| LaFrance, T. Casey, '05 | Casey completed his Ph.D. degree in political science on March 16, 2009, at Northern Illinois University. His dissertation was entitled Stars and Shields: Perceptions of Accountability in the Decision-Making Processes of County Sheriffs and Municipal Police Chiefs. He accepted a faculty position in political science at Western Illinois University, effective August 2009. |
| Levely, Karson G. | Karson has been working as a graduate assistant for Dr. Donna A. Gessell, executive director of regional engagement. Dr. Gessell called Karson one of the greatest resources ever made available to Dr. Gessell. |
| Karson created a new design, compatible with NGCSU's new Web-site design, for the M.P.A. Student Association. The new design supplants the previous 7-year-old version, created by the very talented Nicole Whitley, '02, in 2001 (thanks, Nicole!). The new design has been called "riveting" and "awesome." | |
| Shirley, Rebecca A. "Becca" | As an intern for the City of Dahlonega's Downtown Development Authority, Becca coordinated Dahlonega's Great American Cleanup - Keep America Beautiful Campaign and Dahlonega's Arbor Day celebration. The result of Becca's work included securing for the city recognition as a "Preserve America Community" and a national Tree City, as well as a "Tree City USA Growth Award." |
