Spreading Christmas cheer—More than 100 members of the Birmingham-Southern community, along with their family members and guests, gathered on campus Dec. 5 for the 8th annual SGA Christmas Party. Faculty, staff, students, and children were among those treated to a traditional Christmas dinner, dessert station with chocolate fountain, gingerbread house and ornament craft making, and horse and buggy rides. In addition, children had their picture taken with Santa Claus, and door prizes were handed out. The evening festivities opened with a dance performance by freshman and Miss BSC 2007 Meredith Ervin of Huntsville. In the photo above, BSC Associate Mathematics Professor Dr. Doug Riley and his daughter, Amanda, decorate ornaments. Below, Santa, portrayed by BSC freshman Daniel Green of Knoxville, Tenn., receives assistance from BSC student elves Michael Seward, a sophomore from Daphne, and junior Leslie Brown of Burrell, Pa.
