For more information, please contact [email protected]. 2009 - 2010 FACT BOOK http://services.georgiasouthern.edu/osra/factbook.htm On the Cover The Center for Art & Theatre at Georgia Southern University opened on February 29, 2008 and includes three art galleries featuring exhibitions of contemporary art by both artists of note and emerging student artists, as well as a prized permanent collection. The Center is also home to a unique Black Box Theatre with seating for up to 150 people. An adjoining outdoor sculpture garden, the first on the Georgia Southern University campus, provides a fourth exhibition space for sculptural works of art. Guests entering the galleries and theatre are first greeted by a public sculpture, “Ascend,” commissioned by Betty Foy Sanders, wife of former Georgia Governor Carl E. Sanders, and created by artist Marc Moulton. “Ascend” represents the intellectual and spiritual enlightenment the arts bring to our civilization, and is the newest acquisition to the Georgia Artists Collection, a gift to the University that has been curated by Betty Foy Sanders since 1967 and is on permanent display at the Center. The Center’s Black Box Theatre, the first experimental theatre in the region, was designed so the audience intimately experiences the writing, staging, costumes and of course, acting, of a production. The Theatre’s ample space and flexible staging options make it a dynamic and unparalleled venue for original performances, film, and dance. For information on current exhibitions, directions, hours of operation, contact the Center for Art & Theatre at 912-GSU-ARTS. To purchase tickets for a production, please contact the Theatre’s Box Office at 912-478-5379.

This publication has been designed to provide you with an overview of the University’s progress during the past academic year. During the 2009-2010 academic year, Georgia Southern continued to see record increases in student interest, applications, and enrollment.

Georgia Southern’s freshman class once again achieved an average SAT score of more than 1100 and the University once again recorded an all-time record student retention rate of 82%. In addition, the University’s graduate population continued to grow reaching a new all-time high enrollment as well. Georgia Southern continues to earn accolades for its achievements including being recognized by U.S. News & World Report, Princeton Review, and Forbes. I am particularly pleased that the University has once again been named one of the Top 100 Best Values among Public Colleges and Universities by Kiplinger’s Personal Finance. Georgia Southern is not only providing an outstanding student-centered education, but is now being recognized nationally for its efforts. I would like to thank the many individuals and departments at the University for their contributions to the Fact Book. Their efforts continue to make publishing this critical information possible.

  • E Ects of Georgia's University System Consolidations
    Better Outcomes Without Increased Costs? Eects of Georgia's University System Consolidations Lauren Russell∗ November 28, 2018 Abstract Declining state appropriations for higher education have prompted consolidations within nu- merous public university systems. Using administrative data from the University System of Georgia, I investigate the eects of recent consolidations on educational quality and eciency. Comparing cohorts matriculating after consolidations to similar cohorts at non-consolidated insti- tutions reveals that consolidation increases retention rates and the fraction of students graduating on-time with four-year degrees. Spending data and conversations with USG administrators sug- gest that increased spending on academic support (advising), made possible by economies of scale in student services, are likely responsible for the gains. JEL Codes: H4, I23, L3. Keywords: higher education consolidation, college mergers, higher education nance. ∗The Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and the Social Sciences, Dartmouth College, 6082 Rockefeller Hall, Hanover, NH, 03755. Phone: 603-646-1291. Email: [email protected].
