I am referring not only to the turning of the season and the welcoming of cooler temperatures but also to transformations being made at the University of Georgia School of Law. Like any school with a long and distinguished history, Georgia Law has made steady changes and enhancements over its 150 years of existence. owever, I am particularly pleased to announce that this coming year the school’s primary building, Hirsch Hall – Hwhich was dedicated in 1932 and expanded during the 1960s – will see renovations started. The first phase will primarily affect the ground floor and the Sutherland Courtyard, while the second and third phases will consist of a facelift for the remainder of the building’s public spaces. The key goal of these modifications is to create a more productive learning and scholarly atmosphere for our students by constructing additional places that will facilitate faculty/student interaction, provide more locations for small group study, create additional student organization and faculty/staff office space as well as generally spruce up areas that basically look the same as they did after the 1967 expansion. We are very excited about these improvements to This coming year the law school’s primary building, Hirsch Hall, will be renovated. Above are renderings of what the Sutherland Courtyard area the school’s physical plant and the enhancements to will look like after the first phase of this project. learning they will afford.

  • Settling Down for the Long Haul: the Black Freedom Movement
    SETTLING DOWN FOR THE LONG HAUL: THE BLACK FREEDOM MOVEMENT IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA, 1945-1995 by JAMES BOWERS WALL (Under the Direction of Cindy Hahamovitch) ABSTRACT “Settling Down for the Long Haul” examines black freedom and white resistance movements in the Black Belt of Southwest Georgia over the course of several decades. The study centers on Albany, one of the most important yet under-examined battlegrounds of the modern African American civil rights movement. By investigating the prolonged and varied campaigns for racial equality before and after the brief involvement of Martin Luther King, Jr., the project sheds new light on how grassroots movements are formed–and persist–after their supposed “climax” has passed.

First, they gathered materials. Second, they created records of the materials that were so gathered. As a part of this process, they developed schemes for organizing information so that it could be retrieved. Third, they physically arranged and preserved the materials. Fourth, they distributed the materials to those who needed them. Robert C. Berring1 Librarians excel at systemization. We are masters of organizing information in ways that enable all users—from the layperson to faculty researchers to future patrons of whom we cannot conceive—to find what they are looking for.
