Forward, Ever: Birmingham-Southern College at its Sesquicentennial

Birmingham-Southern College is turning 150. During the 2005-06 academic year, the Hilltop will salute yesterday, celebrate today, and plan for tomorrow during its yearlong Sesquicentennial Celebration.

In anticipation of the celebration of this historic time in the life of Birmingham-Southern, the college has published Forward, Ever: Birmingham-Southern College at its Sesquicentennial, a commemorative history written by Donald A. Brown, a 1958 Hilltop graduate and an award-winning career journalist. The title Forward, Ever comes from the college’s alma mater.

Forward, Ever portrays the past 149 years of the college and glances into the future, using every journalistic style plus three other elements that breathe life into the stories: names, faces, and voices. Students, scholars, student-athletes, faculty, staff, presidents, trustees, alumni, friends, and others step forward. Each of their stories, richly enhanced visually, weaves itself permanently into the fabric of this distinguished institution.

Forward, Ever features:
