“Ole Miss Students Adore Their Campus”
The Grove is legendary to many and loved by all. It is located right in the center of the University of Mississippi campus. It encompasses itself with approximately 10 acres of beautiful lush grass, magnolia, elm and oak trees. Many students who attend Ole Miss would have to say that it is their favorite place to be on campus. It is a great place to spend time at, whether it is with friends or family members. Students are often seen studying, reading books, hanging out, playing sports, walking dogs, and tailgating in the Grove. In 1998, the Ole Miss Alumni Association’s Grove Society began in order to preserve the beauty of the green space that the Grove offers. During Ole Miss’ home football games, fans will arrive and stake out their space as early as the night before for purposes of setting up tents. Tailgating is a huge tradition that Ole Miss fans continue to do in style. The average tent will include food, drinks and fun. Students dress in their best attire. Young men will wear blazers and button-up shirts. Young ladies will wear brightly colored dresses. It is one party that anyone can attend. In addition to the Grove serving as a place for tailgating, it also serves as a host for movies. It has a great size stage that entertains many with concerts and movies. Ole Miss students are very, very fortunate to have such a beautiful campus, especially the Grove. It’s just a great place to do anything at.
