i know what constitutionally protected freedom of speech is. my point is that when all of those private institutions are inextricably intertwined with government personnel, funds, and influence, what’s the difference?

The difference is that Ole Miss is an actual land grant institution established under state law, with benefits flowing to it from the State of Mississippi and the federal government.

Joe Blow newspaper doesn't have state tax revenue dollars and federal revenue dollars flowing to it (other than, possibly, loans from the Department of Commerce that have to be repaid).
