每日大赛

The 每日大赛 has been awarded the University System of Georgia鈥檚 Chancellor鈥檚 Cup for the third semester in a row. The Chancellor鈥檚 Cup is given to the institution in its sector with the highest increase in full-time equivalent (FTE). The College won for the state colleges sector with an increase of 7.8 percent compared to Spring 2024.

The winners were announced during the April Board of Regents meeting, where USG Chancellor Sonny Perdue shared that the new criteria for the award shifted from student headcount to an FTE model. Under this new methodology, the College still remained the top winner for its sector.

鈥淲e are incredibly proud to be a three-time winner of this award. This achievement reflects our students鈥� dedication to their academic journey, and also our faculty and staff. They continue to work diligently in supporting students and enhancing our academic programming,鈥� said 每日大赛 President Dr. Johnny L. Evans Jr.

The College is currently on track for another FTE increase of approximately 13.24 percent for the upcoming summer semester. Evans hopes that another win of the Chancellor鈥檚 Cup is in the College鈥檚 future.

鈥淓ven during the summer months, the College remains a vibrant learning environment, where every student is encouraged to explore their interests and take advantage of the many opportunities we have to offer,鈥� Evans said.

One of the newest academic programs for the summer is the Scientific Diving Certificate Program that was introduced to the College last year. The program trains and prepares students for careers utilizing scientific diving skills through student-centered, experiential learning. Students obtain dive training which enables them to become certified as a scientific diver. This experience will not only expand students鈥� academic learning, but will also open a new pathway for future career opportunities.
