Pittman Society event in April. The weekend of activities is a way for the University to honor those who have provided lifetime gifts of $25,000 to $1 million or more to Georgia Southern. The Society consists of five giving levels: the Lantern Walk, Sweetheart Circle, Southern Fellows, Founders\u2019 Guild and the President\u2019s Club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur donors are passionate in their support of the University,\u201d said Salinda Arthur, vice president for University Advancement. \u201cWe are grateful for this opportunity to show them our appreciation and thank them in person for making a difference at Georgia Southern. Their gifts enable the University to fund scholarships and other academic initiatives that provide our students with enriching and life-shaping experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The weekend of activities featured a reception, a tour of the new Ted Smith Family Football Center and a recognition luncheon for new and advancing members in the Marvin S. Pittman Society. The festivities also included a Roaring \u201820s Casino Night at the Eugene M. Bishop Alumni Center.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"650\" height=\"488\"><param name=\"flashvars\" value=\"offsite=true&#038;lang=en-us&#038;page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Fgeorgiasouthern%2Fsets%2F72157654750897725%2Fshow%2F&#038;page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Fgeorgiasouthern%2Fsets%2F72157654750897725%2F&#038;set_id=72157654750897725&#038;jump_to=\"><\/param><param name=\"movie\" value=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/apps\/slideshow\/show.swf?v=1811922554\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/apps\/slideshow\/show.swf?v=1811922554\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" flashvars=\"offsite=true&#038;lang=en-us&#038;page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Fgeorgiasouthern%2Fsets%2F72157654750897725%2Fshow%2F&#038;page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Fgeorgiasouthern%2Fsets%2F72157654750897725%2F&#038;set_id=72157654750897725&#038;jump_to=\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Celebration for Donor Society Members<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2725,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[47],"class_list":["post-2627","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-foundation","tag-spring-2015"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2627","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2627"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2627\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2725"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2627"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2627"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ww2.georgiasouthern.edu\/news\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2627"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
