International Education Week

Exhibit: November 2005

Samford University Library hosts Photographs in celebration of International Education Week.

The photographs are showcased on the main entry level around the grand staircase.


This is the 3rd year we have had a contest of photos made by students while studying or traveling abroad. The library has displayed these photos each year as a part of the campus-wide observance of International Education Week.

Prize winner Brian Cook writes: "Both the Kenya and the London Study Abroad opportunities were the most amazing experiences of my life. I now have a greater interest and knowledge of life with a global perspective."

Jeremy Brannan: "Samford University's Study Abroad programs have taken me to 5 continents and exposed me to things I never thought I would see...to experience things some only dream of."
