    David Magee on CBS Mornings



    The last time David Magee saw his son alive, William told him to write their family’s story in the hopes of helping others. Days later, David found William, an Ole Miss honor graduate and SEC track athlete, dead from an accidental drug overdose.

    David honored his son’s wishes in writing Dear William: A Father’s Memoir of Recovery, Love, and Loss. Hear David discuss how important it is that we understand how and why students like William struggle today

Navigating the culture of college can be tough. As you face new challenges in the classroom, you are also adjusting to new freedoms and responsibilities, forming new relationships, and questioning what your future will be. Know that you are not alone as you travel along this pathway.

The William Magee Center for AOD and Wellness Education is here to support you and your unique needs, whatever they are and whenever they occur while you are at Ole Miss.  We can help you learn to balance the physical, mental, social, spiritual, and intellectual dimensions of your life. We want you to do more than earn a degree. We want you to become a Healthy Rebel for Life.

Our website is currently being revised so check back often to find the most current information of what we have to offer.
