Representing the state of Georgia at the Henry Clay Center for Statesmanship Scholarship program in July will be Augusta State University student Andre Goodman, a political science major.

Mr. Goodman, president of ASU’s Student Government Association (SGA), will receive the scholarship to the annual Student Congress in Lexington, Ky. The scholarship will cover transportation, housing, food, course materials, and activities during the week-long program.

The program was developed to help educate a new generation of students in the skills and processes of statesmanship. The Henry Clay Center for Statesmanship conducts an annual undergraduate short course, a Student Congress that exposes top college juniors from every state to a curriculum in diplomacy, dialogue, listening skills, negotiation, and mediation.

Mr. Goodman has served as member of several student organizations at ASU including the Black Student Union, former president of the Talented Tenth, and former SGA senator. He was also instrumental in coordinating the Glenn Hills and East Augusta Middle Schools Criterion Reference Competency Test academic rally.
