Georgia State University is a community that embraces diversity. The campus offers lively debates with many groups and individuals from all different walks of life. The professors here are research driven, but it doesn't always matter as much in the classroom because there are active communities which bring people together to study their topics and the content presented there is always exciting!

Georgia State University is a diverse community of faculty, students, administrators and staff. The values of this university are absolutely stellar: diversity of thought and knowledge, interest in professional development for each student regardless of the field they are in, and a commitment to social justice as an institution. I have taken classes with both thriving humanities departments and diverse STEM disciplines.
