Higher education officials will allow Mississippi State University to enter the "commercial paper" market to obtain $50 million for future construction projects.
The commercial paper market is short-term IOUs that companies sell to meet cash-flow needs. Issuing commercial paper is a way for companies to borrow money for short periods of time to finance their day-to-day operations. Most commercial paper is unsecured debt, but some of it is backed by assets such as mortgages and credit card debt.

MSU President Mark Keenum says the school will save millions of dollars in interest costs.
