Campus Scenes

During a Sept. 14 visit to the Terry College of Business leadership class taught by Pat Pittard, Gov. Sonny Perdue talked to students about trust—how you can build it or lose it. In the political realm, Perdue said leadership is “a balance between vision, perseverance and commitment, always with an open ear to the voters to listen to whether you’re getting it right.” (Photo by Dot Paul)
