I am replying to a sweet little lady who posted her true thoughts about Ole Miss in relation to how it is today vs how it was in 1960's when she was here. I am ashamed of everyone who blasted this sweet little lady on her point of view. Times have changed since 1960 and to her I am sure it seems very over whelming the way things are being ran. In 1960's there were no interracial couples at events, the girls were not shacking up, the amount of parting was kept to a minimum respectfully. Ole Miss was known as the "money school" of the state. It was where the states most wealthy sent their children. Ole Miss became very greedy in its judgmental ways. They created a plan to accept OOS that were not grade eligible any where else to increase the number of students and revenue. I will agree as a student in the early 80"s we did not have as many OOS. I think what our sweet elderly poster was saying is the OOS are moving things from a "Mississippi way" to their way of doing things. I will admit Ole Miss does not have the same warm and fuzzy feel I had back in 1982. The traditions have been lost in many way. The Greek system is taking pride in being " a hard rush" and it is skipping over some of the true values and things that were important to us when we were part of the greek system years ago. A degree from Ole Miss is not what it used to be. Being part of greek life at Ole Miss is not what it used to be. The value of this University is dropping and I am sad to see it.
