Student spotlight: A full circle journey
Haley Rose decided to attend the University of Georgia before she ever set foot on campus.
She knew plenty about the university—her grandfather, Harold Black, was one of UGA’s first Black students to enroll and the first African American graduate from the Terry College of Business. But UGA’s sport management program finalized her decision.
Rose was ready to combine her love of sports with business knowledge gained from her parents. After a soccer injury led her away from active play and toward team management, she felt the draw of athletics administration and knew it was a great fit.
“I can definitely say I made the right decision coming to Athens,” said Rose, who will graduate with degrees in marketing and sport management on Dec. 15.
