Homecoming at Ole Miss this weekend felt like coming home, though my only official tie to the state is my son, Gar, who is a student. What a remarkable student body and alumni group! Ten acres of side by side open air tents were most hospitable to friends, strangers and opposing team fans.
What a great tribute to the whole community, that Oxford demonstrated in so many ways, what true Southern Hospitality means. I'm grateful to have experienced graciousness above competitiveness, enthusiastic friends by association, and thousands of genteel, fun-loving Southerners who made me feel at home.
