Garfield A. McIntyre Jr., Hannah N. Ryninger and Emily C. Wood with their trophies

Congratulations to third-year student Garfield A. McIntyre Jr. for being named the best advocate of the preliminary rounds at the Hicks Thomas LLP Moot Court National Championship. He and his classmates Hannah N. Ryninger and Emily C. Wood represented UGA Law as a team at the tournament and finished as semifinalists. This annual invitation-only tournament is reserved for the top 16 moot court programs from law schools across the country based on performances from the previous academic year. Cole Harper (J.D.'22) served as the alumni coach.

The University of Georgia will delay opening on Thursday, Jan. 23 until 10 a.m. The delayed start will provide campus operations teams with additional time to address isolated slick spots. Even with the delay, we realize that some members of our campus community may face unique challenges for travel depending upon their location. Employees are encouraged to contact their direct supervisors to discuss flexible arrangements in these circumstances; likewise, students should contact their professors.

The University of Georgia continues to monitor the development of the winter storm. UGA will be Closed and on Modified Operations for January 21 and January 22. With the safety and security of our faculty, staff and students foremost in our minds, all in-person classes, campus events and activities will be canceled. Further updates will be sent as they become available
