Welcome to a new era in charitable giving to Ole Miss Athletics. Formerly the UMAA Foundation, the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation will seek to provide a greater experience to its members and increased financial support for Rebel Athletics by using four main components: Simplicity, Philanthropy, Stewardship and Inclusiveness. Our efforts will be focused on two strategic initiatives:

1. Successful completion of the Forward Together campaign through the Vaught Society and Capital Gift Agreements including improvements to the Football Indoor Practice Facility, a new state-of-the-art basketball facility, expansion of the north end zone at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, Gillom Center renovations and completion of a new front door to Ole Miss Athletics. For an update on the campaign and its facility projects, please see page 24-25 of this brochure.

2. Increased support through the annual giving program to allow us to grow our donor base from 6,500 to over 10,000 and the athletics operating budget from $62 million to over $70 million in the near future.

We will be successful through your support both financially and by spreading the word of the plan for the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation. This is the time for us all to step up and realize the potential of Rebel Athletics. As always, we greatly appreciate your support. Your donations and purchase of season tickets give us the opportunity to compete at the highest level. Go Rebels!

A NEW WAY FORWARDThe Ole Miss Athletics Foundation introduces a new model for Rebel fans to show their support for Ole Miss Athletics. This new model is designed to maximize your experience as a member of the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation. Moving forward we will recognize your various different contributions over the course of the year as a single membership to allow us to better steward your overall charitable support of Rebel Athletics and encourage others to make similar commitments.

WHATS NEW FOR 2013-14:

SIMPLICITY: Your annual giving associated with football, basketball, baseball tickets and parking will be sought each spring as a part of a single, membership drive. The Ole Miss Athletics Foundation staff can work with each member to create a multiple payment option that best fits your personal budget.

PHILANTHROPY: The membership model will allow proud Rebels across the country to show their support and give what they can in support of Ole Miss Athletics.

STEWARDSHIP: Many of the new benefits of giving to the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation will be based on your overall giving for the year, and access to football parking will be given to more members than in years past.

INCLUSIVENESS: With memberships starting at just $50, the annual fund provides an opportunity for all fans to support the Ole Miss Rebels.

BRITTANY BROOME SOFTBALLSUWANEE, GA.ELEMENTARY EDUCATIONOne of three seniors on the team this season, Brittany Broome helped guide the Rebels to an eight-win improvement last season, their first under head coach Windy Thees. Broome, a member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, finished ninth in the SEC last season with 20 steals, and led the team with three triples.


NIK SCHOLTz - MENS TENNISCALEDON, SOUTH AFRICAGENERAL STUDIESNik Scholtz became the first Rebel netter to earn SEC Freshman of the Year honors in 2012, helping lead the team to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen for the 16th time and a final national ranking of No. 14. It marked the teams 17th top-15 national finish since 1994. Scholtz was the only freshman to earn All-America honors in both singles and doubles, reached the NCAA Elite Eight in singles and ended the year as the second-highest ranked freshman. Off the court, Scholtz has been named to the UMAA Honor Roll.

YOUR DONATION AT WORKWe encourage all Rebel fans to become Ole Miss Athletics Foundation members. As a member, regardless of membership level, you are contributing to student-athlete excellence at Ole Miss. Support received from Ole Miss Athletics Foundation members is used to provide scholarships, academic counseling, sports medicine, equipment and travel, which are the components of a great student-athlete experience. The Ole Miss Athletics Foundation also provides a competitive edge for Ole Miss by enabling a national reach in recruiting, providing salary support for coaches and allowing the department to properly maintain and modernize facilities.

This year we are asking you to pledge your overall support in advance of the various seating renewal deadlines in order to help us increase support for our student-athletes in their pursuit of championships and their Ole Miss diploma.

While we will still require minimum gifts for certain seating and parking opportunities in football, basketball and baseball, we expect that this new format will make your support of Rebel Athletics easier to manage and understand on an annual basis.

At right, see how members can increase their level of support by making an additional membership contribution. The member makes an additional contribution of $300 to move their membership to the $600 level. As a result, the member moves to the starter level and further helps Rebel student-athletes graduate and compete for championships.

PRIORITY POINTSThe Ole Miss Athletics Foundation utilizes a priority points system to acknowledge your continued support of Ole Miss Athletics.

Priority points are accumulated through the following:

One point for every $100 donated to Athletics at Ole Miss. One point for every season ticket (up to 10 per year) since 1996 for

football, mens basketball, womens basketball and baseball.

Priority point totals are calculated monthly and the most current point totals will be used at each allocation. Points are calculated based on money donated, not pledged.

Priority Points are used to determine the order of allocation for items such as:

Season ticket re-location requests Season parking request Away game ticket requests for football Post-season ticket requests for football, basketball and baseball

Order priority is determined by ranking each member by their point total from highest to lowest.

You can view your priority point total by logging into your online account at GiveToAthletics.com.

FABIA MCDONALD - WOMENS TRACK & FIELDMIDDLETOWN, OHIOSOCIAL WORKA stellar sophomore campaign saw Fabia McDonald earn 2012 Indoor All-America distinction in the pentathlon and honorable mention Outdoor All-America status in the heptathlon. The Middletown, Ohio, native broke her own school record in the indoor pentathlon and was the SEC runner-up in the outdoor heptathlon with a mark that ranks her second in the Ole Miss record books.


AWAY GAME/POST SEASON TICKETS The opportunity to order post-season tickets is a benefit of being an Ole Miss Athletics Foundation member. All away game, championship and bowl tickets will be allocated by priority as follows:

All orders must be received prior to stated priority deadlines.

Order priority is determined by ranking each member by their point total from highest to lowest.

Please see the benefits chart on pages 6-7 for ticket eligibility for away and post-season tickets each level of membership.

If you are requesting to sit with a specific group of people with multiple member accounts, remember that the entire group will be allocated at the lowest individual level of giving within the group. To make a request to sit with a specific group of people, please reference their name and account number on your paper renewal form, or in the comment box if you renew online.

KARA MORGAN VOLLEYBALLPICKENS, S.C.BIOLOGYA co-captain for the Rebels as a junior, Kara Morgan led Ole Miss offensively by recording the third most kills (311) in single-season program history during the rally scoring era (play to 25), and the most service aces (30) for the Rebels in single-season history during the rally scoring era (play to 25). A consistent offensive force, Morgan finished with double-digit kills in a team-high 18 matches.


ANNUAL FUND/MEMBERSHIP FAQWHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT I MAKE MY PLEDGE AND SEND IN AT LEAST 25 PERCENT OF MY CONTRIBUTION BY APRIL 30?Meeting the April 30 deadline for pledges signifies your intent to support the Rebels through a membership in the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation. By indicating your intent to renew your annual fund membership and establishing a donation schedule by April 30, you guarantee retention of your football seating and parking location, provided you meet the minimum contribution level for the seating and parking and renew your tickets on time.

Additionally, having pledges in by April 30 helps the department accurately project revenues, which assists with the budgeting process for the coming athletics year and allows us to provide the resources necessary to compete for championships in the SEC.

WHY IS MY TOTAL GIFT DUE BY DECEMBER 1?Completing your giving prior to December 31 of a given year allows you to claim all donations when filing personal income taxes for the same year. Many individuals choose to make charitable gifts in December for this reason as well.

Completing your giving prior to year-end allows us to adequately plan and communicate any necessary changes the following spring for the next football season.

You may complete your pledge in full at any time prior to the deadlines. Please consult your tax advisor for more information.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I DONT MAKE MY PLEDGE BY APRIL 30 OR MY TOTAL GIFT BY DECEMBER 1?It is important to meet deadlines established in this membership handbook to ensure that you retain your current seats and parking. If you miss these deadlines your seats and parking will be made available to other members. This is critical to ensuring fair treatment for all members and season ticket holders and giving those who meet each deadline the opportunity to improve their seats and/or parking.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES TO MAKING 100% OF MY GIFT BY APRIL 30?Priority points are calculated and are credited only as dollars are received. Completing your gift by April 30 means that you will get priority point credit for the entire amount of the gift which could improve your seats


and or parking. Points will be calculated monthly and those totals will be used for allocation of season, post-season and away game seating and parking using the most recent point total calculation.

CAN I PAY MY ANNUAL FUND GIFT IN INSTALLMENTS?You may pay your pledge over multiple payments on your credit card by providing payment information with your renewal. We will work to accommodate your request in regards to your donation schedules.

CAN I BECOME AN ANNUAL FUND MEMBER IF I DONT HAVE SEASON TICKETS?The annual fund is every Rebel fans opportunity to show their support for Ole Miss Athletics. Being an annual fund member, at any level, helps the department to achieve the vision of being a model intercollegiate athletics program. Annual fund memberships are the lifeblood of Ole Miss Athletics. Those dollars allow the department to provide a world-class student-athlete experience, maintain and provide ongoing facility upgrades, attract and retain great coaches and enable a national recruiting reach.

HOW DO I QUALIFY FOR A DONOR PARKING PASS?You must make the required donation for the lot you desire. Members who are renewing the same parking will be auto allocated first, as long as the required donations have been made prior to the deadline. Parking will be allocated based on priority and availability.

HOW DO I RETAIN A PARKING PASS FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR?To retain your previous years parking pass(es), simply make your pledge and donation or donation schedule by the April 30th deadline. Your pledge form will list any parking held for the previous year. If you wish to change the location of a parking pass, please see the next question.

HOW DO I RELOCATE A PARKING PASS?All parking requests must be made in writing to the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation to be considered for a specific lot assignment. Make the request on your donation renewal form or in the space provided if you renew your donation online. Please be specific in your parking request.

JARVIS SUMMERS MENS BASKETBALLJACKSON, MISS.LIBERAL ARTSJarvis Summers started 30 games for the Rebels at point guard last season and helped Ole Miss advance to the postseason for the fifth time in the last six years. He averaged 10.4 points, 2.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 29.1 minutes last year and led all SEC freshmen in 3-point percentage (43.6). He ranked ninth among SEC players in assists and was named the 2012 Rebels Choice Award for Mens Rookie of the Year.


BASEBALL SEASON TICKETSThere is no better atmosphere in college baseball than that found at Ole Miss. The tradition of success and fan support makes Swayze Field the place to be in the spring.

New for 2014: baseball priority seating contributions and ticket costs will be separated for all season ticket options beginning in 2014.

For questions on ordering season tickets, please see the Season Ticket FAQ on pages 20-21 or call the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation staff at 662-915-7159.

BASEBALL PARKINGParking is a benefit to donors that contribute at least $300 annually to the baseball priority seating fund. All parking allocations are handled by the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation. All parking lots were full for the 2013 baseball season. Open spaces will be filled by priority. New qualifying donors are not guaranteed parking. See the parking map below for lot locations.

BOBBY WAHL - BASEBALLSPRINGFIELD, VA.CRIMINAL JUSTICEBobby Wahl earned All-SEC honors and helped the Rebels advance to a 10th NCAA Tournament in the Mike Bianco era as the Rebels played for a Regional Championship for the sixth time in the last eight seasons in 2012. Wahl then went on to compete internationally with USA Baseball as the seventh Rebel to compete in international baseball with the US National Team in the last decade.


SEASON TICKET FAQWHEN WILL THE PRIORITY SEATING CONTRIBUTIONS BE DUE?One quarter (25%) of all annual contributions related to Priority Seating are due on April 30 with the full balance due on December 1 of each year. The Ole Miss Athletics Foundation staff is available to personally assist you with completing your contribution form or a donation schedule if you would like to make donations over the course of the year. CAN I KEEP OR IMPROVE MY SEATS EACH YEAR?Ole Miss Athletics Foundation members who make the per-seat minimum contribution and meet the appropriate deadlines will have the first opportunity to renew their seats each year. During the renewal process, Ole Miss Athletics Foundation members will also have the opportunity to request a change in their seating. Requests for changes in football seating will be reviewed in order of Priority Point ranking once the allocation process begins.

HOW DO I REQUEST AN IMPROVEMENT OR CHANGE IN MY SEATING OR PARKING ASSIGNMENT?Seating and parking requests should be submitted with your season ticket renewal. Please write your request in the space

provided on your renewal form and return it to the Ole Miss Athletics Ticket Office by the deadline indicated on your renewal.

DO THE CONTRIBUTIONS I MAKE FOR FOOTBALL SEATS AND PARKING COUNT FOR MY BASKETBALL SEATS AND PARKING TOO?Football, basketball and baseball priority seating require separate contributions. The best parking for football, mens basketball and baseball also require that you meet the minimum contribution for each sport.

DO MY FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL AND BASEBALL CONTRIBUTIONS IMPROVE MY PRIORITY POINTS?Yes, members earn 1 point for every $100 donated to the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation. This total accumulates over time so that your lifetime of giving to athletics at Ole Miss is factored into your priority point total.


DOES MY ANNUAL FUND MEMBERSHIP CONTRIBUTION INCLUDE THE COST OF SEASON TICKETS?The cost of season tickets is not included in the required per-seat contributions. Season tickets are purchased separately through the Ole Miss Athletics Ticket Office. The only exception to this is those baseball season ticket holders who participated in the PSL program. Those PSL agreements will be honored as originally stated. DO I HAVE TO BE AN OLE MISS ATHLETICS FOUNDATION MEMBER TO PURCHASE SEASON TICKETS?It is not required that you join the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation in order to purchase season tickets as there are many areas of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, Tad Smith Coliseum and Swayze Field that do not require a per seat contribution. However, we encourage all Rebel fans to become Ole Miss Athletics Foundation members.

HOW DO I RENEW SEASON TICKETS?To renew your season tickets, simply make the required annual donation and season ticket payment by the deadline established in your season ticket renewal packet. Note that season ticket applications are mailed separately from the Athletics Ticket Office.

HOW DO I RELOCATE, PURCHASE NEW OR ADDITIONAL SEASON TICKETS?To change your season ticket allotment from the previous year, make the specific request on your ticket renewal form, or in the comments box if you renew online. While giving more than the minimum required donation per seat increases your priority to receive your request, an increase in your contribution alone DOES NOT signify a request to move.

Additionally, there are no guarantees for any seating requests. All requests are filled based on availability and priority.

There is no way to know exactly what donation amount is needed to obtain a specific location. It is not possible to bump a renewing member out of his or her seats. All new seating is dependent upon what seats are not renewed and where the members priority ranks them on the allocation list.

WALK OF CHAMPIONSThe Grove and Ole Miss produce one of the most unique college football experiences in the South and nationwide. The Sporting News ranked it among college footballs greatest traditions and described The Grove as the Holy Grail of tailgating sites. In listing Americas top sports colleges, Sports Illustrated named Ole Miss the nations No. 1 tailgating school.

M-CLUBActive members of the M-Club (former Ole Miss letterwinners) giving a minimum of $100, will receive a $1,000 credit on their Ole Miss Athletics Foundation membership. This credit can be applied toward one of the priority seating funds (football, basketball, or baseball), and used only once during the fiscal year. The M-Club credit cannot be applied towards premium seating donation requirements.

We give to help strengthen the University that gave us our start. The Ole Miss that we attended years ago provides great memories, but the Ole Miss I see today is stronger, more diverse and provides a bright future for all who attend as we see our gifts at work.

Ole Miss is a huge part of my life. Having the opportunity to play football and get my degree from Ole Miss helped shape me into the man I am today. I am very thankful for my experiences and the people I came in contact with there. I could not have done it without the support of Rebels everywhere. I encourage everyone to do their part to take Ole Miss to the next level. Hotty Toddy!

YOUR DONATION AT WORKThe past year has seen great success in competition for Ole Miss Athletics. As we build upon the momentum gained from successes in recruiting, academics and competition, your help is more important than ever. The best athletics programs in the country all have one thing in common, enthusiastic support by a loyal fan base who make a commitment to attend home events, purchase season tickets and make financial contributions to help grow the budget and give the coaches and student-athletes the very best resources with which to compete.

Your call to action is to renew and increase your support for the Rebels and encourage others to do the same. Later this year, you will have opportunities to Refer a Rebel and help our staff identify others who can support in the same manner as you. Our goal is to grow our donor base from its current 6,700 to over 10,000 in the next few years. With everyone rallying behind the same vision of academic and athletics success for Ole Miss, we can reach this goal and consistently place Ole Miss among the nations elite.

Join today!!

My love for Ole Miss began when I came to the campus in 1960, and had the wonderful opportunity to work as a student manager for the football team under Coach Vaught. The relationships and experiences I had during my time in Oxford helped shape my life, and in the years since, many of those relationships continue. Each time I step on the campus, after fifty years of being an Ole Miss alum, it is still with great affection and appreciation for my alma mater, for the University remains an indelible part of who I am.
