Southern Misses | Eagle Fever | Go Gold! | History | Publications | Athletics | Student Organizations | Prominent Alumni
Located in front of the Alumni House, the campus historical District has acted as a gathering place for Southern Miss students and alumni since the founding of the University. During football season, The District becomes a hotbed of activity as students, alumni and friends of Southern Miss gather to tailgate before each home game. Tents are set up, and by game day, The District transforms into a sea of Southern Miss fans.
More than a tailgating spot, the area also offers visitors an opportunity to take a walk in the Rose Garden during the day, to see the illuminated dome at night and to enjoy the Black-Eyed Susans in spring. This historic part of campus is also a tangible reminder of Southern Miss' heritage. It is where one can go to most closely feel the spirit of the University; it is a builder of loyalty and admiration.
