(Oconee Campus celebrates 14,000-square-foot addition)

Dr. Bonita Jacobs: (UNG President) First of all, thank you all for being here and to celebrate with this wonderful new facility. We are extremely proud of the campus here in Oconee. And I know that many of you share that enthusiasm for all that happens on this campus. And we know the success rate of these students. And we pride ourselves on the excellence of our faculty, staff and of our students.

Grace Magrino: (President of Oconee Campus Student Government Association) Speaking on behalf of the students, we're all excited just to have more places to sit. And faculty and staff have more office space. I know I'm excited about the new foreign language lab that's going to be expanded.

Student: I'm really excited about the new wet labs. The science department is really benefitting.

Hank Huckaby: (Chancellor of University System of Georgia) I've been looking forward to this event for about a year, like most of you have. It's a great, I think, example of how we're committed to this campus and to the University of North Georgia.
