GQAWAHQH 2001 Four years ago, stepping on to this campus was like stepping into a whole new world. You didn ' t know whom you... Q would meet, whom you would become friends with or what in the world might happen to you. But times change and here we are: on the verge of a completely different life away from all the charms and headaches of college life. Wherever you are, you ' ll still be rooting on the Rebels in football, basketball, baseball and every other sport. You ' ll still be reading the Daily Mississippian on the Internet and complaining about how the liberal rag is full of it. You might even find your way back on to campus for a party or two. But it won ' t be the same and hopefully you ' ll have more money and won ' t have to drink the cheap beer. On the night of graduation we should all come together and burn every last green parking ticket that was ever written. Never having to share a room Sludcni Life or an apartment with a person you have never seen or met before Hallelujah! Having to pay double your tuition for three books that you will never crack the binder of and thank God college only lasts for four years. Having to find -JEREMY LODEN a parking space when every space allotted for commuters is surrounded by a gray wall and good riddance. Nevertheless, looking back on the last four years, Ole Miss has changed dramatically for the better. From the sesquicentennial to the renovated Lyceum to the election of two African Americans as Associated Student Body president, from the myriad of construction projects on campus to the capture of a Phi Beta Kappa chapter, the university has grown by leaps and bounds in these last few years. Coming to Ole Miss as an intrepid freshman and not knowing a soul on campus or anything about its history was a major culture shock for me back in 1997. Now, after meeting hundreds of people and making dozens of friends, spending countless hours laboring and toiling away the nights at The DM, missing classes left, right, sideways and curved, it ' s over. All the work, fun times and experiences are new chapter is hard unbelievable over and a opening up. -WRITTEN BY BRIAN ROSENKRANS
