Savannah State University Board of Visitors

The board of visitors is a voluntary body of business and community leaders that offers counsel and leadership on initiatives that enhance the stature and contributions of Savannah State University in the region, state and nation. This distinguished body consists of eleven leaders invited by the president to serve three-year appointments, with eligibility for reappointment.
