Betrayed BSC will offer an illuminating in-depth look into the wide-ranging mechanics of Birmingham-Southern College’s regrettable closure.

Placing BSC’s closing in the national context of the rapidly vanishing liberal arts education, this work provides a historical mapping, overview, and analysis of the various events, factors, and decisions involved in the decline and eventual demise of The College.

Alma mater strong,

Hold our faithful hearts and minds,

As we sing this song.”
