To stop University of Mississippi students from shouting the racially inflammatory phrase, “The South will rise again,” the song that inspired the chant has to go, UM Chancellor Dan Jones said Tuesday.

The song, “From Dixie With Love,” was silenced by Jones after he asked students to stop the chant. He warned them before last week’s football game that he would ban “From Dixie With Love” if they insisted on continuing their chant. His warning went unheeded by students.
