Title of entry: Georgia Magazine

About this entry: Georgia Magazine is the flagship print publication of the University of Georgia, the largest university in the state and birthplace of public higher education in America. With four issues per year—twice as many as any other UGA magazine—and a distribution of approximately 150,000, Georgia Magazine has the widest circulation of any UGA publication. This makes the magazine a powerful tool in helping the university deliver its messages to constituents. It also means that Georgia Magazine has a greater responsibility in telling its stories as skillfully as possible.

The 150,000 people who receive Georgia Magazine each quarter include alumni, faculty, administrators, parents, donors, state legislators and other constituents. The magazine is also available across campus for free.

The review period of January-December 2023 included a repeat national championship in football, which we commemorated on the cover of the Spring 2023 issue. Other 2023 cover stories include an overview of the history of the Redcoat Band, a visit to Washington, DC, to check in on UGA's immersive student experience there, and the inspirational story of Faith, a young horse from outside Athens whose life was saved by UGA veterinarians.
