Is there a Kwanza(sp) celebration at the University? Are most all the frats integrated? Is there a Black studies dept? Is there a White studies dept? I ask these questions because I think there should be one "University Of Mississippi" that is there for the students who want to attend. All these agendas pushed by special interests are counterproductive to the image of the university as a whole and project visions of divisions that only exist in the minds of people with too much time on their hands.
I am third generation Ole Miss and both my sons also graduated there(also in the M club). All this crap just makes me sick. One poster above stated that most alums don`t give as much as the average student pays in tuition....well I certainly have given more than that many times over simply because I believed the university was getting things done the way they should be done. No more! Until the university can again get back to educating the young people of our state, they can do without my help.
I hope you change your mind brother.
Not everyone will agree with the changes, but OLE MISS needs your support, more now than ever. We're doing great things down here, and it would be a shame if you weren't with us.
I respect your view sir, I'm just trying to keep you on board.
