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

A new survey reveals that college students — the vast majority of them in Generation Z (born after 1996) — are casting their decision in the 2020 elections partly based on how each candidate handles racial and ethnic inequality as well as the coronavirus pandemic. Georgia Tech student Claudia Gomez, 19, arrives at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds to cast her first ballot on October 24, 2020, in Lawrenceville, Georgia.
