Welcome to the start of a new academic year at the University of Georgia, the birthplace of public higher education in America!

Through our mission of teaching, research, and service, we are making a positive impact across this state, throughout the nation, and around the world. Indeed, what we do here every day matters, and it would not be possible without your hard work and commitment to excellence.

I look forward to all that we will accomplish together in the year ahead.
