Q Research General #22311: We Share ONE Heart, ONE Home, and ONE Glorious Destiny Edition
>>18202022 (me) Moar on Colleges and Foreign donations. Looks like Georgia State might be in the spotlight. From the Dept. of Ed. Office of the General Counsel letter to Georgia State's President Mark Becker in 2021:
"GSU is one of the nation's leading research institutions, classified as a "Carnegie Research-1" or "R-1" institution and ranked 108th in the nation by total R&D expenditure according to data reported by the National Science Foundation. The NSF reported GSU's 2017 R&D expenditures at $200,000,000. Carnegie R-1 institutions conduct the bulk of U.S. academic research and are collectively entrusted with billions in taxpayer funds each year. They also tend to collaborate closely with foreign sources, accounting for over eighty-five percent of all funds reported to the Department. GSU's self-described engagement with foreign sources includes the Office of International Initiatives and support from a rich set of resources relating to developing international agreements, handling logistics and securing funding for international work. For example, GSU has many International Centers and Institutes; a tool called PantherGlobal lists GSU's international institutional relationships; and the Office of International Initiatives has a Strategic Plan. Also, GSU supposedly has over 100 international agreements with over twenty partners in China and more than ten each in South Korea, France, Turkey and Taiwan, although the details of these international agreements are not disclosed.'''
However, it appears GSU has never filed a Section 117 report. Given this and GSU's self-described extensive engagement with foreign sources, we are opening a preliminary inquiry, directed by the Department's Office of the General Counsel with support from the Office of Federal Student Aid, regarding GSU's Section 117 violations, if any.

RESIGNATION

Georgia State University's president announces departure
(You've probably never heard of it, but it graduates more blacks than any other college in the nation. Constant turmoil was all this guy ever saw - no doubt he'd just had enough of all the shit.)
Georgia State University President Mark Becker announced Tuesday he's leaving the position in June after more than a decade in the job of leading the school, which has grown under his tenure into having the largest enrollment of any university in the state.
Becker said he announced his plans now to give the Georgia Board of Regents ample time to conduct a search for his replacement. Becker, Georgia State's president for the past 12 years, plans to take an educational leave following his presidency to conduct research and write.
Under Becker's presidency, Georgia State completed a consolidation with Georgia Perimeter College, increasing its enrollment to an estimated 54,000 students. The university's ongoing effort to use data analytics to improve student performance constantly draws curious colleagues across the nation. Georgia State, by some accounts, graduates more nonwhite students than any college or university in America.
Becker has also been instrumental in the development of downtown Atlanta, particularly through the acquisition of Turner Field, the former home of the Atlanta Braves. Georgia State converted the venue into its football field and partnered with a private developer to build student housing and businesses nearby.
"Leading Georgia State for more than a decade, starting in the middle of a global financial crisis and concluding with a global pandemic, has been challenging and stimulating," Becker said in an email to students, faculty, employees and supporters. "It has been my most rewarding professional experience. What we have accomplished together over the last decade is reMarkable and exemplifies Georgia State's more than 100-year legacy of adapting to meet the everchanging needs of the city of Atlanta, the state of Georgia and the nation. I have been inspired throughout my presidency by the innovation, culture and indomitable spirit of our community."
Becker recently created a group to explore ways to improve its diversity and inclusion, amid criticism from some faculty that there are not enough nonwhite faculty members and the need for an African Studies Center.
University System of Georgia Chancellor Steve Wrigley praised Becker in a statement.
"His vision transformed the university's physical campus and lifted intercollegiate athletics to new heights. He guided a complex institutional consolidation to a successful outcome and has been a leader off-campus in the city and region. All the while, he provided excellent counsel to me and has become a valued friend," Wrigley said. "While we will organize a national search soon to find the university's next president, I'm grateful for his service to our students and the University System of Georgia. Georgia State has transformed thousands of lives because of Mark's leadership, and we will miss him greatly."
