Brooks A. Keel (BS ’78, PhD ’82)
It goes without saying that 2020 has been a year unlike any other.
We have all faced challenges we never could have imagined and found ourselves in situations that have tried our will and tested our resolve, yet through it all, I’m proud to say Augusta University has remained committed to our No. 1 priority: our patients and our students.
As challenging as these circumstances have been, however, they have given us an opportunity to demonstrate the full scope of our alma mater’s value at a time when our community desperately needed it.
Probably the most obvious example lies in the role we’ve played with COVID-19 testing. Not only did we develop an in-house COVID-19 test and receive emergency authorization approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp turned to us to take our testing process statewide in conjunction with the Department of Health and the National Guard.
But that’s far from the extent of it. Every day, state leaders, community leaders and the public at large look to us for expertise and leadership. And by “us,” I don’t just mean the institution; I mean our alumni as well, who are among our most important ambassadors.
People like Dr. Annette Rainge (DMD ’90), who was elected president of the Georgia Dental Association and is the first Black female to serve in that role. Or. Dr. Rebecca DeCarlo (MD ’20), who was one of only 20 students — and the only medical student — to be honored at a White House ceremony recognizing recent graduates who had played a part in the nation’s COVID-19 response.
Perhaps the greatest recognition of the trust the community has placed in us comes from our students themselves, who continue to turn to us to support their educational ambitions.
Though the official numbers won’t be finalized until after this writing, the total enrollment for the fall semester is estimated to be 9,558 students, a number that is stronger than it has been in nearly 10 years. In fact, for the past five years, we have seen on average a 2.8% positive increase in enrollment, even in the face of the pandemic.
That’s good news for JagNation and a true testament to our place in the community.
