Take the “Are You Ready?” Pledge
The voluntary “Are You Ready?” pledge was initiated and written by University of Mississippi students to unite the university and the LOU community in the fight against COVID-19. By taking this symbolic pledge, we acknowledge that we’re all responsible for taking care of ourselves and each other.
C19 Ambassadors Program
The C19 Ambassadors program invites students, staff and faculty to act as voluntary liaisons to the university community to provide encouragement and information about how to follow safety guidelines. Anyone is invited to share in the responsibility of keeping campus safe, because our safety depends on everyone’s cooperation. For more information about the C19 Ambassadors program, please email vcstudentsffairs@olemiss.edu.
