Petit Makes $1.5 Million Gift to Football!

Everyone stand up and clap your hands for Mr. Petit.  Thank you!

Georgia State University hasn’t played a football game yet, but the program has scored a key victory as alumnus and long-time benefactor Parker H. “Pete” Petit has made a $1.5 million commitment toward the GSU Football Practice Complex, representing the largest gift ever made to GSU athletics.

“I believe that having football at Georgia State University will provide numerous benefits for the students and the University,” said Petit. “Under Coach Bill Curry, Panther football will add a new dimension to the excitement and enthusiasm that students will feel about their University experience.
