollment of mixed transfer/career-technical and mixed traditional/nontraditional students. It was founded a century ago as Sunflower Junior College, in connection with Sunflower County’s agricultural high school. The first freshman class enrolled in September of 1926, and by April 1928, the Accrediting Commission of the Senior Colleges of Mississippi granted it full accreditation as a two-year junior college. In December 1930, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools admitted it to full membership. Today it also holds membership in the American Association of Community Colleges. Over the years, MDCC changed its official name twice to better reflect its expanding service area and programs, and it considers the other community colleges of Mississippi as its peers. It is part of a state system but governed by a board of trustees from its service area, and it has been led by twelve superintendents/presidents. 

MDCC serves a seven-county district in the Congressionally designated Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area. The Delta’s vast alluvial floodplain accounts for the region’s initial agricultural development, its continuing lack of urbanization, and its mix of peoples. While not a historically Black college or university, MDCC nonetheless has a large percentage of students from historically underserved groups. At least 50% of its degree-seeking students receive assistance under the federal Pell Grant program, and not less than 40% of total undergraduates identify racially as Black or African American. Approximately two-thirds of students are women, and over three-fourths of students commute to school. The average ACT of entering students is routinely 10% or more below the state average.

This mission of the College states, “Mississippi Delta Community College (MDCC) provides quality education through academic, career-technical, health science, adult education, and workforce training programs. MDCC enhances its communities through innovative personal and professional growth opportunities.” MDCC's mission and programs reflect not only its agricultural roots but also its contemporary setting as it strives to meet the needs of its student body and service area.

Mississippi state employees' medical insurance and retirement, professional development opportunities, tuition scholarship at MDCC and at partner universities, and some extended holidays (e.g., Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Break).
