Rhodes College has caught the eye of lifestyle magazine Southern Living and is featured in “The Most Beautiful College Campuses In The South.” In the article, writer Jennifer Chappell Smith describes Rhodes as a “haven inside the city,” noting its new and original Gothic-style buildings, some of which date back to 1925, and elegant oak trees grown with seedlings from Rhodes' original location in Clarksville, TN.
The Theodore W. and Betty J. Eckels Foundation with support from Rick Eckels ’70 has established the Theodore William Eckels International Art Practicum at Rhodes College. The practicum will provide an art immersion experience internationally for four to five outstanding students majoring in art or art history to work abroad during an eight-week period in the summer months.
Dr. Laura Loth, associate professor of French and Francophone Studies, is once again bringing a French film festival to Rhodes. An annual event for several years, the program has returned to campus under the name Albertine Cinémathèque French Film Festival and will run from Sept. 17-Oct. 9, 2024.
