Georgia Southern School of Human Ecology

Exciting news! Our Interior Design program has a new name starting next Fall: Interior Architecture and Design. The new name better signifies to the public the breadth of knowledge and skills our students gain, as well as the wide array of Master's degree and career path options open to them after graduation.

One of our HDFS students is hosting a Halloween Costume fundraiser benefitting Make-A-Wish Georgia and I want to invite everyone to join in.


How to Participate:

Dress Up: Put on your best Halloween costume—whether it’s for you, your pet, or your family!
Snap a Photo: Capture a fun picture of your costume.
Send It In: Submit your photo to [email protected] by November 6th.


How to win!

Encourage your friends, family, and colleagues to vote on the website by supporting your costume. Every dollar raised equals 1 vote (i.e., a $5 donation equals 5 votes; a $100 donation equals 100 votes). Voting ends November 15th, and the costume with the most votes (most money raised) wins a spooktacular surprise!

Dr. Alice Hall was able to meet up with some former students at the Georgia Afterschool and Youth Development Initiative Convention in Columbus, Ga. Great to see our alumni flourishing.
