🗣CALLING ALL SAVANNAH STATE UNIVERSITY TIGERS ALUMNI & FRIENDS! Get ready because the 2026 SSU Takeover Cruise is back and we're headed to Half Moon Cay & the ALL NEW Celebration Key in the Bahamas on Carnival Freedom. This year's inaugural cruise went down in history as one of the most amazing SSU alumni events of our time. We had approximately 350 SSU Tigers onboard and it was nothing but love, fellowship, family and our bold TIGER PRIDE! So for next year, let's continue the legacy and make it even better by cruising with a purpose because the SSU Takeover 2 is now a fundraiser to benefit our beloved SAVANNAH STATE UNIVERSITY!
#HailSSU 🧡💙🐅
