For the past 15 years, Gainesville State College has been under the leadership of one woman. Now her name will be forever synonymous with the school’s Oakwood campus. On Wednesday, more than 100 people gathered in the former Academic IV building to help pay tribute to the school’s third president, Martha T. Nesbitt, by dedicating the newest building on campus in her name.
