“Video Game Innovation Raises Atlanta’s Profile,” according to LCC Professor Ian Bogost

Ivan Allen College and the School of Literature, Communication and Culture (LCC) are celebrating the 10th anniversary of digital media degree programs at Georgia Tech with the Living Game Worlds Symposium on March 16. “While there is still much work to do, Atlanta will create the next generation of video gaming, with Georgia Tech leading the way,” wrote LCC Professor Ian Bogost in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on March 7.

At the Founder’s Day Luncheon on March 15 the Ivan Allen College Legacy Awards were Announced.

With the support and cooperation of the Allen family, Ivan Allen College established three Legacy Awards in 2004 in honor of Ivan Allen Jr.’s passing These awards, generously underwritten by Ivan Allen Workspace, recognize a faculty member, a student, and an alumnus for his/her outstanding contributions to the College and Tech communities and are presented at the Founder’s Day luncheon ceremony each year.
