Georgia Southern University alumnus Bob Mikell, an eighth generation Bulloch County resident and 2017 Alumnus of the Year for the university's College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, will serve as the community chair of the 44th annual community A Day for Southern campaign. The campaign gets underway today with a volunteer luncheon, and the official donation total will be announced next Tuesday, Sept. 12. A Day for Southern gift not only supports the campus community but also enhances the longstanding and positive impact Georgia Southern has made on the Statesboro and greater Bulloch County community.
