In addition to a top 100 in the nation, Niche also ranked the best colleges by state. Georgia's top 10:
1.Emory University
2.University of Georgia
3.Georgia Institute of Technology
4.Georgia Southern University
5.Berry College
6.Georgia State University
7.Spelman College
8.Savannah College of Art & Design
9.Georgia College & State University
10.Mercer University
But surely the prestigious and glorified Georgia State University is in the top 5? Nope.

More interesting was the #55 ranking for 'best campus' nationwide. Don't know exactly how many college/university campus' (campii? 03-wink ) were in this survey, but I believe it cleans the "gnat-infested, stinky-creek, STD capital of the world" paintbrush our in-state and conference brethren try to use against us. Understand that some of that is just poking fun, but there are a ton of people who just don't get how nice the campus is.

Well the gnat thing has some validity ....... ;-)
maybe app state should hop into this, as they are ranked higher than Ga State academically in Forbes. So I guess App State is really the Princeton of the South, right?

You're right! I almost forgot. GS President, Dr. Brooks Keel, was recently named one of Georgia's most influential people. Thanks!

We probably got a C+ because of our below standard health center, but we're building a brand new state of the art one on campus right now.

This is the smack section man. No need for truths here. A proper response would have been we got a C+ because we cannonball into Eagle Creek(that is the name right?)

Oh right. So what's it like wearing a bullet proof vest to class everyday? And are gangs just kind of like intramurals for y'all?
