#GTGoldout Starting to Gain Ground

6

#GTGoldout recently made its way into the Georgia Tech Alumni Magazine, with the article "Get Your Gold Out" appearing on Page 9 of the most current issue, Vol. 92, No. 2. A good article that highlights the importance of wearing gold at our football games, "Get Your Gold Out" hopes to raise awareness and start a grassroots movement to encourage other Yellow Jacket fans to show up wearing gold every game except for the whiteout game. Whether it be by social media or word of mouth, we fans should play our part in this movement as well, informing as many as possible in the short time before football season starts to persuade our fellow fans to participate in this movement.

Introducing: Georgia Tech School of Music

+

Yes, Georgia Tech has organized its music-related activities under one umbrella. The School of Music offers a Certificate in Fine Arts, a Minor in Music, The Bachelor of Science in Music Technology. This comes after over 125 years of Georgia Tech possessing no music students, despite supporting numerous strong musical groups. This move coincides with the oldest "College of Architecture" in the Deep South being renamed the "College of Design" as it broadens its scope and more deeply incorporates the arts into its historically strong technology-based Arch/Design programs. Reportedly, this has all been 20+ years in the making.

You'll remember that Summers quit the team a few weeks before the end of the 2015 season, although it was never particularly clear why. He has one year of eligibility remaining, which he'll use in his home town of Statesboro. Best of luck to Summers in his final year! We'll see him on the Flats in mid-October.

106

In a bit of an unexpected twist, 5* Demetris Robertson committed to Cal today from the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta. After all signs pointed to uga for several weeks, Georgia Tech fans will be relieved to know that the Jackets will likely not have to play against Robertson during his college career. Throughout the process, Robertson expressed his desire study Civil Engineering, and he committed to the number 1 program in the nation for that course of study. It's hard to get upset at a recruit who sticks to his word like Robertson. We wish Demetris the best of luck!
