Dr. Sethna named to Who's Who in Asian American Communities
May 15, 2006
CARROLLTON, GA - Dr. Beheruz N. Sethna, professor of business administration and president of the University of West Georgia, was included in the inaugural 2006 edition of the “Who’s Who in Asian American Communities” (WWAAC).
The
90-page publication is an annual and brief history of Asian Americans
who live in Georgia. The Asian American population in Georgia more than
doubled in the past decade to 174,000 according to the U.S. census and
the Who’s Who publication.
The UWG president said he is pleased with the inclusion.
“I am humbled and honored by this award,” said Sethna. “Particularly given the increasing stature of the Asian American community in America and the increasing role that this community is playing in professional fields. I am pleased to accept the award with gratitude to my family and my wonderful colleagues and students at UWG.”
