The Ole Miss Chapter was founded in 1937 as the fourteenth chapter in the United States and the first chap- ter in the Southeast.

In order to carry out these objectives the Chapter provides a num- ber of services such as organizing a FE review course, providing free tutoring to other civil engineering students, recognizing the outstand- ing civil engineering freshman and senior civil engineering scholar, organizing and providing funds for field trips, writing an annual alumni newsletter, setting up displays and projects for Career Day and assisting in Engineering High School programs such as TEAMS and MATHCOUNTS. To foster sociability, mem- bers participate in pizza parties, bowling out- ings and a Spring picnic.
