During a recent memorial service, the stories shared by his former students offered a portrait of University of Georgia professor John C. Waters, who died in August, and his many accomplishments. A landscape architect by training, Waters was a pioneer who co-authored (with former Carl Vinson Institute of Government director Mel Hill) the Georgia Historic Preservation Act, and spent years working for its adoption with former Georgia House Speaker Tom Murphy. The act passed in 1980.
