Is Hattiesburg more liberal/cosmopolitan than Oxford?
I consider the Ole Miss students (about what 10,000 out of the total 45,000 county populace) to be fairly uniform (90% greek, all dress the same, etc.), which in my opinion is pretty boring. As a matter of fact, a running joke among a couple of a couple of my friends who work in HR is how similar or identical an interview with an Ole Miss grad is, it is like they are “programmed” to think alike in their 4 years. Just my two cents, depending on your tastes, Knoxville people are more boring and less cosmoplitan compared to New York or even Nashville, but not Oxford, unless you consider wearing khakis, polos and greek letters all the time the pinnacle of that lifestyle.
