Happy Holiday Travels USC Alums & Friends!

Grantley Adams Int'l Airport, Barbados
On behalf of USC alumni and friends in Barbados, here's wishing those who are travelling for the holidays safe trips and season's greetings.  Welcome home, Delisle Mayers!  Wishing Norma Greaves, our Barbados PRO and Abingdon librarian, an exciting African Safari!  During her safari Norma will also be visiting at least two of our sister SDA institutions of higher learning in Africa - Helderberg College in South Africa and Babcock University in Nigeria.  The latter institution earlier this year opened the fourth of only five medical schools operated by SDAs around the world.  A sixth medical school is currently in the works for the Philippines.

Please feel free to add your comments and well wishes below as well as any additions to this list of travellers.
