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

Recognizing the accelerating pace of change in higher education, Georgia Tech’s Office of the Provost formed the Commission on Creating the Next in Education (CNE) and charged it with thinking boldly and broadly about the ways in which the Institution, poised to enter the second half of the 21st century, can be an even more effective innovator in education.
Composed of nearly 70 faculty members, students, staff, and a board of external advisors, CNE has a broad charter to inquire into all aspects of the Institute that might impact Georgia Tech’s ability to prosper in a changed educational world.
This fall, the commission released it's first report "Discovering the Drivers of Change in Higher Education."
Join us at the town hall to hear about the findings of the report and help generate ideas for the next phase of the CNE's work!
