...we have a tradition that encompasses all races, creeds, and colors, yet we're the ones that get spat on by the SEC.
"If they are the flagship, then we are the spaceship".
And the medical school isn't on the main campus. Also, I remember my last year at State, UMC had accepted more into the medical school from MSU than any other school.

The traditions of Umiss are as follows.
1- Ole Miss: who was married to the "Ole Massa"
2- Dixie: which was the ballad of your lost cause.
3- Col. Reb: who was an officer in your lost cause.
4- Rebels: the soldiers of your lost cause, they surely were not Freedom Riders
5- Red and Blue: which are the colors of the lost cause and its flag.
6- Confederate Flag: not banned rather the stick that is attached tothis flagis banned
7- "The South will Rise Again": sung at UMiss football games and Klan rallies.
For the sake of brevity, I'll stop here.
And you call MSU fans rednecks?!?!

That is correct and has been for about the last 20 years. More MSU students get accepted in UMC than from any other school.Barkman Turner Overdrive wrote:[/b said:
Is that you fly the same mother17ing stars and bars at EVERY event, as well. Do you even register what I'm talking about?
Oh yeah, the MISSISSIPPI FLAG.
So calling you any less "racist" is just a blind stab at something that you know nothing about.
Until the stars and bars are removed from Mississippi's flag, no fan base has any room whatsoever to label another as "racist."

Edit to add:"From Dixie with Love"is an official song on your band's website that was banned because people said "The south shall rise again" not the other words included:
</p>
<font size="2">O, I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.</font></p>
In Dixie Land where I was born in
Early on one frosty mornin’
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.</p>
Chorus:
O, I wish I was in Dixie!
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I’ll take my stand
To live and die in Dixie
Away, away,
Away down south in Dixie!
</p>

There is nothing wrong with any of the confederate type things Ole Miss fans do or used to do. The only thing I can understand is not being allowed to bring in the flag poles... The flag, the song, they are all tradition. Almost all of Mississippi has this in their families past. To try to pretend like we don't or to claim a school is wrong for using those things is what is wrong.
I hate Ole Miss with a passion, but it is not right to strip away their tradition as long as it's not directly dangerous to others around them. Now if they decide to stop on their own b/c of pressure form other groups, then that's their fault. And I believe that is actually what has happened for most of these things.
