Located in Ventress Hall, one of the oldest buildings on the Ole Miss campus, is striking stained glass window memorializing the University Grays. This unit, made up almost entirely of students, suffered a 100% casualty rate while serving with the Army of Northern Virginia. In 1890, a memorial to the company was sponsored by Delta Gamma sorority & the Alumni Association. The window, created by the Tiffany Glass Company recently underwent a major restoration.
