The Dean Rusk Center at the University of Georgia School of Law will host U.S. Rep.

The presentation will be on Jan. 17 at 12:30 p.m. in the Larry Walker Room, Dean Rusk Hall. The event is free and open to the public.

First elected in 2002, Scott is serving his sixth term representing Georgia’s 13th Congressional District, which includes six Atlanta-area counties—Cobb, Clayton, Douglas, Fayette, Fulton and Henry. He is on the Financial Services Committee, the Agriculture Committee and the NATO Parliamentary Assembly. 

Previously, he served as a Georgia state representative from 1975 to 1982 and as a Georgia state senator from 1983 to 2002. He also ran his own advertising agency, Dayn-Mark Advertising, in Atlanta during the early 1970s. 

Scott is a member of the Rusk Center’s Board of Advisors. He earned a bachelor’s degree with honors from Florida A&M University and a master’s degree from the Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania.
