Turner College News & Notes

The University Information Technology Services (UITS) Help Desk and Repair Shop has temporarily relocated to Room 121 in the Synovus Center, home of the Turner College on CSU's main campus. Students and employees may visit the UITS Help Desk in person at this temporary location, contact the team by phone (706-507-8199) or send an email (helpdesk@columbusstate.edu) for assistance during operating hours, which are 8:00 a.m. through 9:00 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m. Thank you for your patience and understanding as they serve you through this temporary relocation.
Turner College faculty and staff are invited to CSU's Inaugural Korea-Georgia Dialogue on May 20, 2026. The Korea–Georgia Dialogue is the premier signature forum hosted by CSU to strengthen strategic, economic and cultural connections between the Republic of Korea and the State of Georgia. As Georgia becomes a key hub for Korean investment from companies like Hyundai and SK, this event serves as a vital statewide convener for government, industry and academic stakeholders. Through expert panels and keynotes, it will foster cross-sector collaboration and durable international partnerships, while providing exclusive access to senior government, industry, diplomatic and thought leaders who are at the forefront of strategic, economic, and cultural relations between Georgia and South Korea. The event is anchored by the Korean Institute at CSU (KICS), a vibrant center for research and diplomacy that supports Georgia's growing global engagement. KICS leverages the University's strategic location near a large Korean community and U.S. Army Fort Benning's ROK Army detachment to lead workforce development and applied research efforts. By participating, stakeholders and influencers can engage directly with the expertise fueling the state's economic growth and the U.S.-Korea alliance.
