Summer at the Dub

Hey everyone,

We recently received a comment here at the blog asking if we'd ever be posting about events happening during the summer.  It wasn't in the plans to do so, but because you've asked for it, we will do it!!!

You can tune in every Monday to see what is going on around campus that week!

There is an over-arching programming effort that takes place during the summer at UNCW called Summer at the Dub.  You can check-out the website by clicking here.

Until Monday...

Free For All Friday

Good morning, everyone!

Since this is the weekend during the middle of exams, there is not much going on throughout campus this weekend.  However, the Fischer Union is open during late hours this week and of course Randall Library is available to you as well!

If you need a slight break from studying, feel free to check out the baseball team!  They are playing Georgia State throught the weekend at Brooks Field.  Check them out on Friday at 6:00 pm, Saturday at 4:00pm, or Sunday at 2:00 pm.

Until next time...

Thursday's Thanks

Good morning, everyone!

This week the Landing staff would like to take some time to thank Residence Coordinator Danielle Page!  Daniell is in charge of HRL's Staff Recognition committee and has spent the whole year recognizing other people so we'd like to recognize her this week!

Danielle helped to plan all of our recognition weeks for professional staff, students, administrative staff, etc.  She also planned the 3.5 banquets for students with over a 3.5 gpa in the Fall semester and the end of the year banquet for RAs!  Daniell also spends time as the RC in the Seahawk Village!

For ALL you've done to thank everyone else this year, we say THANKS to Danielle Page!

Until next time...

New Chancellor Annoucement

The Board of Governors of the UNC System will meet in special session at UNCW on Tuesday, May 3, 2011, to elect and announce the next chancellor of the University of North Carolina Wilmington. The meeting will convene at 2 p.m. in Room 162 of the Education Building. This is an open meeting, but a short part of the meeting will be conducted in closed session in order for the board to hear the report of the Committee on Personnel and Tenure.
The campus community is invited to a special reception following the Board of Governors meeting to welcome the "chancellor elect" to campus. Light refreshments will be available in the atrium of the Education Building starting at approximately 3 p.m. Please plan to attend and help provide an enthusiastic Seahawk welcome for UNCW's next leader.
The announcement of the new chancellor at the board meeting will be live streamed on the UNCW website so that everyone can have the opportunity to watch this historic event. The URL for the live stream is http://uncwtv.uncw.edu/bog.html.

Because of the closed session agenda, it is not known exactly when the live feed will be available—streaming will begin as soon as the board meeting comes back into open session. In addition to posting online, the live announcement may be viewed on campus TVs on Channel 77.

Until next time...
