We love having a full house! Congratulations Class of 2014 and welcome to the UNCW Alumni Association!

May graduates celebrated with family and friends at the iconic Wise Alumni House, home to the UNCW Alumni Association, during what will be the first of many festivities honoring their achievements this weekend. The celebration, a growing tradition which began in 2009, commemorates this bittersweet moment for graduates, serving as a reminder that no matter how far they soar, they are Seahawks for life.

The association's Board of Directors helped host the party and share that all graduates are an important part of the alumni association, and are welcome to participate in events and programs for our alumni.

Hats off to the Class of 2014, we are so proud of our Seahawks!

On Sunday, April 13, 25 new Student Ambassadors were officially inducted into the organization at the Wise Alumni House. The Student Ambassadors serve the Alumni Association by volunteering at events and representing the student body to our alumni population. Most of the students inducted into the organization are freshman and will serve for their four years at UNCW by providing tours to prospective students and volunteering at alumni and donor events. The organization is made up of 65 students. Several of the student’s families traveled from out of town to celebrate their children at this important event.
