Blue Key will honor Barnes, Sentell, Willson and Sanford
The UGA chapter of Blue Key Honor Society will recognize a former Georgia governor, a legendary university professor and two of UGA’s leading supporters at the annual Blue Key Awards banquet Oct. 8.

The society will present the 40th annual Blue Key Awards to Roy E. Barnes, who was governor from 1999 to 2003; R. Perry Sentell Jr., who taught law at UGA for 46 years; Jane Seddon Willson, president of Sunnyland Farms in Albany; and Charles S. Sanford Jr., retired chairman and CEO of Bankers Trust.

Barnes will be the featured speaker for the banquet, which will also include presentation of the Blue Key Young Alumnus Award to Andrew DeVooght, an outstanding student leader and athlete at UGA who is now a lawyer in Chicago. Winners of the BellSouth Student Leadership Award, the Richard B. Russell Student Leadership Award and the Tucker Dorsey Memorial Scholarship will also be announced.

The banquet, which is open to the public, will be at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education. Reservations, at $25 per person, can be made by contacting Dorothe Otemann at 583-0698.

Blue Key national honor society was founded in 1924. The UGA chapter, started in 1926 as the second chapter in the nation, presents the Blue Key Award to distinguished citizens who have made major contributions to the state and the university. The award has been given since 1964.
