So they had to lower the bar for kids from Mississippi to be able to attend?

Checks out.


Regulated by the state as to not screw over the smaller public schools in the state. Neither of the big 3 MS schools like it.

Nothing else to do in either state. Might as well sit around and write.

The admission standards are so low that they can get in. They get rejected everywhere else

1. Close to home if you're from SEMO-and culture is essentially the same.
2. Scholarship (in-state tuition).
3. Oxford is a great town.
4. Ole Miss is a fun school.
5. Beautiful women.

Kansas City is the easternmost western city and St. Louis the westernmost eastern city in the state. The latter is part of the Rust Belt.

Gussie Busch's great grandson, who's named Gussie, was a walk on at Bama in 2013 or 14.

The son of a guy that I work with went to Ole Miss. He lives in his dad's basement now.

If you have a decent GPA and ACT score, you can go to Arkansas for about the same price as Mizzou is in state.
