Our list of firsts is splendid. Our alumni have been distinguished leaders in diverse fields for generations. As that proud legacy enters a new century, we have an opportunity indeed, a mandate to make a renewed commitment to excellence that goes beyond anything done during our first 150 years.

The campaign could not come at a more opportune time than the confluence of our Sesquicentennial with the dawn of the 21st century. This is our time, says Chancellor Robert Khayat. Everything is in place. For questions, comments, or more information, contact The University of Mississippi Foundation .
