STATESBORO – With final budget approval from the University System of Georgia's Board of Regents, Georgia Southern University has completed planning and is moving forward with development of the Jack and Ruth Ann Hill Convocation Center.
The 95,000-square-foot center is named in honor of the late Senator Jack Hill and his wife of 46 years, Ruth Ann Hill. Both are Georgia Southern graduates.
The Jack and Ruth Ann Hill Convocation Center will be the largest event venue space between Savannah and Macon. Serving as the signature building on Georgia Southern's south campus, it will be located on University-owned land on the southwest side of the intersection of Lanier Drive and Veterans Memorial Parkway (US 301 bypass).
