Dr. Julian Stanley, a West Georgia alumnus, wanted to make sure this standard was upheld even after he passed away. Dr. Stanley cared deeply about helping students learn, playing an integral part in education research worldwide.

After his death, Dr. Stanley continued to contribute to the cause with gifts to numerous institutions. He was gracious enough to remember UWG with a planned gift of $250,000. The majority of his gift went toward the university's Advanced Academy, while other funds were earmarked for the Department of Biology. Dr. Stanley's impact will be felt for years to come. His incredible kindness has inspired other donors to give to UWG, ensuring that students from all walks of life will have the opportunity for a better education.
