Why Buy Office Furniture on Georgia State Contract? Top Ten Reasons

For Colleges and Universities, Technical Schools, State and Local Governments buying office furniture on Georgia State Contract is a winner.

Schools and State and Local Governments do have other options, but Georgia State Contract Purchasing for office furniture is often the best.

Here are the Top Ten Reasons to buy Furniture on Georgia State Contract:

1. The State has already negotiated good pricing discounts with the manufacturer, because of the collective purchasing power of the State.  Pricing  is set usually for a three year period.  Pricing discounts vary depending on the level of service needed: delivered and installed or dock delivery.  (Note:  Freight and fuel surcharges can not be added to the prices on State Contract.)

2. Pricing can be all inclusive with delivery, shipping and installation already included in price, no matter where in the State the product is to be delivered and installed.

3. Because the State of Georgia has pre-approved manufacturers, purchase orders can be written even over a $5000.00 dollar amount.

4. If purchased through a certified dealer, the service after the sale is many times better than coming from a vendor who is just selling you one product on a one project basis.

5. If the dealer knows what to do, many times customization of furniture with drawings can be purchased.

6. The Dealer that designs the space, specifies the product, can also purchase it for the end user.  This ensures no substitutions in the specifications (versus bidding) and will give, many times better continuity to the design and overall look on the project.

7. If you need a quote quickly, a Georgia State Contract quote from a good dealer can be made very fast. (This is very handy when you have monies available that need to be directed before end of physical year. (Use it or Loose it)

8. When Jeannetta Design Associates uses Georgia State Contract , fees are paid by the Manufacturer. The end user gets to work with Jeannetta , a premier designer, without paying design fees.  Many times this is a saving of thousands of dollars especially on large projects.

9. Furniture on Georgia State Contract are required to give a minimum of 10 year warranty on most  products (except fabrics, gas lifts, etc.)

10. Invoices are not issued until furniture is delivered, installed and the end user has signed off on the furniture project.

Jeannetta Design Associates is a furniture dealership design group working with Colleges and Universities, Technical Colleges, State and Local Governments, and Corporate Entities.

Twitter in the Classroom

Professors who wish to engage students during large lectures face an uphill battle. Not only is it a logistical impossibility for 200+ students to actively participate in a 90 minute lecture, but the downward sloping cone-shape of a lecture hall induces a one-to-many conversation. This problem is compounded by the recent budget cuts that have squeezed ever more students into each room.

Fortunately, educators (including myself) have found that Twitter is an effective way to broaden participation in lecture.

Georgia State Tops Nation’s Best College Dorms

Bill O'Leary/The Washington Post via Getty Images

For most people, recalling their college dorm elicits some strong emotions. For some, it’s where they drink their first beer. For others, its the inescapable scent of the never-vacuumed carpets.

Now, a new dorm review website DormSplash.com has ranked the nation’s best and worst. See the complete lists here.

Colleges dorms come in all shapes and sizes. But if you’re looking for the best, Georgia State University takes the cake. Other schools following closely include University of Missouri-Columbia, Winona State University and Loyola University in Maryland.

The individual winner of best dorm in the country was St. Basil’s Court (La Salle University), followed by Lucas Hall (Winona State University), Farley Hall (Villanova University) and University Commons (Georgia State University).

Do you remember your college home as miserable or dilapidated? Garner Hall (University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign) tops the list as worst dorm in the country. Similarly dreadful conditions can be found at Commonwealth Hall (George Mason University), Darnall Hall (Georgetown University) and President’s Park (George Mason University).

If you’re looking for a party, Briscoe-Shoemaker (Indiana University-Bloomington) tops the nation’s on campus residences. Also flipping cups and tossing pong balls are the residents of Riepe College House (University of Pennsylvania), Lucas Hall (Winona State University) and Bobb-McCulloch (Northwestern University).

The nation’s hottest students live in Hurst Hall (Mississippi State University). Other halls noted for their looks include Ragans Hall (Florida State University), Welsh Hall (Villanova University) and Wildwood Hall (Florida State University).

Beyond looks and amenities, the study ranked resident assistants (RAs). Rice University came in first, followed by Yale University, Kansas State University and North Carolina State University at Raleigh.
