From starting as the social media intern to becoming the owner, Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Georgia alum Erin Wilson wants her diners' experience at The National to be perfect.

Though The National is now one of the Classic City’s most beloved restaurants, it was just a 4-year-old upstart when Wilson started working there. Wilson worked part-time at first, sharing The National’s story on Instagram and setting up its website as a digital home base.

She wants the restaurant to give guests a chance to try something they’ve never had before—and maybe discover a new favorite.

We have WEASELS! 📸

University of Georgia Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources researchers recently located the mammal equivalent of a needle in a haystack: weasels. The new study used a combination of strategic camera placement and detection dogs to monitor the mysterious creatures.

Weasels are extremely difficult to find, so not much is known about their preferred habitats and overall population health in the Southeast. By applying what they learned from this new detection technique in North Georgia to other locations, the researchers confirmed the presence of long-tailed weasels in other parts of the state. They also documented weasels in South Georgia for the first time in 30 years!

Certificate programs at the University of Georgia are like minors, although they are frequently interdisciplinary.

Many certificates focus on emerging disciplines or provide specific skill sets. No matter which college a certificate program is based, it is open to all majors, although some may require prerequisites. Depending on their interests, students can tailor the electives they already need to take to meet the requirements for certain certificates. Since the certificate program launched in 1974, more than 70 certificates are available to undergraduates and over 100 are available to graduate students.

A powerful partnership between UGA's Archway Partnership and Hart County, located in northeast Georgia, led to collaboration between Terry College of Business students and the Hart County Community Theatre. UGA students helped the theatre secure a $500k grant, resulting in a major revitalization of the downtown space. This is just one of the many examples of how UGA is helping to nurture and support Georgia's economy!

From enhanced spaces that foster community and well-being to improvements designed to support student success, recent renovation projects on campus reflect UGA’s longstanding efforts to create more welcoming, functional spaces to learn, connect and thrive.

The Dining, Learning, and Well-being Center, the first-year residence hall Building 2266, and newly renovated Strength & Conditioning 3 space in the Ramsey Student Center all reflect ongoing efforts within UGA Student Affairs to enhance campus spaces to meet students’ changing needs and improve the places where they live, gather and connect.
