The Medical College of Georgia has presented President's Awards to the city of Augusta and the Augusta Housing Authority for their help on the university's expansion in Augusta.

President Daniel W. Rahn presented the awards, the highest honor MCG bestows, at the annual President's Dinner on Saturday.

The Augusta Commission provided the University System of Georgia Board of Regents with $10 million in September to purchase the Gilbert Manor property from the Augusta Housing Authority. The 15-acre property will be the site of a new School of Dentistry building. An expansion of the School of Medicine also is being planned for the site.
