About Us

The mission of the Associated Student Body is to serve selflessly and to represent justly the student body, in accordance with The University of Mississippi’s Creed by prioritizing students’ interests and needs above personal ambition and prejudice. ASB is a student organization committed to our role of supporting each and every single student to be prepared for the next season of life by engaging student opinion about the nature of our university and campus and elevating the student voice to campus leadership. The Associated Student Body has three branches – executive, legislative, and judicial. These three branches together provide an advocacy resource for students on campus.

Philanthropy Endeavor

The Associated Student Body (ASB)'s Adopt-a-Basket philanthropic project is a manifestation of our dedication to supporting the Oxford-Lafayette community. The goal of this project is to combat hunger by providing non-perishable food to individuals who are less fortunate. We gather and provide a variety of necessary food products through Adopt-a-Basket, making sure that people and families who are experiencing food insecurity get the assistance they require.
Apart from our food donation endeavors, we also engage in active volunteer work at nearby food banks. Our team members provide their time and effort to support these essential community resources by organizing, distributing, and serving food to individuals who depend on them. We seek to directly contribute to the reduction of hunger and the development of a more robust and resilient community by collaborating with food banks.
More than merely a charity endeavor, the Associated Student Body's Adopt-a-Basket program demonstrates our commitment to the Oxford-Lafayette community's well-being. By working together, we can end hunger and build a better future for everybody.
