Building for the Future

On August 20, 2008, the University System of Georgia Board of Regents approved the
ground lease and rental agreement for GGC's new student housing, setting in motion photo of the residence halls construction site
the College's plan to break ground and begin building the first of five planned
residence halls. The College sold $102 million in bonds in March 2009 so that the state-
of-the-art residence halls could be built. The student housing project is a public/private
venture with GGC’s Foundation putting up the initial investment. The Foundation will
be reimbursed through the rental agreements with students.

Phase II of the housing will begin construction as soon as Phase I is sold out. Phase II also will include parking decks with about 2,500 spaces and could open as early as 2011.
