Auburn Hospitality & Tourism
When you are on Auburn University’s campus, be sure to visit the iconic Samford Hall, and take a picture in front of the Auburn University sign. Then head to nearby Toomer’s Corner, where students gather regularly to celebrate big athletic wins by rolling — yes, with toilet paper — the famous Auburn Oaks trees. Explore downtown and grab lunch or a cold glass of Toomer’s Drugs’ famous lemonade.
- Around campus you will find the sprawling Donald E. Davis Arboretum has a collection of native plants.
- The Jonathan Bell Lovelace Museum documents the university’s athletics history.
- The Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art has changing exhibits ranging from the 18th–21st centuries, to modernism and contemporary.
