        FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why in the world do you call this site FACES? It doesn't seem to bear any relation to what it is.

"FACES" stands for "Family, Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences," and we try to write features that puts a "face" on it (or news you can use). It's a stretch, we know, but we're trying to keep extension, research and classroom instruction in three UGA colleges and schools represented in the name and the coverage.
