Vickers & Associates accountants, Taylor Regional Hospital, and Equine Associates & Baker Animal Hospital were the participating businesses for the first year of the program. Brionna Johnson, UGA Career Center associate director of employer relations and Bethany Bagwell, director of the UGA Mentor Program both said the program provided a valuable opportunity to help students grow careers in their hometowns. “We look forward to seeing the Look Ahead program expand to serve more students and businesses, and create even more meaningful connections, next year,” said Johnson.
