CSSC Graduate Education

Southern Studies 101
Give $101 in honor of the course that Ted Ownby taught to hundreds, maybe thousands, of UM undergraduates. SST 101 is an introductory, interdisciplinary course that examines life in the American South from a variety of perspectives: historical, sociological, political, literary and musical, among others. Your $101 gift will go a long way toward supporting graduate education!
$500
CSSC's Legacy
Since its beginning, more than 500 students have graduated with a B.A., M.A., or M.F.A. in Southern Studies. Ted Ownby has taught, mentored or influenced many of those students. Give to honor his dedication and support the education of hundreds more!

Thousands of Titles
The Center for the Study of Southern Culture's home, Barnard Observatory, is one of the most distinctive and historic buildings on campus. Inside, its shelves hold more than 1,000 books about the South, its history, its people, its politics, its ecology and its future, many of them published by the Center or written by its many faculty, staff and alumni. Ted Ownby produced at least five of the books on the Center's shelves, but he influenced the publication of many, many more. Give a gift that honors his monumental impact on Southern Studies by making a huge impact of your own.
