GULF SHORES, Ala. (AP) — The University of South Alabama will soon offer courses in hospitality and tourism in Gulf Shores.

University officials will start holding the classes in January at the Gulf Shores Cultural Center.

University President Tony Waldrop and Gulf Shores Mayor Robert Craft said the partnership will provide opportunities for Baldwin County residents working in the area's tourism industry.
