Biology and psychology double-major Emily Johnson's path to her dental career includes cheering on the Dawgs: From my very first week in Creswell 722, I knew that the four years I spent at this University would be special. Since I enjoy staying busy, I decided to get involved in a number of organizations across campus. The past three years, I have represented UGA by cheering at football, basketball, gymnastics and volleyball sporting events. I…

The bulk of that effort has come through a partnership with…
This is an issue that everyone in higher is following (and if you're not, you should be).  Legislation in California aimed at getting state institutions to award credit for massive open online courses from non-university system providers has been shelved for a year: The bill, SB 520, caused a stir when it was introduced, in March, by State Sen.
