There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Karen Handel is the former Georgia Secretary of State. In 2011, she was appointed Senior Vice President of Public Policy at Susan G. Komen for the Cure, a leading charity in the cause of fighting breast cancer. She resigned on Feb. 7, 2012, following the foundation's controversial decisions to end, and then restore, funding for Planned Parenthood.
On Thursday, Nov. 29, Karen Handel will speak about her time spent at Komen and the controversy surrounding Planned Parenthood.
This event is sponsored by the Students for Life at Georgia Tech.
