About

HISTORY

The site for The Alumni House was selected in 1948 to be a lasting gift to the University from the Ole Miss Alumni Association, marking the centennial of The University of Mississippi’s founding. The official groundbreaking for The Alumni House was Nov. 4, 1949 and was presented to the University on Oct. 20, 1951. Public and private meeting space, private offices and a snack bar were part of the original project, which also included a 35-room hotel. The Alumni House had its first renovation in 1968 adding an outdoor pool and increasing the guest room total to 91.

In the mid-1980s, The Alumni House began to have guest rooms sponsored by individuals. This allowed alumni and friends the first right of refusal for their room during peak demand times, such as home football games and graduation. Most of the room sponsors have created a feeling of home in their rooms and suites. In the original hotel, many sponsors have had their rooms for years. Many are proud to show off family pictures, Ole Miss memorabilia and their own personal style in the décor they have chosen. Each room is a little different from the next, but all are comfortable and well-appointed. The generosity and love for Ole Miss shown by room sponsors allowed the Alumni House to progress.

Ultimately, the demand for room sponsorship and the need for luxury accommodations in Oxford led to the $21 million expansion that was completed in 2008. It was also during this time that The Alumni House was renamed The Inn at Ole Miss. The eight-story all-suite hotel came complete with a new dining area, gift shop and more than 10,000 square feet of meeting space. The newly-expanded The Inn at Ole Miss was dedicated on Aug. 29, 2008.

The success of the room sponsorship program enabled what was once just a small bed and breakfast hotel to become what it is today — a modern, state-of-the-art facility for all of our alumni and friends to use. In a combined effort with the Ole Miss Alumni Association, The Inn at Ole Miss has become one of the greatest additions to the Ole Miss campus in the 21st century.
