re: ASB trying to get rid of Dixie Update: no vote Dixie to stay

Dixie doesnt make Ole Miss. A beautiful campus, beautiful women, a gameday scene that is second to none, a great education, a rising athletic department, and a student body that embodies America...its growing and changing in a good way.

To the guy that says I am what's wrong with Ole Miss you got it all wrong. As a black male in particular I find myself having to defend the University I love whenever its brought up. Why do you like that racist school? ...it's not racist just like America it has a past that it isnt proud of but has done things to move forward. You didnt see the Obama riots? ...that wasnt a riot just a couple idiots and since its MS the story was blown out of porportion by the media.

As a black male how do I honestly defend Ole Miss if there is a public heated debate about saving Dixie, a song that starts off with I wish I was in the land of Cotton???

Personally I dont care if there is a Klan rally before each game, I dont get over emotional about simple things. But if someone does try to change a few things in order to appeal to a large base than just Ole Miss I'm all for it. You should be as well.
