91ÁÔÆæâ€™s Waters College of Health Professions has selected a group of alumni and local health experts to make up the Waters College Advisory Board (WCAB) to support and facilitate the success of the college.Â

Five 91ÁÔÆæ students will open an art exhibit titled “Feels Like a Broken Record: Another Senior Showâ€� on Feb. 28. Here, these students will show off the talents they’ve developed during their time at the University with a variety of styles and stories.

91ÁÔÆæ has been awarded $517,575 to train elementary education literacy tutors who will work in select schools in Chatham and Bulloch counties.

91ÁÔÆæ is partnering with the Association of College and University Educators (ACUE), the leader in student success and equity through quality instruction, on a new national study made possible through a $1.5 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Georgia Southern’s faculty will join more than 1,500 educators nationwide in a study to examine the relationship between evidence-based teaching practices, faculty mindset and student outcomes. In addition, up to 90 Georgia Southern faculty will have the opportunity to earn ACUE’s nationally recognized credential in effective teaching practices. Collectively, this will benefit more than 80,000 students.

When 91ÁÔÆæ student Hannah Whitehead first walked into the new Junior Achievement (JA) Colonial Group Discovery Center, she was in awe as she took in the sight of a small-scale Savannah community before her.

Students in Georgia Southern’s Parker College of Business are ready to get hands-on experience preparing income tax returns while helping community members save money through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, which began on Jan. 31.Â

Eight 91ÁÔÆæ students participated, but only one could be named Miss 91ÁÔÆæ. This year, that honor went to Allie Griffis who won the 74th rendition of the scholarship competition.

Research activities and expenditures at Georgia Southern continue to grow, again validating the University’s classification as a “high research activity� institution, according to two national organizations.

91ÁÔÆæ has been selected to be part of a new mentorship program that is designed to increase the pool of available teachers, especially teachers from a broader and more diverse background.

91ÁÔÆæ scores high in several categories of the U.S. News & World Report 2022 Best Online Program rankings. Georgia Southern is among the nation’s leaders in offering quality education for online students as professors ensure students are ready for the real world.
