Georgia Southern University and BB&T recently signed an agreement to create the BB&T Executive in Residence as part of the state's Eminent Scholar Program. BB&T donated $500,000 and the state of Georgia matched the funds during the 2012 legislative session resulting in an endowment totaling $1 million. "We appreciate BB&T making the commitment with this endowment and helping prepare Georgia Southern students for careers in banking," said State Sen. Jack Hill, R-4.
