English translation: By valor and arms
Latin: Pro scientia et sapientia
English Translation: For knowledge and wisdom
On Wikipedia it says that the motto is "For knowledge and wisdom" but the translation given it says its "By valor and arms"
Virtute et armis is the state motto which was adopted on February 2, 2001, but was originally adopted on February 7, 1894. It was suggested by the lord Gray De Wilson. His original suggestion was Virtute non armis fido ("I trust in virtue not arms"). This is a good motto because it relates to the state of Mississippi but I do now know if it is very good for a school motto. The other motto that I have found for the university is a good motto for school because it talks about knowledge and wisdom. The University of Mississippi has an interesting school motto with by valor and arms because that is something a school is not normal.
