Bill > HR349

This resolution honors Georgia Military College (GMC) on its 145th anniversary, recognizing its significant contributions to education in Georgia. Established in 1879, GMC is a unique state educational institution that provides accessible and affordable education, with over 97 percent of its students being Georgia residents. The resolution highlights GMC's distinctive features, including its Preparatory School serving K-12 students, a Junior College where 80 percent of students are first-generation or low-income, and its status as one of only four military junior colleges nationally that can commission United States Army officers through ROTC. The college operates eight satellite locations and a Global Online Leadership College, offering flexible educational opportunities. GMC is particularly noted for its Service Academy Prep Program, which has a 95 percent success rate in helping cadets gain admission to prestigious service academies. The resolution commends GMC for its commitment to duty, honor, and country, and its role in developing servant leaders while expanding educational opportunities across Georgia. The House of Representatives extends its best wishes to the college and directs the House Clerk to distribute an official copy of the resolution to GMC.
