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
*********************************
The symposium is open to all GT students and will be presented in a hybrid format with in-person participants and synchronous live-streaming from the Ferst Center for the Arts. Students can register for some or all of the sessions by claiming tickets for in-person sessions or streaming. Sessions will focus on leadership lessons and will feature conversations with leaders that include GT alumni who have made considerable impact as local, regional and state leaders. Each leader will be interviewed by a current GT student.
