Oxford Police posted on Facebook congratulating the Class of 2026, praising graduates for their hard work and urging them to take care of themselves and one another as they celebrate the milestone.
The brief social media message included the phrase “Hotty Toddy,” a chant traditionally associated with the University of Mississippi, and closed with well-wishes for the future. The post used the hashtags #ClassOf2026, #OxfordMS and #OxfordPolice.
The Oxford Police Department is the municipal law enforcement agency that serves Oxford, Mississippi, a city that is home to the University of Mississippi. Local law enforcement agencies frequently use social media to share public safety reminders, recognize community events and communicate directly with residents.
Graduation season typically draws large gatherings and celebratory activity, and messages of congratulations from public agencies can reinforce community ties and safety-minded behavior. Such posts also reflect broader efforts by police departments to engage with residents beyond enforcement duties.
We will provide more information as it becomes available.
