Emilia Sola Gracia

The McNair program helped me become the educator I am today. When I was struggling, this program was there to help me develop my foundations and goals. They helped me develop the skills necessary to be successful in graduate school and find my confidence. I was able to develop better time management skills and better explore my research interests.

Thanks to this program I gained the confidence to apply to an on-campus lab to help feed naked mole rates, an experience I will never forget. My McNair program also became my safety net, by helping me with my grad school applications and encouragement to help me apply to the GRFP. My McNair mentors also became my cheerleaders and helped me celebrate my victories, I am forever grateful.

Our Commitment To Our Students, Faculty, And Staff

At the University of North Georgia, we deeply value and uphold the cherished right of every American to freely express themselves. It is a hallmark of our history, our tradition, and permeates our culture. As a distinguished Senior Military College, with a legacy spanning over 150 years, we take great pride in our role of cultivating leaders who tirelessly defend these fundamental freedoms for all citizens. The legacy of our graduates in this regard is second to none.

As campus leaders, our primary responsibility is to cultivate an academic environment that ensures this exchange of ideas and the safety of our community. Across all five campuses, we are committed to fostering a welcoming atmosphere where individuals feel empowered to freely express themselves and engage in exploration and learning. However, it is essential that these rights are exercised in a manner that upholds our academic mission, preserves the safety of all, and is in accordance with our institutional policies, without unlawful behavior. This means breaking the law, harassment, intimidation, trespassing, violence, and other criminal acts will not be tolerated at the University of North Georgia.

Together, let's uphold the principles of respect, understanding, and civility as we equip our students to walk toward their purpose.

Bold Forward!
