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

Giselle Martin, student recruitment director at the College of Computing, credits the new revised curriculum and ever widening job prospects for a 15 percent increase in undergraduate applications this year. We're placing students in Silicon Valley and all over the United States of course, but also in health care firms in Chile and embassies in Japan, Martin said. This is geek chic. Our students are getting sexy jobs. Source: Inside Higher Ed
