Remember that there's additional parking in the lot at the corner of Samford and College. ABOUT THE FEATURED POET: Lindsay Doukopoulos holds a Ph.D. in cre­ative writ­ing from the University of Southern Mississippi and teaches at Auburn University. She has pub­lished widely in mul­ti­ple gen­res and has been nom­i­nated for Pushcart Prizes for both poetry and fiction. She has a short play pub­lished in Best American Short Plays 2010–2011.
