The University System of Georgia (USG), which includes Dalton State College, has updated plans for the return to face-to-face instruction, requiring face masks when indoors with few exceptions.

Dalton State is preparing to return to campus for face-to-face instruction for fall semester, which begins in August.

An elongated tortoise, Indotestudo elongata, hatched this week making it the third species to successfully breed in captivity at the college.

Dalton State wasn’t able to host an in-person Honors Convocation this year due to the pandemic, but honors students were still recognized and awards were sent through the mail.
