The Office of Alumni Affairs serves as a liaison between our alumni, the GSW Alumni Association and the university. Our purpose is to provide opportunities for our alumni to reconnect with their alma mater. The Alumni Affairs office is located on the second floor of the Newman Alumni Center on the historical campus of Georgia Southwestern State University. The building, which once served as a former female dormitory and president's house, was lovingly restored under the direction of the GSW Alumni Association and named in honor of Jerry Newman, Class of '59, who graciously contributed to the restoration process.
If you have an idea for a reunion or event, feel free to contact us at alumni@gsw.edu! Send a class note to let us know of personal or professional changes as well as update your address or contact information. Class Notes are printed in GSW's Aeolian magazine.

The impact of alumni engagement through participation in travel, events, and fundraisers translates to increased financial support for student scholarships and success as well as alumni activities which develop and foster friendships and strengthen connection and loyalty to the university.
