Welcome to Birmingham-Southern's “Hilltop Photo of the Week” web page and archives. Each week at this site, we'll feature a photo that depicts some aspect of life on the Hilltop campus, along with brief information about what is taking place in the Photo of the Week.

The college welcomes submissions to be considered for the Hilltop Photo of the Week. Scanned or digital photos can be e-mailed to the Office of Communications at bwagnon@bsc.edu, or photographic prints may be sent through campus mail to Box 549004. Please limit photo submissions to those that depict some aspect of the BSC experience, and be sure to identify what is taking place in the photo, along with location and people involved.

Remembering a BSC icon—Flowers were placed at the foot of the bust of Elton B. Stephens in the Elton B. Stephens Science Center Feb. 7 to remember the passing of one of Birmingham-Southern College's most generous supporters. Stephens passed away Feb. 5 at the age of 93. A 1932 graduate of Birmingham-Southern, Stephens was the founder in 1944 of EBSCO Industries, which today is a widely diversified sales/marketing and manufacturing company that employs 5,000 people worldwide and is the largest privately owned company in Alabama and one of the top 200 privately owned companies in the nation. Through the years, he supported the college in many ways, including a major contribution and matching gift that helped fund the $25 million, 100,000 square-foot Elton B. Stephens Science Center which opened in 2002. He also was a life member and past chair of the college's Board of Trustees.
