Former UM Chancellor, Robert Khayat
"It's unusual for a university to be blessed with the amount of green space we enjoy, and it really sets the mood of this campus. Any gathering place needs to be treasured. Stewardship of the Grove is not solely the responsibility of the university, but of all who love and use it."
The Grove -
Voted "The Most Beautiful Campus" by USA Today
The honor reflects the care and pride taken in maintaining a campus that serves as both an academic hub and a beautiful environment for students, faculty, and visitors alike. Whether it's the iconic Lyceum, the stately columns of the Old Capitol, or the serene Grove, Ole Miss stands out as a place where beauty and tradition meet.
