Panther Traditions
Our story’s been shaped my more than a hundred years of history. Over the decades, we’ve picked up time-honored traditions that are now considered badges of honor — and rites of passage — for every Panther. Put them on your bucket list.
BRONZIE

It’s been said that rubbing the nose of “Bronzie” — a life-size sculpture of Georgia State’s mascot, Pounce — brings luck. For good fortune, visit Bronzie in Unity Plaza at the start of each semester, ahead of big games and before exams.

CENTER PARC STADIUM

We acquired legendary Turner Field (former home of the Atlanta Braves and the 1996 Summer Olympics) in 2017 and transformed it into Center Parc Stadium, home field for the Panthers football team. In the fall of 2022, we opened a brand-new Convocation Center and arena for Panthers basketball, and in the coming years, we’ll debut baseball and softball parks.
STUDENT RECREATION CENTER
Scale indoor boulders, find serenity in the spa and swim laps at the Student Recreation Center. While you’re at it, unwind and recharge your mind in a fitness class or personal training session. And if you aren’t exactly a pro athlete but love playing for fun, join one of the university’s 25 sport clubs.
