‘Boro Browse Fall 2023

We are excited to invite you to participate in our Fall 2023 ‘Boro Browse on the Statesboro campus on Wednesday, August 23, 2023. The Browse gives campus departments, community businesses and non-profit agencies an opportunity to visit campus and share information about their goods and services with Georgia Southern students, staff, and faculty. It is also an excellent opportunity to directly engage with our incoming and returning students to provide them with knowledge of your business, organization, or campus department’s services.

Campus and community partners are highly encouraged to host tables with food, FUN activities, giveaways or other items that showcase your organization the best! Active and engaging booths help students remember your group and what you have to offer. *New* Selling items is now permitted. Soliciting contracts is not permitted.
