George Petrie Society

George Petrie (1866-1947), best known for his authorship of the Auburn Creed, demonstrated remarkable dedication and generosity toward Auburn University. To this day no one has ever bequeathed more to Auburn. His creed has provided unforgettable words of inspiration for generations of Auburn students, alumni and friends. This special society emphasizes the vital importance of planned gifts which secure the future of the University. To become a member of the George Petrie Society notify the Office of Planned Giving at 334-844-7375 that you have included Auburn University, the Auburn University Foundation or Auburn Montgomery in your will or estate plan. Petrie Society members are honored at a biennial reception held in the spring.
