5 Minutes With… Paul Jones
2026-08-24
Interview by Susannah Cox Maddux | Photo by Jave Bjorkman. When Paul Jones was appointed to be the 10th president of Fort Valley State University a decade ago, he was no stranger to Central Georgia. From 2002-2013 he took on multiple executive roles at Georgia College and State University in Milledgeville, part of a long career in higher education that brought Dr. Jones, a Los Angeles native, to multiple states and institutions. During his tenure at FVSU, Jones led the institution to expanded enrollment, retention, and graduation outcomes as well as being named the No. 1 regional university in Georgia for social mobility, according to U.S. News & World Report. Jones caught up with Macon Magazine just as his retirement became effective in June 2026.
