Image of the original pencil drawing of the Gainesville State College "Campus Gateway," which stands at the entrance to the Hall County, Georgia college. Two perpendicular walls meet at a corner, and a tower rises behind the intersection. Original pencil drawing donated by Gainesville State College alumnus Kevin Burchett, 1996.
Founded in 1964, Gainesville State College is the only publicly supported two-year college in northeast Georgia. Consequently, it has long served as a critical point of access to higher education for both young people and adults residing in the area northeast of Atlanta. A product of the postwar junior-college movement in Georgia, Gainesville State College has worked to enhance educational opportunity for rural and small-town Georgians, citizens for whom postsecondary education had once been unobtainable in their home communities. - Metadata URL:
