Scheduling Tips and Reminders

Helpful Hints • Give yourself time for meals, studying, work, and travel between classes.• Look at where classes are located to make sure you give yourself enough time to

get to your next class. • Be careful if you are trying to schedule all of your classes for 1 or 2 days a week.

You may only have to go to class a day or two a week, but homework and test dates could easily overlap. � is could result in burnout and trigger stress.

• Don’t rule out classes that meet early in the morning. Avoiding morning classes may cause you to prolong taking required/necessary classes for your major.

CAMPUS KNOWLEDGE

With a rich history and passionate W family, traditions have developed since the inception of Mississippi University for Women. While many traditions can be experienced by individual students at any time, some traditions are organized at specific times each year.

Many year ago, two twin ginkgo trees were planted at MUW and its sister institution. Legend has it that if a ginkgo leaf falls from each tree, at the same time, and lands on someone’s shoulder at both institutions, they are destined to fall in love and live happily ever after.

Legend has it if anyone walked forward through this north campus gate, they would become an old maid unless they kissed the large rock, affectionately known as the “kissing rock,” behind the gate.

During the Civil War, Callaway Hall was used as a hospital. A nurse named Mary Callaway nursed a wounded soldier back to health, and they fell in love. When he went back to war, he promised he would come back for her, but he never did. Mary’s life came to a tragic end when she took her life in the clock tower. She is still rumored to haunt Callaway to this day.

Historians have proven that this folk tale could not possibly be true. Callaway Hall’s famous clock tower was not built until after the Civil War, and Mary Callaway was a teacher and dorm mother during the first years of the II&C.

Brave, superstitious students throw pennies at the owl perched on the top of Orr Chapel on the eve of big exams for good luck.

As the largest student organization fundraiser of the year, this event merges the campus and community as student groups provide carnival-style games, food, and entertainment to participants and their family members at the gazebo on Bryan Green. Entertainment through costume contests, live performances, and novelties are also staples of the event.
