On April 23 the Georgia Tech Ambassadors, in conjunction with the Presidents’ Council Governing Board, held their ninth annual Up With The White And Gold Ceremony. Open to the entire campus community, the annual event is designed to be a celebration of achievements and leadership.

At this year's event more than 20 organizations and departments presented awards to students, faculty, staff, and student organizations recognizing their contributions to campus life, involvement, and leadership.
