[quote=Anonymous]OP, both of my parents are from MS and I have many cousins/family members/friends who went to Ole Miss. I do not think it has much of an academic reputation outside of the state of MS. I honestly can't imagine someone from DC going there for any academic reasons. There have to be many state schools nearby who offer academics at least as good as Ole Miss. If your daughter wants to end up in the deep south, Ole Miss is just fine but if she wants to live somewhere else, I would not recommend Ole Miss. Apart from academics, the culture of Ole Miss is VERY specific - party school (like many SEC schools), very southern, very preppy, heavy heavy Greek. I grew up in the South and consider myself very culturally Southern and I didn't even consider Ole Miss because I didn't want to be anywhere the prep/Greek, etc. was so emphasized. My guess is that someone from the DC area would feel like a fish out of water there.[/quote]
