History/Mission/Purpose

The mission of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College (SMBHC) is to attract a diverse body of high-performing students to The University of Mississippi and provide them a vibrant center of academic excellence to help them become outstanding in their fields and citizen-scholars of their communities and the world. Founded in 1997 through a gift from Jim and Sally Barksdale, the Honors College is designed for highly motivated students who thrive in small classes and seminars that emphasize reading, writing, and discussion.

The policies and regulations contained in this online University of Mississippi Catalog are in effect for the current or selected semester. The catalog is not a contract, but rather a guide for the convenience of students. The University of Mississippi reserves the right to 1) change or withdraw courses; 2) change the fees, rules, and schedules for admission, registration, instruction, and graduation; and 3) change other regulations affecting the student body at any time. Implicit in each student’s enrollment with the university is an agreement to comply with university rules and regulations, which the university may modify to exercise properly its educational responsibility.
