2021 STUDENT AFFAIRS ANNUAL UPDATE




VICTOR K. WILSON

VICE PRESIDENT FOR STUDENT AFFAIRS

GEORGIA STRONG

In a year that stretched and challenged us all in unexpected ways, Student
Affairs rose to meet the moment again and again. While I am never surprised at
the resiliency and creativity of our team, this year’s accomplishments clearly
highlight all the ways that Student Affairs lived our mission #forthestudents.

As you share in celebrating all these efforts and more in Student Affairs over
the past year, thank you, as ever, for all that you do.  

Even in the most challenging times, we are deeply blessed and proud for such an
exceptional team in Student Affairs and the opportunity to serve the best
students in the world. 

Be well,



Victor K. Wilson 
Vice President for Student Affairs 
University of Georgia
