New UGA Facility at Wormsloe to Enhance Research
For more than a decade Wormsloe, a historic property on the Isle of Hope near Savannah, has served as an outdoor classroom and research site for University of Georgia students and faculty. With a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Feb. 2, UGA celebrated the opening of an indoor space to enhance instruction, research and outreach in this unique setting.
The new $1.8 million Experiential Learning Center will serve as a classroom, laboratory and gathering space at the Center for Research and Education at Wormsloe (CREW), where UGA faculty members and graduate students conduct research in archaeology, historic preservation, geology, landscape architecture and other fields at one of the most ecologically and historically significant sites along Georgia’s coast.
