Jacqueline Royster, Dean, Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts, wrote an op-ed entitled A new catalyst for global Atlanta in the Atlanta Business Chronicle in June. As she explains, "President Obama’s trip to Africa signals intent to reanimate U.S. relations with the continent. In light of this goal, Atlanta’s star continues to rise as a global vortex in which transportation, business, technology, logistics, research and development, energy and environment, health, education, cultural expression and more form a new leading edge for innovation and global interaction."
