A back-to-school spirit was in the air at Georgia Perimeter College’s five campuses with the opening day of fall classes on Monday, Aug. 18.

A number of faculty members are offering words of sage advice to students via GPC’s Facebook page. Their messages range from the obvious (“be present” and “go to class”) to the practical (“get involved” and “have a conference with your teacher”) to the whimsical (“don’t worry, be happy!”)

Erica Faulkner, who oversees social media content for GPC, says faculty members can contribute their own advice to the incoming class on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter using #gpcsmartchoice.
