I rise today to honor Georgia's colleges and universities that have earned national recognition by being named The Princeton Review's ``Best 391 Colleges.'' Seven institutions in our State received this distinction, each offering students a unique and powerful educational experience. At Agnes Scott College, the innovative SUMMIT curriculum equips students to lead with purpose, while Berry College is recognized for its strong culture of mentoring and personal growth. Emory University stands out for its world-class research, and Georgia Tech continues to be known for innovation and hands-on learning. Mercer University was highlighted for outstanding study-abroad opportunities that connect students to the global community, while Spelman College carries forward its proud tradition of shaping generations of Black women leaders. The University of Georgia, our flagship institution, was praised for its wide range of programs, the Double Dawgs initiative, and its highly regarded honors program. Together, these schools exemplify Georgia's commitment to academic excellence, opportunity, and innovation.
