Did we just have Spring Break? 🤔

Ok, I need baseball tickets.
| |
In case you didn’t hear, Ole Miss Baseball is #1 in the country. And has the longest winning streak in program history. And they started a home stand this week. They’ll be at Swayze for a dozen games between now and Mar. 14, and then they’ll be back again from Mar. 19-23. See the full schedule here.
âšľ
How do I get tickets?
Students can buy $5 tickets on Mondays at 8 a.m. before each week of home games. Once you buy a ticket, you’ll be assigned a section in right field. Students will enter at the right field gate and seats will be designated in groups of two or four with social distancing in the student section.
âšľ
But how?
- Go to www.students.olemisstix.com and select “Baseball.” If you’ve bought tickets before, select “Purchased Tickets Before” and log in with your student ID number and password.
- If you haven’t bought baseball tickets before, select “Not Purchased Tickets Before” and set up your account using your student ID number.
- Select “Find tickets” next to the game you want and check out. You’ll get an email with your mobile tickets that can be added to your Apple Wallet or Google Pay. Student tickets can be transferred but not resold.

Does Ole Miss Baseball have TikTok?

📞“Hey! It’s your New Year’s resolutions just calling to check in…” 📞

2021 was supposed to be going smoothly, does anyone know what’s going on? Anyways, in case you forgot, you go to a school with an award-winning recreation facility and you have access to it every day! Seriously, the South Campus Recreation Center was recognized for the NIRSA 2021 Outstanding Sports Facilities Award. So if those New Year's resolutions aren't going well and you haven’t stopped by this semester, then wyd? Rock climbing walls, basketball courts, functional training turf, walking track, group exercise sessions, the options are limitless. Register for a workout session, grab your friends and start an intramural team or browse around and see what Campus Recreation has to offer.

Students are invited to take a survey about whether they’d be interested in getting the vaccine when UM gets doses on campus. The survey will help the university know how many vaccines to prepare for.
The vaccine isn’t on campus yet. UM will make sure you know it if students are eligible to receive vaccines on campus this semester. Until then, stay safe and get vaccinated elsewhere if you’re eligible. If you have vaccine questions, visit this page or email c19@olemiss.edu.
