What is Mississippi Pell Runner?
1.
An individual who attends the University of Phoenix online for about 3 weeks, whereupon he/she will receive a Pell disbursement and run. The highest perncentage of Mississippi Pell Runners (MPRs) are from Zig Ziglar's hometown of Yazoo City, Mississippi. One of the distinguishing characteristics of a Mississippi Pell Runner, that sets them apart from ordinary Pell runners, is that they are known to call their finance counselor up to 30 times a day and complain about not receiving "they" pell "repursemen". They may also have about to 19 students associated with the same phone number. MPR's are also known to have "untraditional" names such as Orangejello and Preekoshiss.
Me: Hey J, you know whats funny? Shaqueena Jackson and Bonquesha Taylor both called about 17 times yesterday asking about "they Pell rebursement" from the same phone number. They claim not to know each other. Straight Mississippi Pell Runner.
J: What's funny about that? Charizma Washington called me about 30 times before lunch pissed off and asking to speak to my manager or the dean of the school because she hasn't received her excess funds check of $2.53. I told her she has a Pell check on the way for about $2500 hoping that would get her to shut up. She said "ah fo' real. Soon as I git dat I'm runnin to the rim shop and gettin dem 22's I've been wanting." Straight MPR!
