Around East Atlanta Patch we have a lot of UGA grads, no doubt about it.
But we're a lot closer to Georgia State, Emory, Morehouse and Georgia Tech so the Athens mystique isn't necessarily as captivating.
Still, UGA's Michael Adams, one of the longest serving university presidents in the country, announced today that he's retiring next year.
It's garnered a lot of commentary on Twitter.
What do you think will be his legacy in terms of academics, athletics and raising the national profile of UGA?
Thanks. We'll email you the next time we update this story.
