8 Our Creed The University of Mississippi is a community of learning dedicated to nurturing excellence in intellectual inquiry and personal character in an open and diverse environment. As a voluntary member of this community: I believe in respect for the dignity of each person. I believe in fairness and civility. I believe in personal and professional integrity. I believe in academic honesty. I believe in academic freedom. I believe in good stewardship of our resources. I pledge to uphold these values and encourage others to follow my example. Alma Mater Way down South in Mississippi There s a spot that ever calls Where among the hills enfolded Stand old Alma Mater s halls Where the trees lift high their branches To the whispering Southern breeze There Ole Miss is calling, calling To our hearts fond memories.
