The University of Alabama has had the good fortune of being able to invite a variety of guests, from Aristotle University, to come to Tuscaloosa to visit our campus and share their research with us — for either a stay of a week or, in two different cases, as graduate students employed by the College of Arts & Sciences as an Instructor for a full semester.
Although their visits are discussed elsewhere on this site (See the sub-menus on the Collaborate link above), the following is a chronological list of some of the Greek colleagues (students and faculty) who have visited (or, in the case of the two doctoral students, worked at) the University of Alabama.
