Hale Woodruff's Murals from Talladega College
April 23, 2021
Talladegans and friends,
Recently, while driving through several neighborhoods I was awed at the sudden burst of color on trees and plants along the roadside. I found myself thinking that this was the most spectacular spring that I could remember. But I am sure that I felt that way when I observed the emerging blooms while living in Western Michigan, Coastal Virginia, and Northern Florida. Each was spectacular, different, but not better. I was similarly awed by Talladega College springs, framed in blooms of dogwoods and magnolias. Although those trees were there only briefly in the school’s history, I am sure that the campus offered memorable springs to all graduates.
