Hilltop Photo of the Week
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.

A crisis for practice—In a small room inside the Student Services Building on campus, Birmingham-Southern Police Chief Randy Youngblood (pictured standing) described the unfolding of a disaster—a tanker truck with hazardous material overturning near campus. The scenario Youngblood described hasn't happened yet, but if it ever does, the college's Emergency Response Team wants to be ready. The team gathered June 10 for a tabletop drill to discuss emergency options and take part in a mock emergency exercise. The ERT meets quarterly and includes representatives from campus police, communications, student affairs, administration, information technology, food services, operations, and telecommunications.
