According to your own school's website, 60% of the Oxford campus students are from Misssissippi
No, you read it wrong. The 60% applies to undergraduates on ALL campuses, combined. As with the medical center (which is in Jackson, by the way, not in Oxford), the "satellite" commuter campuses have enrollments that consist almost entirely of Mississippi residents.
But fewer than half the undergraduate students on the main campus in Oxford are from Mississippi. Again, I have this directly from the lips of senior administrators at the university, so I know what the facts are.
I was just answering the original question in the thread, not being "uppity"

Maybe I did. So the 18,794 enrollment is several campuses, not just Oxford. Like Tupelo and Southhaven? How many students are in Oxford?

Look again, the "Quick Facts" page clearly states that all stats used solely represent the Oxford, MS undergraduate campus

Rebellious, I'm not quite certain why you've chosen to die in a ditch over this particular issue, but either the university's website is incorrect, or the administrator with whom you've been talking is misinformed.
