State Leader: William F. Winter

In the March issue of Alternatives, former Mississippi Governor William F. Winter, a keynote speaker at the W.K.Kellogg Foundation’s January meeting in Mississippi, was incorrectly identified. We regret the mistake.

The hallmarks of Gov. Winter’s administration from 1980-84 were education reform, equal opportunity and better race relations. He was appointed by President Clinton to the Advisory Board for the President’s Initiative on Race in 1997-98. Gov. Winter’s record of public service is longstanding; prior to serving as governor, he was a Mississippi state representative, state treasurer and lieutenant governor.
