don’t believe the hype in that movie anymore than you would Mississippi Burning..please

I know the Stocketts well enough.

Kathryn is a yankee now..thru and thru

[ken5050]

Amen to that....GRITS are magnificent specimens of feminin ity...Aussie women are spectaculart..

[KevinDavis]

I should have gone to Ole Miss.

The Big Ben fat ass pic has got to go. It’s offensive to everyone with eyes.

[lonestar]

I lived those days...I know how it was.

[MinorityRepublican]

Now we’re talking. That put a smile on my face. :-)

[AnalogReigns]

I was more or less talking tongue in cheek. We had plenty of good looking girls in college in Penn....BUT there were more in Texas.

Without the liberal feminist culture, which you find more of--and more influential, in the North, women do actually do more for themselves and, I think, have a better attitude in the South--hence they look more attractive.

Don't think it has anything to do with anatomy or strictly looks, but primarily attitude.

Liberals are uglier, period.

If they're doing beautiful campuses, I would nominate Western Oregon University and the University of Puget Sound. Their campuses were immaculately maintained when I visited.

And where is California State University, Northridge? It should have gotten on the list for the simple fact that the Oviatt Library has to be one of the most recognized buildings on Earth. It's most recent major role was as Star Fleet Academy in the Star Trek movie.

[AnalogReigns]

In case you missed this silly thread, it was about beautiful PEOPLE, NOT beautiful campi.

I’m sure there are many (MANY) more beautiful places where colleges exist than flat, hot, humid, places like Miss.

However—being a product of Northern and Southern families, with folks from California—Southern women, taken as a whole, ARE better looking, IMHO.

I attribute that NOT to genetics, but to Red-State values...and the lack of feminist propaganda existent there.

Our secret is out!

Bendy, check this out:

[wardaddy]

it is misleading...it started with a Gannett org which I can’t paste here...their title and then repeated by others...I think it should have said leads SEC or maybe led in the aggregated overall given high placements on several scales

but you are right

[wardaddy]

Those two counties on US 49 between Jackson and Hattiesburg contain cannibals..and my kinfolks

[wardaddy]

I agree...some schools are in prettier locales...like W....Pepperdine is probably pretty too...I think the setting for that school in Bozeman as well...Middlebury in VT and so forth..W&L and VMI on the plateau with House and Camelback mountains in the distance..that little mining school in Gunnison

But I think they meant actual campus...buildings, trees and layout...Ole Miss is old antebellum buildings and huge oaks, elms and whatnot...brick streets and some new buildings too from the big money folks with ties there...Netscape founder, Pillsbury heir etc...

It sits on a hilltop with around 500 acres just guessing and is quite nice

But yes...the setting that some schools sit in are no doubt better panoramas

Oxford has been gentrified so much last 30 years...far different than my day when it was a country town..now it is like a destination ..sadly as usual...liberals and even socialists now run the local government

[wardaddy]

that is a quite a nice picture there...I thank God everyday he took that rib

I grew up going to school in Jackson..public...then Prep...the Ole Miss

Mom was Miss Mississippi USA in 1952..had plenty of good looking women in my family

just figured it was that way everywhere...I had been to Dallas and Atlanta ..no shortage there for sure

then I went to Manhattan to reside a bit...wake up call...8 million folks on that island and pretty women...or at least those who wanted to be pretty...not so common

I did venture outside my MS gene pool to Nashville and got lucky...there's a few here too...Williamson county is like Madsion county MS..blonde women everywhere

to be fair...I have seen northern spots with pretty women...Ohio..around Columbus

anyhow...we are very lucky here

[Hawthorn]

>> two counties on US 49 <<

Don’t forget about Smith County. It’s a little east of 49, but it IS home not only of the world’s most important tobacco-spittin’ contest but also the notorious home of bandits and Tri-Kappa men known as Sullivan’s Hollow!

PS: Hotty Toddy!

[Trailerpark Badass]

I personally would rate the University of Georgia at the top but that is based on only a few visits to Athens.

Sitting in front of Park Hall on a sunny spring afternoon is quite a sight to behold, It's enough to make a young man believe in a kind and benevolent God.

pappy Tom Sullivan is my GreatX4 grandfather or my father’s side and my maternal grandmother who was an Ainsworth/Hopkins from Mize/Taylorsville was married to Boyd Sullivan...Wild Bill’s baby boy.

My mom was born in a log cabin off Hwy 481 just north of Burns...My grandfather paternal..born in Pineville.

My greatX2 grandfather..Thomas Raspberry Byrd..is buried at Old Carr Methodist near Pineville..CSA Vicksburg vet as was his daddy Allen Byrd

yep...I know Smith county...that trial lawyer (Asbestos) who came into some coin...Tullos..has a big book out on the county and names

I still go done there researching a bit and showing my kids...my go this fall when it’s cooler..we need to go to Jackson anyhow for old relatives

My GGrandfather was also named Byrd. He was born April 6 1829 in Athens Township, Clarke County, Georgia. His Father John A Byrd was a professor at Franklin College which is also the University of Georgia.

When my Nephew found this out (he is a Florida grad), his first words were: “you mean Grandpa was a Bulldog”.
