Greeting Lion Nation:

On behalf of the Paine College Student Government Association, I am welcoming every student to Paine College for another great semester. Paine College is a private, four year, co-educational campus that has produced leaders in many fields since 1882, that is 130 years to be exact!

Like many other institutions in Georgia, PC has a rich reputation. Paine College also has a rich historical background and continues to provide excellence in higher education to students of the state of Georgia, United States, and nation’s aboard. Students who come to Paine College speak of PC's commitment to provide its students with a great and rich college experience through various activities, programs, and faculty-student relationships and ratios. In addition, this year sparked Paine College’s growth by showing our new school structure, moving from a school of divisions to the Schools of Arts and Sciences and the School of Professional Studies. Paine College also began to show strength by going forward with the Health Educational Activities Learning Complex (The HEAL) that will not only benefit the Paine College Community, but the entire Central Savannah River Area (CSRA). This will help us in our move to become the premiere liberal arts institution in the region. Furthermore, this semester you all will witness Homecoming, which will be a blast; the theme “Lights, Camera, Action” proves to show how much we LOVE our Paine College.

But to benefit from all that Paine College has to offer, it is imperative that every student get involved in the many clubs, organizations, Greeks life, and/or academic clubs on campus. Also, I am encouraging all students to take advantage of all the services, activities and events that the college also provides to students throughout their academic career. It is SGA’s goal and desire that every student who comes to Paine College should and will have the best college experience. Stay connected to your SGA through twitter by following us @PaineCollegeSGA, by e-mail at sga@paine.edu, or by phone at 706-821-8213. We are always happy to hear from the students of Paine College.

I wish everyone the best of luck this semester; I know this will be a fun one for you. Go LIONS!!

Best regards,

Jabal M. Moss
