Angel Rohnke tabbed as new director of Mississippi Museum of Natural Science – SuperTalk Mississippi
A new leader has been dubbed to oversee operations at the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science.
The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) announced on Friday that Deputy Administrator Angel Rohnke will serve as the museum’s director, filling the role left vacant by longtime director Charles Knight.
According to MDWFP officials, Rohnke brings extensive expertise in conservation, education, tourism, and leadership to the role, having contributed to the growth of the museum and LeFleur’s Bluff State Park for 19 years as a museum educator, education coordinator, assistant director, and deputy administrator. Rohnke holds a master’s degree in environmental interpretation, a B.S. in environmental forest biology, and an A.A.S. in natural resources conservation.
The new director has been a dynamic force at MDWFP, overseeing the creation of the multi-million-dollar LeFleur’s Bluff Playground, Spotter’s Adventure Trail, The Den, and a new entrance, which have collectively attracted over 350,000 visitors since December 2021.
“We are proud of Angel’s work and leadership at MDWFP. With her guidance, the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science is set for a promising future, continuing its legacy of excellence in education, conservation, and community engagement,” MDWFP Executive Director Lynn Posey said.
Rohnke’s contributions to conservation, education, and tourism have been recognized by her peers with numerous awards including:
- Mississippi Science Teachers Association Outstanding Informal Educator of the Year
- Mississippi Wildlife Federation Conservation Educator of the Year
- Finger Lakes Community College Outstanding Conservation Alumni Achievement Award
- Rudolph J.H. Schafer Outstanding Coordinator Award from the Council for Environmental Education
- Hometown Hero award from Visit Jackson
“I am deeply honored to follow in the footsteps of the directors who have shaped this incredible institution,” Rohnke said. “Our talented staff is the heart of this museum, and together, we will continue to foster a love of the outdoors in our community. I look forward to leading us through a significant renovation project later this summer and a comprehensive branding update that reflects our mission and values.”

There is a nickname associated with the storied Texas Longhorns baseball program, on signage around UFCU Disch-Falk, seemingly at every corner, that reads, “The University of Texas at Omaha.”
It’s the truth, the Longhorns have appeared in the most College World Series in college baseball history. But it’s a daunting expectation that comes with living up to the mantra of ending the season as one of the final eight teams in Omaha.
For the past two conference series between Vanderbilt and in its current matchup with No. 10 Mississippi State, the Longhorns’ bats haven’t exhibited the same fury as they did earlier in conference play.
The Longhorns have only scored 11 runs in their past 36 innings at the plate.
This Mississippi State Series is Texas’ Final Test
Around this time last season, the wheels were falling off the wagon for the Longhorns, getting swept by Arkansas and losing its final home series to Florida before the SEC Tournament and ultimately losing in the Austin Regional to UTSA.
While last season’s woes were a combination of starting pitching struggles due to Jared Spencer being knocked down with a season-ending arm injury and the bats struggling to produce, the latter is starting to peek its ugly head into this May.
Saturday’s game against the Bulldogs at the plate was reminiscent of last season. The Longhorns’ situational hitting was struggling mightily, and the top producers, like Carson Tinney or Anthony Pack Jr., never got the right pitch to dive in crucial runs.
By the end of the afternoon, Texas batters left a combined 17 runners on base, with four loaded bases situations in the final four innings, allowing Mississippi State to force a rubber match on Sunday.
Despite losing with that many runners left on base, head coach Jim Schlossnagle wasn’t too worried about heading into Sunday’s game.
“I think they’re in a good spot,” Schlossnagle said. “The results can cover up some really good things.”
The Bulldogs are an Omaha quality team under Brian O’Connor, and Schlossnagle remarked on that fact pre-series media availability on Thursday and it will be the last true test on the schedule before Hoover and the Regional.
Granted, the Longhorns will face one more quality team in UTSA for their final midweek game in three days, but in a regional atmosphere, playing games for an entire weekend, the Bulldogs are it.
Texas closes out the season with an up-and-down Tennessee team and the worst squad in the conference, Missouri, providing opportunities for the Longhorns to tune up before postseason play commences.
Although there is not much worry inside the Texas locker room for the rubber match against Mississippi State, as the Longhorns have yet to drop just one Sunday game this season.
“We’re pretty confident,” Temo Beccera said after the Saturday loss. “This is the SEC, every series will be interesting and fun to play in, so we’ll get back at it tomorrow.”
