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

This year, elections are being held for the mayor of Atlanta as well as city council positions. SGA hopes to help students go beyond the Tech campus and become active members of the community. SGA has partnered with WSB-TV to host the top five mayoral candidates – Antonio Brown, Andre Dickens, Sharon Gay, Felicia Moore, and Kasim Reed – right on Tech’s campus. The forum will take place at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 2, in the main auditorium of The Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design; it will also be livestreamed here. SGA hopes the event will help students gain insight into a complex race involving 14 total candidates.
