Gallery Update: Mercer University, 2025

According to Google, at the corner of Coleman Avenue and Adams Street, in Macon, is home to Newton Hall — and more specifically, Mercer University Press.1Google is wrong: Mercer University Press isn’t actually on campus — they’re in a separate building nearer downtown. See this University Press Week blog tour post for more.

Mercer University (Newton Entrance), 1400 Coleman Ave.

Mercer one of more than 160 members of the Association of University Presses. I mention this because, a while back, I said regarding taking some photographs around the campus of Mercer University, “stay tuned.” In honor of AUP’s University Press Week, November 10–14, I’ve done just that.

Pi Kappa Phi Bell, Perhaps Overrung, Winship St.
University Center Entrance (from Adams St.)
Hawkins Arena Entrance #2, Adams St.
University Commons, Penfield Hall, Edgewood Ave.
Mercer Softball (Bleachers), Sikes Field
Jack Tarver Library #2, 1501 Mercer University Dr,.

Taken during a number of visits over fifteen years, a total of 100 photographs now populate the Mercer University gallery. Enjoy.
