[edit] "In the South"?

I went to Millsaps, and I had always heard that it was the first college in Mississippi to voluntarily desegregate (Ole Miss, of course, was first to desegregate, but that was under duress). I've never heard, though, that it was the first "in the South" to do so, as our article says. Do we have any documentation for this claim? --Tkynerd 19:30, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

I just found a reference myself on the Millsaps Web site. I've used this for now, but I would prefer independent documentation, so if anyone has any, please come forward! :-) --Tkynerd 19:39, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Student Body officers?

Who cares? I've never seen student body officers listed on a Wiki college page. 68.94.221.48 04:15, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, although not for the reason you gave in your edit summary. The information is not encyclopedic. --Tkynerd 12:21, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kappa Sigma gone?

Is this edit accurate? Has Kappa Sigma left Millsaps? --Tkynerd (talk) 03:02, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

According to the Kappa Sigma web site, it appears so as Millsaps isn't listed as a chapter. - ALLSTAR echo 04:34, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks! I looked at the Millsaps Web site, but couldn't find a convenient list of the fraternities on campus (stupid Web site, IMO), and even if I had, I had no assurance that it was necessarily up to date. Didn't even think of checking the Kappa Sigma site. Thanks again. --Tkynerd (talk) 19:13, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
