Welcome to Ole Miss
A few years ago, we were just like you: new students at the
University of Mississippi. The next few days will be exciting,
overwhelming and very tiring. Your head will be swimming with
rules, regulations and responsibilities you didn’t think about
when you applied.
That’s where “The Rebel Guide” comes in. Spend some time with
us. We will provide a break for you and your families to realize that amid the stress that accompanies this transition, there
are many positive things to look forward to when you make the
move to Oxford in the fall. You will learn a bit more about Ole
Miss and Oxford from students who were in your shoes not too
long ago. And you’ll have some fun along the way.

What Is Your ‘A’ Game?
By Bret Plymire
First-year college students typically
develop expectations about college
life long before they leave home to
attend their desired university.
University of Mississippi psychology and pharmacology professor
Kenneth Sufka wrote a book with
the goal of teaching students how
to adjust to the new responsibilities
that come with living on their own.
Sufka has been teaching at the
University of Mississippi for 21 years
and said he encounters a lot of students struggling in their courses.
Wanting to help resolve some
of the issues students were facing,
he wrote the book “The A Game:
Nine Steps to Better Grades.”
“I wanted to find the most common mistakes that people make, and
I’m going to get them back on the
right track, and I’m going to say it in
as few words as possible but in a way
that is most accessible,” Sufka said.
One obstacle to student success has
to do with their approach to classroom engagement and studying, using
techniques that carried them through
high school.
“Many students have not
changed their
paradigm of
learning from
high school to
college, leading
them not to
have any clearcut goals,” said
Sparky Reardon, the University of Mississippi Dean of Students.
“Just showing up to a test is not
enough; you must prepare accordingly.”
Reardon added: “Many students see college as being much
more than class and homework. For
many, schoolwork is what is done
when there’s nothing else to do.”
Sufka said when students come to

Mississippi, sits with a poster of his published book, called The A Game.
visit him about their inability to make
good grades, he tries to work like a
detective to figure out what is holding
them back from learning the material.
“I look at the way students do things
and I would say that anywhere from 50
percent to 80 percent of their study time
is a complete
and utter waste,”
Sufka said.
College
students tend to
worry about what
they know before
taking an exam,
but Sufka said
that is a mistake.
“You’re
always asking
yourself the
question of what you know, but
you need to be worrying about
what you don’t know,” he said.
In psychology, this is called rehearsal
learning or retrieval practice, which
Sufka said is a great way to study more
efficiently. This is also a form of selftesting that has high-yielding effects.
Ginger Baldwin, a senior pathol-

the question of what
you know, but you need
to be worrying about
what you don’t know. ”

ogy major at Ole Miss, said it took
her a semester before she learned
how to change the study habits she
had acquired in high school.
“Freshman year, time management
was hands down the hardest challenge
for me,” Baldwin said. “Especially
while not having parental or
teacher guidance telling me to
study or to attend classes.
“I finally figured out that going to
class is literally half the battle, as well
as reading and relearning what we just
covered in class so I could be better
prepared for my next quiz or test.”
Sufka said his book is a fundamental
guide to help students study smarter.
“You may not want to study
harder and you certainly don’t
want to study longer. You have
to study smart,” he said.
Sufka said the main goal for
this book was to send students on
their way with a life preserver.
“These are very specific things you
have to do and do them in the correct
sequence,” he said. “My motivation
was to give students leaving my office
something they could always revisit.”
Fairly Realistic
QUESTION
I’m broke. Can you give me money? Pretty please?
Semi-Practical
ANSWER
Nope, sorry, we’re broke, too.
Everyone’s financial situation in college is different, but if you’re like many students trying to
get by each semester on loan disbursements and the occasional pity allowance your parents
throw your way, you should probably know there are more options.
There are jobs everywhere on campus and in Oxford. Check out the human resources
website, see if you qualify for Work Study (in financial aid) or just start asking around.
Remember, even if a certain place isn’t hiring, you can always fill out an application so they
have your name on file for later.

John Chisholm, John D. Martin and John L. Craig donated the land
now known as Oxford. The three residents of Lafayette County contributed 50 acres of land once owned by the Chickasaw Indian Nation.
The South’s oldest documented store, Neilson’s, was founded in
1839 and is still located on the southeast corner of the Square.
The University of Mississippi opened its doors in 1848 to 80 students and
has since grown to become the landmark of Oxford.
Lafayette County, where Oxford is centrally located, was named for
Marquis de Lafayette, the young French aristocrat who fought alongside
the Americans during the Revolutionary War.
In 1864 the Square was completely burned down during the Civil War by
Major General Andrew Jackson Smith.
John Grisham, author of legal thrillers such as “A Time to Kill,” still owns
a house in Oxford and visits frequently.
Oxford served as the inspiration for William Faulkner’s fictional town of
Jefferson in all but three of his novels.
The University of Mississippi Medical Center accomplished the world’s first
human lung transplant in 1963.
The double-decker bus that Oxford imported from England in 1994 originally inspired the Double Decker Festival.
Musicians such as Modest Mouse, Gavin DeGraw, Elvis Costello and the
Counting Crows have all recorded albums at Sweet Tea Recording Studio in
Oxford.

It’s A Major Decision,
So Don’t Rush It
By Lindsey Boudreau
Picture this: You have just arrived
on campus for your freshman year
of college, and people are asking
you “where you are from?” and
“what is your major?” You panic
because you are only 18 years old
and have no idea what you want to
do with the rest of your life.
It is all OK, so there is no need to
panic.
RIGHT: Students take a break between
classes to grab coffee at the Student
Union. Take time to learn what you
are passionate about before you
choose a major.

Wesley Dickens, a career-planning specialist at the Ole Miss Career Center, said that many
freshmen feel pressure and anxiety to already know what they are going to do for the rest
of their lives. He tells students not to feel forced to pick a major before sophomore year. He
gives students five steps to help find the right major.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
GET TO KNOW YOURSELF.
A person’s personality is a key part of finding the right major. By becoming involved around campus, you will be able to figure out what you enjoy doing. You can also gauge your interests. By overlapping personality
traits and interests, you can start to see what kind of major you would be
good at and also enjoy.
WRITE DOWN MAJORS AND CAREERS
YOU THINK YOU WOULD ENJOY.
Start by looking at the degrees offered by the school on olemiss.edu. Eliminate majors that do not interest you and write down the ones that do.
LEARN ABOUT MAJORS THAT INTEREST YOU.
In this step, you need to ask yourself if the majors you wrote down would lead
to careers you think you would like. Some questions to ask about each major
would be: What kinds of skills are needed for this career? How much do I value
money, and does this career coincide with my values? Do I need to pursue additional education after a bachelor’s degree? Does this career have benefits? By
asking these questions, you can begin to get a feel for what majors are a good fit.
NARROW YOUR LIST OF MAJORS.
Make a pro-con list among the remaining majors. Then, get out there. Volunteer, complete an internship and work. See if you enjoy working in a job field
pertaining to you top major choices. Pick the one that you feel suits you the best.
VISIT THE CAREER CENTER.
If you still need help on choosing a major, go to the Ole Miss Career Center
and meet with a counselor who can help guide you in the right direction.
WHAT NOT TO DO:
Don’t sit in your residence hall all year and think the right major will just pop in your
head. You have to get out there and research different majors to find which one would
be the best for you. Dickens said, “We are counselors, and we can counsel you through
these things, but the ultimate decision is up to the student.”

Centers Of Support For Students
By MarKeicha Dickens
You know the history behind the Lyceum. You’ve heard about the Grove
and you know the places on campus
where you can grab a bite to eat, but
do you know what the Writing Center is? Did you know that there is a
counselor available 24 hours a day by
phone for emergency purposes thanks
to the UM Counseling Center? Did
you know that you could receive credit
for taking an exercise course at the
Turner Center? You should take advantage of each of these free student
services available to you.
Photo by JAMIE KENDRICK
The Writing Center
The Writing Center offers in-person
or online consultations to students for
free. Director Brad Campbell said that
about 50 percent of incoming freshmen use the center over the course of
the year.
“They (freshmen) are by far our largest client base,” he said.
There is a common misconception
that the Writing Center is merely an
“editing service,” but Campbell said
that is absolutely untrue.
“We like to be collaborative,” he
said. “Many students aren’t aware that
we provide assistance at all stages of
the writing process. If you need help
with developing a topic, thesis statement, outline or even help with technology when creating a multimedia
project, we can certainly help.”
Students can set up appointments
online through the Writing Center’s
website and can even use the “Ask a
Question” option to chat with a staff
member when the center is open.
The Counseling Center
Your problems matter. College can
be very stressful, and if you feel like
you can’t talk to friends or family about
issues going on in your life, you can
visit the Counseling Center. The center offers personal and group therapy
sessions as well as crisis intervention.
16 | The Rebel Guide | Summer 2014
Kandace Belk and Grace Boyne visit the Writing Center often for guidance.
Students leave the Writing Center feeling more confident after receiving help
with their writing skills.
There is also a counselor available 24
hours a day for emergency assistance.
You can speak with licensed professionals about anything from relationship issues to eating disorders.
“The counseling center can provide
a place for students to discuss their
concerns with a professional who can
hear them and help them find better
ways to deal with those concerns,”
Director Marc Showalter said. “Staff
members from the center also do outreach on campus to help students learn
more about issues like stress, anxiety,
depression and other topics that can
help them have a better experience in
school.”
Showalter said that a large number
of students use the Counseling Center
and quite a few of those students are
classified as freshmen. However, many
students don’t recognize the benefits a
service like this can offer. They focus
on the stereotypes that come along
with visiting a counselor or a therapist.
“Many students either aren’t aware
of the center or they think a student
has to be crazy or have a very serious
problem to come in,” he said. “The
truth is that we see hundreds of stu-
dents every semester and most of
them are just like every other student,”
Showalter said.
The Turner Center
Exercise is essential to maintaining a
healthy lifestyle. I’m sure you will hear
a lot about the Turner Center once
you get on campus, but what you probably won’t hear is that you can take an
exercise course and receive one credit
hour. Staying fit and receiving an elective credit hour toward your degree is a
pretty sweet deal. Director of Campus
Recreation Peter Tulchinsky said there
are many things students do not know
about the Turner Center.
“There are a variety of programs
offered through Campus Recreation,”
he said. “Our outdoors program offers
several weekend trips to participate in
activities such as hiking, camping, canoeing and rock climbing.”
There is also a challenge course
available on Friday afternoons for students who want to start their weekend
with a thrill. Aside from those activities, the Turner Center also offers several different sports clubs, intramural
sports and swimming lessons.

Pros And Cons: Is Bringing
A Car Necessary For Freshmen?
By Katherine Patterson
Ole Miss allows freshmen to
bring a car their first year, but it is
not always necessary. Mike Harris, the university’s director of parking and transportation, recommends that freshmen
not bring a car their first semester.
“One should give it a try for
a semester or two and see how it
works,” Harris said. “The alternative transportation options can
get you where you need to go. It
just takes a little planning and patience.”
About 75 to 80 percent of students have vehicles. Students who
do bring cars to Oxford do so for
the convenience of being able to
get where they need to go on their
own time.
Kyndall Vise, from Petal, Miss.,
was a freshman this past year and
chose to bring a car.
“I like being able to get places on
my own without relying on other
people to do it for me,” she said,
“I’m very independent. I don’t see
how people function without one.”
Not every student feels the same
way, however. Senior Gaby Rodriguez from Tampa, Fla., preferred
not having the responsibility of a
car when she was a freshman.
“I thought it was going to be a
hassle, but honestly it didn’t make
a difference not having one,” she
said, “When you’re living on campus, you can walk pretty much anywhere. Multiple people have cars
you can ride with when leaving
campus or there is an OUT (Oxford University Transit) bus option.”
Not having a car can cut out mul22 | The Rebel Guide | Summer 2014
File Photo
tiple expenses. You don’t have to
worry about gas, oil changes, insurance and the overall maintenance
of your car. Parking is also very
stressful, and there is no guarantee
that you will always have a parking
spot in your parking zone.
There are several alternatives students can use, such as the OUT bus
system with several routes throughout the Ole Miss campus and Oxford, the Megabus stop on the edge
of campus that will take passengers
to various cities such as Memphis
and Birmingham at reasonable
rates, the on-campus Zipcar option
and Zimride, an online site where
students can carpool with other
students going to the same location.
If you choose not to bring a car,
know that there are multiple options for getting around. If you have
your heart set on bringing your car,
however, keep in mind that parking
on campus is limited. Parking director Mike Harris urges
students to weigh the pros
(convenience) and the cons (cost,
frustration trying to find a parking
spot) as they make the decision
whether to bring a car.
Fairly Realistic
QUESTION
Will I be shunned if I don’t dress up for the Grove
on game days?
Semi-Practical
ANSWER
Sigh...
As with any tradition, you will certainly encounter several students, alumni and fans on game
days dressed in their Sunday best and giving anyone who isn’t a very concerned, disapproving
stare. However, no one is forcing you to wear a cocktail dress or suit to a football game.
It is a popular ritual and fun to try at least once, though. Unless you’re a girl and you think you
have to wear uncomfortable heels — bring flats, ladies.

22 Life Hacks For Every
First-Year College Student
By Sidney Williams
This is a reprint of an article
published in 2013 in The
Daily Mississippian. Sidney
Williams graduated from Ole
Miss last spring. He wrote,
“On the verge of graduation and somewhat leaving
the only life I’ve really ever
known, I’ve compiled a list
of the most important things
I’ve learned over the years.”
24 | The Rebel Guide | Summer 2014
Grades
1. Working hard early on in the
game makes the ending a lot easier.
Don’t waste your first few years
of college with the “I’ll get it done”
mindset. Have your fun, but remember that the more you put off for
later, the less fun you can have when
you’re actually old enough to do so.
2. Suck up and speak up.
I still giggle about the idiots who
told me brown-nosing didn’t work in
college. Develop relationships with
See LIFE HACKS, PAGE 25
31452
LIFE HACKS,
continued from page 24
your teachers. Trust me, if you give
a little, they’ll help pick up the slack.
All a (good) teacher really wants is
for you to participate in class. Speak
up. Have an opinion to offer. Say it
with a little wit, and even if it’s incorrect, the teacher will be sure to
note that you helped break an awkward silence.
3. Are you an early bird or all-nighter?
Mama isn’t there to hound you or
help you study like she was in high
school. Learn early on in the game
whether you can get more accomplished late at night or early in the
morning and which study buddy
(e.g., coffee, Red Bull, etc.) you’ll
need, because you know as well as I
do that mid-afternoon studying has
become a thing of the past.
Body
4. Get your wisdom teeth cut out before you get your braces.
Take it from Dr. Seuss himself:
“Teeth are always in style.” From
someone who’s had braces and experienced the aftermath and shifts
— just go ahead and get rid of the
pesky little suckers before you start
the process, or you’re sure to experience some crooked results. Trust
me, shift happens.
5. Know the do’s and don’ts of hair.
Hey, we all like to experiment
with the hairdo, and change can be
beneficial! But from someone who’s
been red, permed, Bieber-swooped
and copycatted — just think about it
before you do it. Some decisions are
easier to fix than others.
Money
6. Invest in things that withstand the
test of time.
I put this right after “Body” because looking back on how many
pieces of clothing I bought that I no
longer wear just makes me sick! Buy
timeless pieces. If you treat your
body right, you can get a minimum
of 10 years out of one shirt. (And
even if clothing may not be your
vice, you get the point.)
7. Pay for memories, not solely tangible possessions.
Your house can burn down. Your
clothes can shrink. Your iPhone can
crack. But your memories can never
be replaced. Take a trip with those
closest to you. Host events that are
more about the experience than the
product. Take too many pictures (but
don’t always feel the need to show
them all to the Facebook realm).
Family
8. Get everything out of your parents while you can.
Yeah, that sounds really shallow
and moochy, but whatever. That’s
what Christmases are for, dimwit!
Get the expensive things you need
from them while you can. Student
loans can be evil, why buy your own
luggage, and Lasik sure does come
in handy! Sure, everyone’s financial situations are different, but take
what you can get when you can get
it. (Thanks, Pops.)
Stop forcing it and just live your
life. Love will meet you somewhere
along the way. And when you do get
it, know that it doesn’t just get better
with time. If you’re having to force
it now, or if something isn’t working
or doesn’t feel right, giving it time
rarely changes or fixes it.
11. Wounds heal, but you’ll have a
scar.
As different as your situation is
and as dramatic as your breakup was
compared to everyone else’s since
the dawn of day, that’s one thing
that time does fix: wounds. So cry.
Let it out. Go ahead and tell your
friends how they’re wrong and they
don’t understand and that your situation is different, but at the end of
the day, (a lot of) time will help that
wound scab right on up. Yeah, you’ll
have a scar left when it’s all said and
done, but that’s just a part of it.
Reactions
12. Silence is the best response to a
fool.
While you’re grieving or fuming
or whatever you’re doing, just know
that everything you say can and will
be held against you. Think before
you speak and watch what you say
and to whom you say it.
Go ahead and try your darndest
to pretend like mama doesn’t know
best, but I bet you a cookie that that
boy she didn’t want you dating was
a douche bag. That friend she told
you was trouble? Peasant. Just give
it a little time, and you’ll see that everything your mama told you would
happen totally comes true. She’s
psychic, you know.
Really ponder whether your
words will come back to bite you or
not. And for goodness’ sake, if you
are going to let your melodramatic
retaliation of words out, don’t write
them down. Call and yell at him;
don’t text. Cause a scene in person
rather than on a Facebook wall.
Once it’s written down, all it takes
is one screenshot the second before
you delete it to ensure it’s permanent public knowledge.
Relationships
13. Delete your Twitter for a while.
9. Listen to your mama.
10. Love happens when you least expect it.
Cliché, huh? Everyone will tell you
the same thing about “not looking
for love when you find it” and blah,
blah, blah. But you know what?
Say what? Yep. Do it. Heck, you
have 30 days before you lose all your
followers, and there is nothing more
embarrassing and harmful than a

LIFE HACKS,
continued from page 25
Twitter in moments of emotional
instability. You’re going to tweet
something dumb. You’re going to
see something that ticks you off (and
probably has nothing to do with you
in the first place).
Principles
14. You’re not perfect either.
Your argument won’t always be
valid. Your heart won’t always be
golden. You aren’t always the victim. You’re going to treat someone
terribly even when you don’t mean
to, just like you’ll be treated horribly
at some point(s) in your life. Learn
how to apologize and do it sincerely.
15. Things change.
I think the biggest “thing” I noticed about college was the transition. Mindsets change in college.
Your eyes will inevitably be opened
to things you were once against, just
like you’ll decide you oppose the
side of an issue you always supported. You will betray your convictions
on certain topics, and you can’t beat
yourself up for it. This can be good
or bad.
People who should have been accepted in high school can finally live
their lives the way they want to. People who got unnecessary amounts
of attention in high school will start
to be seen for whom they really are
(though, let’s face it: popular people
are popular, and they’ll probably get
just as much attention in college,
too). The point is, don’t be afraid
of change. Change is inevitable.
Growth is optional.
16. Lying is bad.
Granted, there are times, especially when dealing with family
members or significant others, when
timing is more of the issue than lying (yes, it may be better to tell them
26 | The Rebel Guide | Summer 2014
later than sooner), but lying always
makes it worse. They’re going to be
mad either way, so take the easy way
out and just be honest with people.
17. The random text is powerful.
Take time out of your week to
send polite, unexpected messages
to someone who may or may not
need it. Don’t you like random, kind
words from someone you didn’t expect to contact you? Of course. But
there are some rules to the random
text.
1) It’s something to do in private.
Only you and the recipient of your
kind words should know what you
said. If someone else finds out, it
should be because your recipient
chose to share how kind you were,
not because you want the glory or
praise.
2) Do not ruin this gesture by
sending everyone in your phone a
sweet text message on the same day,
or even in the same week. The point
is to be sporadic and unexpected
in making someone’s day (not going through your phonebook with a
mass text). If you do, you’re sure to
forget someone.
Age/Maturity
18. Jealousy is the ugliest trait.
Be happy for people. If it bothers
you so badly, then work harder. Give
credit where credit is due. Listen to
people who have already done what
you’re doing and learn from them.
Congratulate people who have more
than you or who beat you. Smile to
their face and then go talk about
them behind their back to your closest friend like a normal person, but
don’t look jealous. It’s just ugly.
Friendship
19. Four of a kind beats a full house.
While you’re living that freshman
year, you’ll find yourself surrounded
with a considerably larger number of friends than you had in high
school. And, hey, that’s great! Being
liked is always a plus. But know who
your true friends are. Don’t trust
someone just because he or she is
fun and doesn’t seem to judge you.
Warning sign: the more “fun” you’re
having with someone new, the less
you should probably trust them. You
need a handful of really close friends
that you trust, and while you should
always entertain other acquaintances, be careful what you say.
Miscellaneous
20. Evening rituals
Take time out of your day to
reflect. It will amaze you what a
brisk evening walk can do for your
disposition. Have a quiet 10 or 20
minutes to think things over. While
you’re letting your life choices sink
in, remember that there are no right
or wrong choices, but rather, the decisions that you take and make right
for yourself.
21. Live (with someone) outside the
box.
I’ve had three different roommates throughout my college career,
and not a single one of them was a
white male like myself. Mix it up!
Live with someone of another race,
gender, sexual orientation or whatever demographic interests you. You
will never learn more than you will
from living with someone who is
somehow different from you.
But above all else, in my 22 years,
the one thing that I truly want to
share with you, my one problemfree philosophy:
22. You’re never fully dressed without a smile.
No matter what is going on in
your life, remember to always count
your blessings. Those people who
influence you? Put a smile on and
be someone else’s inspiration. Stop
worrying so much. Everything always works out in the end, so turn
that frown upside down and deal
with it. You’ll find that life is still
worthwhile if you just smile.

Roommates: The Best Of Times
And The Worst Of Times
By Nathalie Barreto
There are many things to look forward to and big decisions to be made
when coming to college.
New friends, being one step closer
to your dream career and experiencing what college has to fully offer
you, but most importantly, surrounding yourself with new people and
learning to live outside your comfort
zone. Roommates can either bring
out your best or worst depending on
how much communication there is
with each roommate.
As first-year students, you have the
option to choose who your roommate will be. If you are unsure or
happen to be the only one from your
high school coming to Ole Miss, the
housing department will have you fill
out an information sheet with different themes. Some example questions
are: Do you smoke? Do you drink?
Do you like it hot or do you like it
cold? You will have the ability to
view other students’ answers and
make a decision from there.
“For the most part, our first-year
students have the ability to choose
who their roommate will be,” said
Scott Oliver, assistant director for
residential learning. “We don’t typically do a randomized assignment
31556
28 | The Rebel Guide | Summer 2014
or a potluck kind of assignment like
some schools do.”
First-year students will either live
in contemporary halls, which is a
suite-style living hall, or traditionalstyle halls or a residential hall, where
a faculty member resides. Each living
hall has a Graduate Community
Director and each floor has a Community Assistant for students to come
to when they have questions or need
assistance with any issues they may
have.
Community Assistants are picked
See ROOMMATES, PAGE 29
31532
ROOMMATES,
continued from page 28
through an interview and a selection process. They apply and answer
questions about why they are interested in becoming a Community
Assistant.
“Community Assistants are facilitators for the community,” Oliver said.
“It is typically an upperclassman
student who has matriculated at
the university. Someone who knows
the ropes, knows the resources and
knows how to refer students to those
resources on campus. But they’re also
there to help people know each other
in a community setting, and also,
they do some disciplinarian work
enforcing university policies.”
Molly Jones, a third-year student
from Austin, Texas, has been a Community Assistant in Brown Hall since
fall 2012. Jones said the experience
of being a Community Assistant is
thrilling and intriguing but also very
time-consuming.
“I’m on the clock 24/7 where I
have to be in the building the whole
time doing rounds and dealing with
lockouts and incident reports,”
Jones said. “I usually am on night
and weekly duty from 5 p.m. to 8
a.m.”
Community Assistants are connectors for first-year students and are
trained to handle any issues students
may have with their roommate or
among their dorm.
“Training sessions for us CA’s are
two weeks before school starts,” she
said. “The first week is training, and
the second week is setting everything
up. We get trained on housing, policy
and emergency, medical help, drug
use, using the front desk and getting
along with staff and learn to work
together.”
Graduate Community Directors
oversee the daily operations of their
particular building by supervising the
File Photo
Community Assistants and advising
the Community Council in the building. Other tasks include facilitating
room changes, answering student
questions and getting to know the
students and staff of their building.
“One of the biggest focuses of my
job is serving the students that live in
my building,” said Amanda Abrahamson, a Graduate Community
Director. “Students generally spend
more time in the residence halls
than anywhere else on campus, and
I make it my priority to make it the
best experience possible for them. I
came from Wisconsin, so getting to
know the campus and department
are especially important for those
coming in.”
At first, everything seems so dandy
and perfect, but once classes start
getting a little hectic, roommates
often tend to feel the stress and pressure of not being able to communicate as well as they did at the start of
the semester.
Roommate conflict starts when
people stop being nice and start
getting real, and the Community Assistants are typically the first to know.
At the beginning of the year, students fill out a roommate agreement,
which is essentially a document
that details what they would do if a
conflict arises, how they will use the
space and interact with each other
as well. If the students have filled
out a roommate agreement, both
the Community Assistant and the
Graduate Community Director will
be able to look back on that document and see what they agreed to
originally if an issue surfaces.
“We live in an environment that
is very tech heavy and so things like
text messaging and Facebook messaging sometimes overpowers people’s ability to talk to one another,”
Oliver said. “Community Assistants
are trained to connect and help with
communication and they learn how
to do that in the midst of potential
conflict.”
If you have an issue with your
roommate, there are two steps in
resolving your issue:
Step one: Talk with each other
and try to open up about your problems by sitting down and communicating.
Step two: Speak with professional
staff members such as your floor
Community Assistant or the Graduate Community Director in charge
of your dorm. They will find a resolution for both parties involved.

Think Outside Of Oxford
By Jill Clifton
Although there is always something to do in Oxford such as art
festivals and concerts, there are
many other places nearby worth
your time.
If you do not want to travel far
from town, you can find time to get
in touch with nature at Sardis Lake.
Located about 20 minutes down
College Hill Road, Sardis Lake is
open year-round, so no matter when
you visit, it will be there when you
start to feel adventurous. Also, if you
just so happen to have a boat, there
is a public dock.
“It’s always fun to get a big group
of friends together and ride out to
Sardis on a sunny afternoon,” senior
Zoie Mitchell said. “It is like a
playground for college students and
a nice way to get out of town to fish,
take your dogs out and even ride
four-wheelers around.”
If you are a big Elvis fan, or only
know a few songs, Graceland Too
is on the Landmarks and Historical Buildings lists in Holly Springs,
Miss., and it is only a short, 40-minute drive from Oxford.
Paul MacLeod, owner of Graceland Too, has dedicated his entire
home to the King of Rock n’ Roll,
as Elvis is known, and is open at
all hours. MacLeod will graciously
open his home to anyone and everyone who comes to see his collection
of memorabilia. Some students say
it should be on a list of things to do
before you graduate.
“It is definitely something you
need to see and experience for
yourself,” senior Molly Sanders said.
“If you go three times, then you’re a
lifetime member and get unlimited
free visits, and you can’t forget to get

a picture with Paul to prove you’ve
been.”
Although Oxford is known for its
music scene, Foxfire Ranch in Waterford, Miss., is open on Sundays
starting at 4 p.m. from April through
November. Foxfire has an outdoor
venue for the spring weather and
has added an enclosed room for the
winter weather. This vibrant blues
venue is another way to explore all
the music Mississippi has to offer.
For just a short ride down the road,
you can enjoy down-home cooking
and some funky bluegrass beats.
“The fact that Foxfire is only open
on Sundays is great because even
though the weekend is technically
over, you can always look forward
to discovering a new blues band and
having a phenomenal southern meal
there,” said Christine Anderson,
who works at Visit Oxford.
If a big city life is something that
calls to you while in Oxford, Memphis is only an hour and a half from
Oxford with all the amenities that
a city has to offer. Everything from
famous barbecue joints, to outdoor shopping malls, to exploring
downtown, to attending a Memphis
Grizzlies game is right in the palm
of your hand.
“Sometimes Oxford can feel
claustrophobic because of its size,
but Memphis is a great getaway
because there are so many options
of things to choose from,” Mitchell
said. “There are many ways one can
explore the town they live in, but the
real adventures are when you step
out of your comfort zone and realize
there is more out there.”
Many places sit on the outskirts of
Oxford, so take time to experience
everything these towns have to offer
while you are a student here at Ole
Miss.

With thousands of fans flocking to town this
weekend, it’s easy to see the excitement that’s
swirling in Oxford. Ole Miss welcomes the No.
14 Texas Longhorns for a nonconference clash
in Saturday night’s primetime matchup.
When Ole Miss announced the addition of
Texas to the football schedule in August 2007,
Rebel and Texas fans couldn’t wait for the
matchup. Here it is five years later, and the excitement level is at an unprecedented high.
The Rebels (2-0) will take on the No. 14 Longhorns (2-0) of the Big 12 in Saturday’s ESPN

Ole Miss hasn’t had a home win over a
ranked nonconference opponent from a major
conference in the regular season since defeating
Notre Dame 20-13 on Sept. 17, 1977. It’s gives
the Rebels a huge chance for an eye-popping
win.
“We’re very excited about this week,” Ole
Miss head coach Hugh Freeze said in Monday’s
press conference. “We have one of the nation’s
best teams coming into Oxford. Our kids, fans
and coaches are excited about the opportunity
that it presents.”

Ole Miss loses its Spark
U
niversity of Mississippi Dean
of Students Sparky Reardon,
who has worked at Ole Miss
for 36 years, will retire this
semester. Sparky sat down with The Daily
Mississippian last week to reflect on his past
and discuss some of his future. Since he has
accumulated so much leave over his career,
he has been able to use much of it this year.
“I don’t know if anyone is ever really ready
for retirement,” Sparky said. “The more I
talk to friends who have retired, they tell me
it’s something you just get used to. And I’ve
been able to get a little taste of that with the
leave I’ve been able to take this year.”
Sparky was on campus for many events
— both positive and negative — during his
tenure. When he reflects on them today, he
remembers a few in particular. Perhaps the
most memorable positive event for him was
the presidential debate in 2008.
“That was just a wonderful event for our
students and university,” he said. “I was able
to work with some great student leaders who
came up with the idea of the festival in the
Grove. To me, that was one of the best days
I’ve had at Ole Miss.”
One thing that Sparky talked a good bit
about was how the university has grown over
the years he has been here.

Success in times of adversity: The story of the 1962 Ole Miss football team
BY ADAM GANUCHEAU
thedmnews@gmail.com
On Oct. 1, 1962, James Meredith became
the first black student at The University of
Mississippi. Before and after his official enrollment, violent riots and hate shook the
campus and took the focus off of what Ole
Miss was known for at the time — the most
successful football program in school history.
THE FOOTBALL
Ole Miss head football coach Johnny
Vaught built a program that teams across the
country feared. In 1959, Vaught led the Rebels to their first national championship and
produced the same result the following season. In 1961, the Rebels lost just two games
and finished the season as the fifth-best team
in the nation.
Wanting to prove that they could win a
national championship after the previous
year’s disappointing outcome, the Rebels
understood that 1962 was a very important year. Going into the season, the players

munity,” he said. “Students are much more
involved and active in that regard, and I’m
really pleased to see that.”
He also reflected on some of the down
times.
“Anytime we lost students, those times
were always extremely painful,” he said.
“Other painful times were when students did
stupid things. They put us in the public eye,
and you found yourself explaining, adjudicating, teaching and justifying, and some of
those things were impossible sometimes. It
was hard to see the university get slammed
like that, but I continue to think the best
thing you can do in those situations is just
tell the truth.
“The most painful thing is, I’ve waited 37
years for other students to step up. To actually be on the ground floor when those
things were happening and say, ‘No, you’re
not going to do this.’ I keep looking for the
bystanders.”
When some students see Sparky walking
around campus, they see the administrator
with round glasses who remembers everyone’s name. What they don’t realize is that
Sparky attended Ole Miss as a student in
the early 1970s — an era he called “a very
thoughtful but fun time.”
“We were on the back side of the 1960s,

knew people would be watching how they
would respond following the down year.
“You prepare every season the same way,”
1962 co-starting quarterback Jim Weatherly
said. “We prepared just the same as every
other season with the same goal as every other season—to win—and that was very important to all of us, especially Coach Vaught.”
What the Ole Miss coaches and players
failed to realize was that the eyes of the nation would be on the school for a completely
different reason.
THE BUILDUP
Meredith’s goal to put pressure on President Kennedy’s administration and gain
civil rights for blacks began long before the
federal government ruled that Ole Miss had
to allow him to enroll. He applied to the university the day that President Kennedy was
inaugurated, and he hoped that his goal was
close to being met. He was denied admission to the university on two separate occasions before the U.S. Supreme Court ruled

Story by Adam Ganucheau
AUTHOR’S NOTE: I attended the Auburn-Ole Miss
baseball game April 4, and Sparky threw the ceremonial first pitch to start the series. The team signed
a baseball for Sparky, and he sat two rows in front
of me to watch the game. A young boy, no more
than 5 years old, sat a couple seats down from him.
Sometime in the middle of the game, Sparky gave
the boy the ball. The boy’s eyes lit up and he looked
over toward his mother, who smiled at Sparky and
assured her son it was his to keep.
Sparky didn’t know I was watching, and I don’t
think anyone else saw it. He didn’t do it for me to
write about it in The DM — it was just a genuine
gesture to make the kid happy. I believe that moment
in Oxford-University Stadium that night is a testament
to Sparky’s whole career at Ole Miss. He is always
there, always doing things for the benefit of young
folks, and he never does anything for recognition.
He has genuinely cared about the university and its
students.
I truly enjoyed getting to know Sparky a little over
the past four years, and I know I am not the only one
who can say that. Best wishes, Sparky. I know we’ll
all run into you in the Grove or at Swayze in the
years to come.

School Spirit At Its Finest
By Peyton Spear
Students at The University of
Mississippi add a lot to the atmosphere and experience when attending an athletic event on campus.
They also have a lot to gain. Every
time a football game rolls around
on a Saturday in the fall or the first
pitch is thrown at a softball game in
the spring, students have a chance
to display their school spirit and
pride.
“Ole Miss is part of the Southeastern Conference and being a
part of multiple activities while
attending a university is part of the
entire experience,” said Lynnette
Johnson, executive associate athletics director.
With 13 different sports at Ole
Miss, students have a wide variety
of opportunities to cheer on their
Rebels. Ole Miss is known for its
enthusiastic student sections. The
noise not only fires up the crowd,
but also serves as a large source of
support and motivation for studentathletes. It is also difficult for opposing teams to compete at a high level
on the road when they cannot hear
calls or focus on their task at hand.
Beginning in 2016, Ole Miss plans
on making the environment and
experience at basketball games even
more exciting for students and fans
while making it even tougher for
visiting teams.
A brand new basketball arena
is scheduled to open and will hold
9,500 fans and include a private student concourse as well as baseline
and courtside seating for students.
The student section will take up
the majority of the area surrounding the court, which will provide
an up-close and personal viewing
opportunity at men’s and women’s
basketball games.
“The experience for students will
be unique and something we have
never done before,” said Paris Buchanan, assistant director of marketing and fan experience.
Currently, the student section at
basketball games in the Tad Smith
Coliseum is adjacent to a single
See SPIRIT, PAGE 34
31573
Summer 2014 | The Rebel Guide | 33
SPIRIT,
continued from page 33
side of the court and takes up a
fifth of the entire arena. There are
no roped-off sections designated
specifically for students to hang out
and grab a snack, so the new arena
will enhance the atmosphere for
students.
In addition to the new basketball
arena, Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, home to the Ole Miss football
team, will soon undergo renovations
that will include enclosing the north
end zone, video board enhancements and additional suites on the
south and west sides of the stadium.
These improvements will draw
even larger crowds of students and
alumni, and bowling in the north
end zone will make it even louder in
the stands and on the field.
“I cannot imagine the experience
students will get to have in a few
years,” junior Brad Bloxom said.
Although he is currently a student at Ole Miss, Bloxom jokes that
without being biased, he would pick
Ole Miss all over again if he were
applying to schools just to be a part
of the environment the school will
bring to athletic events in the near
future.
College only lasts a few years, and
it is important to make the most of
your time. Sometimes there will be
losses and other times there will be
wins, but leading the crowd in the
“Hotty Toddy” or singing the Ole
Miss Alma Mater with fellow fans
following a game is what being a
Rebel is all about to alumnus Isaac
Lichlyter.
“As a graduate of Ole Miss, I
have seen first-hand that the student
section is what motivates the rest of
the stadium to cheer on the Rebels,”
Lichlyter said. “Win or lose, that
type of atmosphere always makes
me proud to say that I am an Ole
Miss Rebel.”
