Georgia Northwestern Technical College student Tatiana Edwards has been named president of the statewide Georgia Student Government Association for the 2020-21 school year.

Edwards, of Cave Spring, is majoring in Logistics and Supply Chain Management. As GSGA president, she will oversee the Georgia Fall Leadership Conference and represent the organization at all events.

“I am so proud and excited to have Tatiana representing GNTC at the state level,” said Trish Wiggins, coordinator of recruitment and Student Life. “She is active in every student organization we have here at the college, but has truly stepped up as a strong leader for student government.”

Edwards had to submit an application along with letters of recommendation from GNTC President Heidi Popham as well as her advisor and dean. She also submitted an essay on why she wanted to be a state officer.

“It is incredibly exciting to be serving as president of the GSGA,” said Edwards.

She is currently vice president of the GNTC Student Government Association and is actively involved in Phi Beta Lambda and Skillsusa.

The GSGA represents the local student government associations and leadership councils in the Technical College System of Georgia. Its purpose is to promote student involvement in the technical colleges by sharing information and by providing assistance to member schools.
