Raymond Phillips, President, Black Alumni Leadership Council

This year, the Black Alumni Leadership Council established the 1961 Club, a special group of donors named for the year of desegregation at the University of Georgia, who together help ensure undergraduate student success through financial support.

“We created the 1961 Club to pay homage to the trailblazing alumni who broke barriers, to engage alumni, and, most importantly, to invest in the success of future Bulldogs.”
