Fall Homecoming Week gears up for the big game with events like the Mechanical Shark and more – all culminating in the crowning of the Homecoming Court on Saturday. Spring Landshark week features events like the rock wall, snow cones, and Putt Putt on the Plaza.

Year-round events engage students in traditions central to the culture of Ole Miss, generating pride and enthusiasm and instilling common values. One such event, Rebel Run, sees our first-year students take the field before a football game at Vaught-Hemmingway Stadium.

From showcasing our students' talents to jamming out to outside performers, entertainment events offer something for everyone. Fall and spring concerts, the Ole Miss Idol student singing competition, and SAA Unplugged singing and dancing showcase all make for a rockin' good time.

Welcome Week kicks off the fall semester; Hotty Toddy Holidays rings in the season; and special events like the silent disco, Puppies on the Plaza, Ballpit with Strangers, and a monthly movie series keep students engaged year-round.

Miss University, an official preliminary competition for Miss Mississippi and Miss America, allows contestants to display their talent, public speaking ability, and stage presence. The winner, crowned each fall, serves as a university ambassador in speaking, performance, and service engagements. Parade of Beauties, a longstanding tradition, showcases contestants' grace, poise, and beauty, with the winner named Ole Miss Most Beautiful.
