Post-Gubernatorial Bid
After her unsuccessful gubernatorial run, Cox served a one-semester appointment as the Carl E. Sanders Political Leadership Scholar at the University of Georgia School of Law. As the Carl Sanders Scholar, she taught two courses, Election Law and Law and Politics, to second and third year law students.
The Carl E. Sanders Chair was established in 2002 by a $1 million gift to the UGA Law School by former Georgia governor and current Chairman Emeritus of Atlanta-based law firm Troutman Sanders LLP. The gift resulted from Sanders' longstanding commitment to see the law school at the University of Georgia "be one of such excellence that no citizen of Georgia need ever leave the state because a superior legal education is afforded elsewhere.".
On May 12, 2007, Cox gave the commencement address to the graduating class of Mercer University's Walter F. George School of Law, her law school alma mater. During the ceremony, she was awarded the honorary degree, Doctor of Laws.
She is now the 21st President of Young Harris College in Young Harris, GA.
