Anna Davis, an 11-year-old who just finished fifth grade at Overstreet Elementary in Starkville, presents her painting of McCool Hall to MSU College of Business Dean Sharon Oswald and Department of Finance and Economics Department Head Michael Highfield. The painting will hang in the Department of Finance and Economics' re-modeled offices in McCool Hall. Davis worked on the painting every Thursday afternoon for approximately three months. She has been interested in painting since she was two years old and hopes to study art at MSU, including classes in McCool Hall that will help her learn the business side of art.
