Athens, Ga. – Holley Schramski, who has been in the University of Georgia business services division for nearly 11 years, has been named associate vice president and controller, effective Sept. 1, 2004.

We expect a seamless transition and are delighted to have Holley in the role of associate vice president and controller. We are also grateful to George for his years of service as controller and associate vice president for auxiliary and administrative services. He will continue to be a very valuable member of the leadership of the Finance and Administration Division in his role as associate vice president for auxiliary and administrative services.”
As controller, Schramski will oversee fiscal operations, which include accounting, accounts payable, accounts receivable, student accounts, contracts and grants, payroll, expenditure control, procurement and property control.
“I look forward to using my talents to continue successful operations in our division,” said Schramski. “This is a demanding role and I am grateful for the challenge.”
A certified public accountant, Schramski worked for Arthur Andersen and Company in Cincinnati before coming to UGA. The Fort Lauderdale, Fla., native earned both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in accounting from the University of Florida.
