The Samford University 2019 annual report reflects on the academic accolades and stories of student success from the past year — as well as how we are building for the future.
Deo. Doctrinae. Aeternitati.
These simple, powerful phrases are the foundation on which Samford University has been built for 178 years. For God, For Learning, Forever. Our 2019 annual report reflects the advancement of this distinctive mission throughout our 10 schools and across the campus community.
For God
