Welcome to the Office of Government and Community Affairs at Georgia State University. As the principal liaison between the university and all elected officials, our office is responsible for overseeing communications and relations between Georgia State and local, state and federal government offices and legislative bodies. Official university governmental contacts are made through our office, giving elected officials one point of contact and one voice for the university.
The Government and Community Affairs Office monitors legislative developments and provides accurate and timely analyses of proposals and the potential positive or negative impact on Georgia State students, faculty, staff or research interests. For this, we depend heavily on the expertise of our faculty and staff.
Please feel free to browse through our website. If you would like to invite an elected official to campus, get involved in the legislative process or ask a question about the university’s involvement in the political process, please contact us.
