MEET THE MINDS BEHIND THE MAGIC +

Our History

In 2008, three bold students had a vision—to create an agency where students could gain real-world experience in advertising and PR. That idea became Morris+Mitchell, officially launching in 2010.

Since then, 300+ students have honed their skills here, working on real client projects and preparing for careers in marketing, advertising, and public relations.

What’s in a Name?

Our name honors two influential figures at ACU:

Dr. Don H. Morris – ACU’s seventh president and namesake of the building where our agency operates.
Elise Mitchell – A JMC alumna and former CEO of Mitchell, an award-winning PR firm. Her mentorship and generosity have fueled our agency’s growth.
