Since it is homecoming week at UGA, I thought you might enjoy seeing a day in the life of one of our mascots, Hairy Dawg. Enjoy!
About the Blog
Welcome to the UGA Admissions Blog! I am happy to respond to your comments, but I would suggest using the search box in the top right hand corner of the blog first to review past blog entries and topics.
Please do not “post unauthorized commercial solicitations (such as spam)”; “bully, intimidate, or harass any user”; “post content that is hateful or threatening”; or “do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory” on UGA’s Blog Page.
UGA reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove comments that contain commercial solicitations; are factually erroneous/libelous; are wildly off-topic.
Our mailing address is 210 South Jackson Street, Athens, GA 30602-1633, and an email for electronic transcripts (if needed) is [email protected].
