The President of Georgia State University bestows the title Emeritus/Emerita, on faculty and administration who have distinguished themselves through research, teaching and/or service with ten or more years of honorable and distinguished service.

The Association provides Emeriti opportunities for intellectual, creative, and social connections with each other through events of interest at the University and in the communities served by the University.  All emeriti are encouraged to stay connected and to be active in the Emeriti Association.
