LSU Alumni group in Athens, GA

Ummmm....maybe we can start one!

What did you and your husband move for? We have been here a year so far, and you don't see LSU much...

What sort of degree program?

I too am working on a PhD from UGA in the business school...maybe we should all get together! Maybe we even already know each other!

He's getting a Master's in Conducting (Music) and then possibly sticking around to get a DMA in Conducting as well. We should meet up sometime at one of the restaurants you suggested. I'm craving good mexican!

Welcome to Athens. I don't have LSU stuff on my vehicles because I don't want scratches. I don't know of an organized group here in Athens but there are a few of us around and I have seen others on this board. You will never get comfortable with all the red and black here but it is a great college town.

As of June 21, 424 Georgia resident Tiger fans have now prepaid to reserve their LSU license plate. The numbers are rising again, but we need 1,000 prepaid orders to start production and the clock is ticking. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT TO APPLY!.

Last June, Georgia Department of Revenue Commissioner Bart L. Graham has approved the LSU Atlanta Alumni Chapter's request for special interest or commemorative license plates in the state of Georgia. We have until April 24, 2010 to collect 1,000 pre-paid applications for the plates. Applicants do not need to be an LSU alum. If we reach 1,000 applications, the state will begin production, and LSU can join Auburn, Florida and Clemson as out-of-state schools with Georgia plates.

All money collected resides in an escrow account so you will either get a new plate or your money refunded. We need EVERYONE to help spread the word to LSU fans all over the state to reach our goal.

HOW TO APPLY:

1. Print and complete an Application (click here to download)

2. Write a Check to: Louisiana State University Atlanta Alumni Chapter

3. Mail the Application along with a $25.00 fee to: Sarah Clayton, LSU Atlanta, 2221-D Peachtree Rd NW, # 344, Atlanta, GA 30309.

Here's all the details: Each applicant for the LSU Alumni license plate must submit a Special Interest License Plate application and a $25 manufacturing fee to the Chapter between now and the end of our 2 year period of approval on April 24, 2010. The funds shall be collected by the Chapter and held in a special non-interest bearing account until 1,000 applications have been received. After we receive 1,000 applications for the LSU Alumni license plate, the Chapter shall submit one check to cover all manufacturing fees along with the 1,000 applications for the LSU plate to the Georgia Department of Revenue Motor Vehicle Division. And, in the unlikely event the Chapter does not reach 1,000 paid applications within the 2 year period of approval, the plate will not be manufactured and the Chapter will return all fees collected to our applicants. Note: License plate numbers will be distributed on a 1st come, 1st serve basis. The first 100 plates (numbers 001 – 100) require an additional charge of $25 (for a total of $50 per plate). If you have any questions, please e-mail our committee chairwoman, Michele Heiger at: mecatl@comcast.net. The chapter would like to thank Michele for a dedicated 18 months of effort to gain approval from the Georgia Department of Revenue to accept applications for the plates. Please also help us spread the word about this opportunity for LSU license plates in Georgia. The faster we receive 1,000 applications, the sooner you can have an LSU plate on your car.

LET'S GEAUX GEORGIA TIGERS!
