Statesboro, Georgia
Statesboro and Georgia Southern enjoy a longstanding cooperative relationship which has worked to their mutual benefit. Their collaboration includes the opening of City Campus, a site enhancing entrepreneurial activity in the community with classrooms and meeting space for business professionals. The Universitys economic and educational influence has helped to give Statesboro some of the highest quality of life in the region. Conversely, Statesboro embraces students with its comfortable blend of small-town friendliness while assuming a life of its own as a regional retail and health care hub. A Main Street community, Statesboros charm, coupled with cultural opportunities, rivals metropolitan areas. The addition of new businesses and activities makes it a unique place to live, work and learn.
