In November 2017, just three months after they got married, Alex (BSES ’14) and Meredith Zimmerman (BBA ’15) quit their jobs in Charlotte, North Carolina, and moved to St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Their plans were vague, but their ambition and sense of adventure were anything but.

Georgia Supreme Court Justices

A deep bench

Look no further than the UGA Golf Course, where players recharge after rigorous practices in the plush Boyd Golf Center, named after the late former amateur standout and Georgia Golf Hall of Fame director David Boyd (BBA ’63).
