The 1997 UGA Fact Book
has much the same appearance as previous Fact Books, and it is the same reliable
and comprehensive source of official University data. A few significant changes have been
made, however, in order to make the Fact Book an increasingly friendly document:
Simplification of the Table of Contents and the
titles of some pages.
A change in the definition of "Professional"
to include only first-professional at the University as defined by federal reporting
requirements: Doctor of Law (JD), Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD), and Doctor of Veterinary
Medicine (DVM).
Publication of the 1996 and 1997 UGA Fact Books on
the web at: www.uga.edu/irp/
Appreciation is extended to the many individuals across
campus who submit data and to the many individuals within Institutional Research &
Planning who assist with the production of this complex document. I also would like to
acknowledge Debbie Holliday who has prepared all final copy for several years.
We enjoy producing the Fact Book and know that it is
a much used and appreciated document. We welcome your comments and your suggestions.
