Advice Books
The UGA Alumni Association's book series "If I Only Knew Then..." is one of
the Association's proudest achievements. The first book, "If I Only Knew
Then...Advice from Alumni to the Class of 2005" received the Grand Award
from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE). With each
year's production the book, now titled, "If I Only Knew Then...Advice from
UGA Alumni to New Graduates," continues to grow, thanks to the meaningful
advice and wisdom submitted by UGA alumni. In 2007 the Association added a
new book in the series, "If I Only Knew Then...Advice for the College
Years," which is given to first-year students. The two books not only
provide insightful advice and guidance from those who have been there
before, but also act as networking tools and connect recent graduates and
new students with alumni.
