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

DEBORAH NASH WILLINGHAM, IE 1978, was the speaker for the Fall Semester 1999 Commencement. Willingham, vice president of Windows Marketing for Microsoft, told graduates they were entering the working world at an "extraordinary time". Recapping her experience at Georgia Tech and telling of her successful career, she urged the new graduates to make the best use of all the skills they acquire at Tech, to continue learning, and to find a balance between their professional and personal lives.
