ANOTHER VIEW: Langdale was key to success of Georgia State University

By Hoyt Tuggle

BUFORD, Ga.  |  As a former Georgia State University (GSU) student, I have many memories of my time there as a night student. I enrolled in Georgia State in 1968, eight years out of high school. I was married, had two children, two jobs, and wanted the college education I had earlier foregone.

BRACK: Noah Langdale was key figure in Georgia State’s latter growth

If George Sparks shepherded Georgia State University in its middle years, the major figure propelling the university into the future was no doubt Noah Langdale. He was president from 1957 until 1988, seeing it grow from two buildings with $1.9 million budget and 5,200 students, and offering one degree, to 22,000 students and 20 buildings, a budget of $118 million and with 50 degrees in more than 200 fields. Today GSU could soon have more than 50,000 students, as Georgia Perimeter College is to merge with GSU.
