Lyceum, Academic building in Oxford, Mississippi.
The Lyceum serves as the central administrative building at the University of Mississippi, featuring white columns and a symmetrical neoclassical structure design.
Construction of the Lyceum began in 1846 as the first building on the University of Mississippi campus, marking the institution's foundational establishment.
The Lyceum bears witness to Mississippi's educational development, standing through significant civil rights events and continuing to function as an administrative center.
The Lyceum houses the chancellor's office and other administrative departments, with visitor parking available in nearby designated areas on campus.
The building survived the Civil War when many campus structures served as a hospital for both Union and Confederate soldiers between 1862 and 1865.
