STARKVILLE and JACKSON, MS (WCBI)-A portion of Highway 25 could soon be dedicated in honor of former Mississippi State president, Donald Zacharias.

The Mississippi house passed a bill Tuesday that would designate the portion of highway 25 that intersects at the Oktibbeha County-Winston County line as “Dr. Donald W. Zacharias Memorial Highway.”
Zacharias was president of MSU from 1985 through 97. He passed away last March of complications from multiple sclerosis at age 77. The bill now goes to the State senate.
