Season 1, Episode 1 - Latin in the Motto

From Marion to East Lake to Homewood through such disasters as fire, low enrollment, and a startling amount of mud, Howard College grew slowly into Samford University. Now, on its 175th anniversary, we look back at Samford's past through the lens of its motto: "Deo Doctrinae Aeternitati".

The music in this episode was made and written by Samford student Kerry Joiner. The clip of the tent revival was from the Free Music Archive and featured Rev. Madison Clinton Peters and the Edison Mixed Quartet.
