Bill > SR241

This resolution commends Georgia Military College (GMC) on its 145th anniversary, highlighting its significant contributions to education in Georgia. The resolution emphasizes GMC's unique characteristics, including its status as a state authority that provides accessible and affordable education, with over 97% of its students being Georgia residents. It notes GMC's comprehensive educational approach, which includes a K-12 Preparatory School, a Junior College serving primarily first-generation and low-income students, and eight satellite locations across the state. The resolution also recognizes GMC's military heritage, its Corps of Cadets, and its distinctive ROTC program, which is one of only four military junior colleges in the nation capable of commissioning United States Army officers within two years. Additionally, the resolution praises GMC's Global Online Leadership College, its Service Academy Prep Program with a 95% success rate, and its commitment to developing servant leaders. The Senate ultimately resolves to commend GMC for its contributions to Milledgeville, Georgia, and the nation, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute an official copy of the resolution to the college.
