Values
Community - We believe it is important to participate in experiences that build connections to UAB and foster lasting relationships with our peers, faculty, staff, alumni, partners and sponsors, and the Birmingham community..
Growth - To support the mission of BSC, we believe it is critical to develop into leaders who practice and promote healthy behaviors and wellness, respect ourselves and others, and engage in activities to enhance our leadership skills.
Innovation – While we embrace the special significance of every UAB tradition and hope to keep each one alive, we believe it is also important to create new traditions and enhance current ones to meet the needs of all UAB community members.
