About College Town Connect
Meet Lisa Howard
As a wife and mom, I understand the opportunity that a college visit can be. While visiting colleges all over the country with our daughter, I saw first-hand how important it was to be together, chatting along the way, learning, exploring, comparing notes, and preparing for the next chapter. During her college hunt involving many campus tours and admission office visits, we gained invaluable insights. She ultimately ended up attending college in New York and I cherish the memory of that college tour adventure!
Closer to home, my ties to the University of Alabama runs deep. With my husband, Kent a former Big Al, and our son a more recent graduate, we have enjoyed a life full of memories, cheering for the Crimson Tide all year long. Tailgating on the quad during football weekends, shopping downtown for University of Alabama swag, or special birthday celebrations at local restaurants is why we are at home in Tuscaloosa.
What Inspired College Town Connect?
Your children’s high school years are full of fun, excitement, and new adventures. As time slips away, it’s common to become emotional yet energized. You and your student are preparing for the next step. It’s time to get out and visit colleges. With the college list in hand, trips are discussed, calendars reviewed, and the planning begins. Often the University of Alabama is a must-see.
College Town Connect is here to help. We are your connection between the Birmingham Shuttlesworth International Airport, the City of Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama. College Town Connect provides concierge services through our online presence and personal conversations to provide unique, seamless and
time-efficient itineraries for your visit. This prepares you and your prospective student for their new home away from home. Often, other individuals and groups visit Tuscaloosa and the surrounding area, too. At College Town Connect we will provide a tailored experience including a private car service back and forth from the airport and a personal concierge for the days needed.
Enjoy the ride,
