MTC is administered by the University Of Mississippi and largely funded by the Mississippi Legislature. The program has been compared to Teach For America , the New York City Teaching Fellows , or the Peace Corps and in some ways is a combination of all three. MTC was founded by Dr. Andy Mullins and Ms. Amy Gutman in 1989. The current Program Manager is Ben Guest, a former MTC participant, Peace Corps Volunteer, and Amherst College graduate. Ann Monroe is the lead instructor for the initial summer training. Participants currently hail from a wide variety of private and public colleges and universities throughout the United States including Harvard , Princeton , Duke , The University Of Chicago , UNC , Brown , Amherst, Williams , and Ole Miss itself. The eighteenth class of participants began the initial summer training in June of 2007. CURRENT PLACEMENTS
