Samford University broke ground Feb. 14 for the Hazel P. Boren Courtyard and Gardens to be constructed adjacent to the new Jane Hollock Brock Recital Hall.
The project is a gift to Samford from Russell and Hazel Boren of Birmingham. It honors Hazel Boren, a longtime member of the Samford University Auxiliary and its scholarship committee. Russell Boren also established a music scholarship years ago to honor his wife.
The Borens are natives of Blount County.
