The Friendship Oak has watched over the Gulf Coast since the late 1400s. It has seen storms, weddings, students, and countless visitors pause beneath its branches.
Have you ever stood beneath something older than America?
On the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi’s Gulf Park in Long Beach, you can do exactly that. Rising from the front lawn overlooking the Gulf of Mexico is one of Mississippi’s most beloved living landmarks — a sprawling live oak that has quietly watched more than five centuries of Gulf Coast history unfold.

The clarification came as Magnolia Tribune sought a breakdown of the interest income between special funds and the state’s general fund.
The State Treasurer’s office on Tuesday clarified that Mississippi’s “record-breaking $1 billion in interest income in 2025,” as shared in a release Monday, was in fact a cumulative total over Treasurer David McRae’s tenure “up to 2025, not in 2025 alone.”

Nobody really likes tax season. Sure, it can be nice if you get a refund, but even getting to that point can be frustrating – collecting the W-2's and 1099s from employers, tracking down paperwork from your bank, finding your passwords for your tax prep software. It isn’t easy. That said, many are hopeful that all the work will pay off a little more this year than it did in year’s past.
