Photo showing an open journal and penCarl V. Patton became president of Georgia State University on July 1,1992. With more than 40,000 students seeking degrees, Georgia State is one of the nation's largest urban research universities.

With his expertise as an academic leader and urban planner, Patton has helped Georgia State develop long range and short term plans for academic and research achievements and campus growth. "We're working," says Patton, "to make Georgia State a fully incorporated downtown presence with students learning, working and living in the downtown community." His basic equation for a great university — outstanding faculty and staff, talented students and high quality modern teaching facilities — is taking shape in the heart of Atlanta, one of the country's most vital cities.
