It’s surrounded by some of the highest crime ghetto in Birmingham. Anyone who would consider Bham Southern has a better option about 15 minutes away on I-65 called Samford University.

Yep. Limited market for small expensive liberal arts colleges in Birmingham and Samford won.

I suspect Millsaps will die soon for same reason. Belhaven doing fine.

That would explain why Rep. Juandalynn Givan (D-Birmingham) proposed taking over the campus and turning it into housing and community centers.

It’s a beautiful campus, that seems a waste.
