University of Mississippi Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at University of Mississippi accurate?

Taylor

not everyone at Ole Miss are stuck up rich kids. There is a great diversity about our campus. I had originally thought the same stereotype when I came here, but I realized shortly after I came here that the stereotype was not true.

Jesse

Yes, for the most part.

ali

yes and no. greek life is a huge part of campus, but our campus is small. even if you don't join a sorority of fraternity, there are still a lot of things for you to get involved in. many students are rich and conservative, but there are just as many that are the exact opposite. there really is a place for everyone.

Shelly

Some are accurate, but a lot of the students don't fit in that category at all. I most certainly don't. A lot of my friends are actually here on scholarship just like I am so not everyone is a spoiled rich kid.

Ann

For a minority these stereotypes are accurate, but I have met so many more great people who are down to earth and natural. The good people I have met far outweigh the fake people.

Elizabeth

Not at all! Most Ole Miss students are dilligent students, great friends, and work hard in everything they do.

Mary

Mostly

Jordan

Yes, very much. But one should know this is coming from the eyes of someone involved in the Greek scene. Most everyone I know is in a fraternity or sorority, and I can't name people that come to Ole Miss and are not involved with Greek life in some way.
