My alma mater Alice Lloyd College received major recognition this week. U.S. News & World Report recently named ALC one of the best regional liberal arts colleges in the South. In addition, ALC is the number one Southern college for graduates with the least amount of debt. You can see U.S. News' profile here. WYMT has more here.
I am grateful to God for allowing me to attend Alice Lloyd College. It is indeed "a light unto the mountains."
