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.

Whittington winners—Birmingham-Southern students who were winners in the college’s sixth annual Whittington Competition will perform with the Red Mountain Chamber Orchestra Feb. 19 at 3 p.m. in the Hill Recital Hall. The orchestra, led by BSC Music Professor Dr. Thomas Gibbs, will accompany (from left), Sirena Wang, a junior music major from Madison; Erin Wakeman, a senior voice major from Mobile; and Jenna Lyle, a junior music major from Carrollton, Ga. Wang will play the first movement of the Piano Concerto in A Minor by Grieg. Wakeman will sing an aria by Puccini. Lyle will sing an aria by the contemporary American composer Thomas Pasatieri. The Whittington Competition is named for Frances and Dorsey Whittington, who were leaders of The Birmingham Conservatory of Music, which later became the Music Department at Birmingham-Southern.
