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.

Wired for spirit—The Birmingham-Southern cheerleaders and Southern Stars dance team recently attended the three-day Universal Cheer and Dance Association camp at the University of Alabama to learn the latest in formations, cheers, chants, and fight-song routines. The cheerleaders returned with second-place and Most Improved trophies in the camp’s cheer competition, and the Southern Stars all won blue ribbons for their dance routines. Both student groups are preparing to support the new BSC football team this fall and will perform at the college’s men’s and women’s basketball games as well. Shown in the photo above holding their ribbons are Southern Stars (from left) Kendall Hazel, Brittany Gordon, Sarah McCoy, and Ashley Pyron. Below, cheerleaders posing are (back row, from left) Matt Laird and Pete Ridley; (front row, from left) Ricia Thomas, Lindsey Jackson, Amanda Call, Courtney Scott, Ashlyn Rogers, and Erin Bishop.
