STARKVILLE, Miss. (WCBI)-  Hundreds of young boys are learning how to be leaders at MSU this week.

Boys State is a national program that teaches kids how city, county, and state government works. They learn through hands on activities and training.

Organizers say it’s a way to expose the boys to politics, in a way that few young people get to experience.

Speakers this week include politicians, lawyers and businessmen.

The week long session started last night and wraps up Saturday.

This is the third year MSU has hosted Boys State.
