Chi Epsilon is a national honor society for Civil Engineering students. There are over one hundred chapters, nationally. The Ole Miss Chapter was founded in 1937 as the fourteenth chapter in the United States and the first chap- ter in the Southeast. The objectives of the Ole Miss Chapter are to maintain and promote the status of Civil En- gineering as an ideal profession at the Uni- versity of Mississippi, to bestow honor upon Civil Engineering juniors, seniors and graduate students who have demonstrated exceptional scholarship and to develop the qualities of character, practicality and sociablity in each member of the chapter. 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.

A . Q 0|j Distinction Academic excellence has been the foremost pursuit of The University of Mississippi for almost 1 50 years- an ideal that remains with Ole Miss throughout the years and is as ever- changing as the generations of sprited alumni who know that although one receives a diploma one never really graduates from Ole Miss. As years go by students come and go. Many students have left their mark on the Ole Miss campus and are ready to embark on what the world has to offer them. They are ready to make their mark on society. Whether they leave Ole Miss with a Liberal Arts degree, a Music degree or a Business degree they are capable of using it to their advantage to become attorneys, preformers, doctors, politicians, or whaterever they aspire to be. And this year we would like to honor those alumni who used their education at Ole Miss to their advantage. wMMMkt THE UNlVllilTY if REfPCCTIR iUT Oil llff It tOVlft THE UHlVERilTV OIVEi A DinO U AND SEGRETfUlLY TIRMINAT19 TINURC, BUT OWI KEVER GRADUATE!
