Statesboro native James Shaw is living the life he dreamed about as a 5-year-old — working for NASA. Shaw graduated Dec. 9 from Georgia Southern University and the mechanical engineering major just finished his fourth rotation in a cooperative education program with NASA and is thanking his GSU experiences for leading him there. After graduating from Southeast Bulloch High School in 2003, Shaw joined the U.S. Army and served in South Korea, Kuwait and Iraq. He came to Georgia Southern in the spring of 2010 to pursue his engineering degree at the university he always wanted to attend.
