Georgia Peach Book Award for Teen Readers

The nominees for next year's Georgia Peach Book Award have now been announced. The committee met yesterday and released the titles. It was my third and final year serving on this committee, and as always, it was a great day of talking about books. Galloway has almost all of these in the library now, so feel free to come and get them. Take a closer look on our library Pinterest board.

Buddy Photos


Created with flickr slideshow.


Today Galloway's buddy groups took photos all over campus. Take a look at how much fun they had. They were able to take pictures in the following categories:


  1. Show you and your buddies performing an amazing physical feat (sports or otherwise).
  2. Best team selfie (includes all buddies in your group)
  3. Oxymoron: do something in a place where you wouldn’t normally 
  4. do it
  5. Parkour: show off your parkour skills by jumping over an object in style
  6. Get a photo with a Galloway faculty or staff member. Funniest photo wins.
  7. Take a picture of your group doing something unusual in the library (EL library, Portal, or ML/UL Library)
  8. Team up with another group to form a pyramid.
  9. Stage a classic “That’s So Galloway” photograph that admission would love to use.
  10. Read a book somewhere that no one has read before.
