As we prepare to gather together in Atlanta next week, I want to call your attention to several items of interest and opportunity:
We have had an incredible fiscal year highlighted by very impactful programming. Please join me in thanking our Alumni Team who doubled their efforts via virtual formats that allowed us to reach more dawgs in meaningful ways.
Always a Dawg, Brain Dill (AB '94, MBA '19) President of the UGA Alumni Association Board of Directors
If you don’t take anything else away, here are some action items for the week!
Help us celebrate these special dawgs by reaching out with a kind note, text or email. After all, who doesn’t love well wishes? KUDOS AND CONGRATULATIONS Happy Birthday to the wonderful Board members listed below! We wish you all the best in the year to come.
