During his four seasons as a Rebel, Carter earned first-team all-SEC honors in 1999 and picked up a gold medal for the United States at the 1998 Goodwill Games.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn 2008, Carter left basketball and moved back to Mississippi to join Barnes-Pettey Financial Advisors in Clarksdale. There, he drew on his UM education to develop and execute financial plans for individuals.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;We&#8217;re extremely encouraged to have someone of Keith&#8217;s caliber working to make sure the School of Business Administration continues to offer outstanding academic programs, competitive scholarship packages and support for our faculty,&#8221; said Ken Cyree, business school dean.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDeborah Vaughn, assistant vice chancellor for university relations and executive director of university development, agreed: &#8220;Keith brings enormous talent to our development team, and we know he will be incredibly successful in his new role.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn that new role, Carter will raise funds to ensure business administration students and faculty have the resources they need to excel.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;There&#8217;s a definite need within the business school, and a lot of opportunity to grow support for the school,&#8221; Carter said. &#8220;Dean Cyree is doing a great job of leading the charge, and I&#8217;m thrilled to assist him.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\nCarter is joined in Oxford by his wife, Jill, who holds bachelor&#8217;s and master&#8217;s degrees in accountancy from UM, and their two children, Drew, 4, and Callie, 2.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFor more information about the School of Business Administration, go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.olemissbusiness.com\" target=\"?blank\">http:\/\/www.olemissbusiness.com<\/a> .<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 Former Rebel basketball standout Keith Carter has joined the University of Mississippi as associate director of development for the School of Business Administration. &#8220;I always knew I wanted to come back to live in Oxford, and I&#8217;m excited to have the opportunity to work for the School of Business,&#8221;
