UNCW  ranked  1 4th  in  the  South 


Twice  during  the  fall,  UNCW 
received  a  boost  in  its  na- 
tional reputation  when  it  "hit 
the  charts"  in  U.S.  News  and  World 
Report. 

The  first  honor  came  in  the 
magazine's  annual  guide  to  "America's 
Best  Colleges."  UNCW  was  ranked 
14th  among  approximately  150  re- 
gional universities  in  the  South.  This 
is  up  from  a  ranking  of  25th  last  year. 

To  arrive  at  this  ranking,  U.S. 
News  did  a  reputational  survey  of 
officials  at  1 ,400  accredited  four-year 
colleges  and  universities  and  com- 
bined those  results  with  educational 
data  provided  by  each  university. 

A  later  report  in  U .  S .  News  placed 
UNCW  fourth  in  efficiency,  based  on 


its  overall  score  in  the  earlier  rankings 
and  the  school's  1993  spending  on 
educational  programs  per  student. 

"UNCW  is  very  proud  of  this 
recognition,  for  all  of  us  have  worked 
very  hard  to  make  the  best  possible 


use  of  the  limited  resources  with 
which  we  have  to  operate,"  said 
Marvin  Moss,  UNCW  provost  and 
vice  chancellor  for  academic  affairs. 
"Our  goal  has  been  to  provide  quality 
education  to  the  people  of  this  re- 
gion, and  that  has  meant  that  we 
have  had  to  do  more  with  fewer  re- 
sources than  most  of  our  counter- 
parts in  the  state." 

Both  rankings  are  representative 
of  UNCW's  formal  goal  to  become 
the  best  teaching  university  in  the 
Southeast  by  the  year  2000.  Indica- 
tive of  the  university's  commitment 
to  improving,  40  percent  of  this  year's 
freshmen  chose  UNCW  because  of 
its  growing  academic  reputation;  that 
is  double  the  1991  figure. 


UNCW'produced  'River  Run' 
award-winning  documentary 


UNCW's  documentary  River 
Run:  Down  the  Cape  Fear 
to  the  Sea  has  received  sev- 
eral honors  since  it  premiered  on 
UNC-TV  in  June  1994. 

The  Silver  Reel  award  was  pre- 
sented to  the  documentary's  creators 
by  the  International  Television 
Video  Association. 

In  February,  two  Awards  of  Ex- 
cellence were  presented  to  univer- 
sity officials  by  the  Council  for 
Advancement  and  Support  of  Edu- 
cation District  III.  The  documentary 
received  recognition  as  an  educa- 
tional fund-raising  program  and  tor 
its  radio  promotions. 

In  addition,  the  "Gone  Fishin'" 
invitation  for  the  premiere  party, 
which  was  mailed  to  guests  in  brightly 
colored  plastic  fish,  won  an  award  for 


excellence  and  originality. 

The  N.C.  Wildlife  Federation 
awarded  the  documentary  a  special 
merit  award  in  the  area  of  conserva- 
tion communications  in  its  1994 
Governor's  Conservation  Achieve- 
ment Award  Program.  It  also  received 
honors  from  the  N.C.  Department  of 
Environment,  Health  and  National 
Resources  in  the  1994  Take  Pride  in 
North  Carolina  awards  program. 

River  Run  was  created  and  pro- 
duced by  UNCW  to  increase  public 
awareness  of  the  fragility  of  the  Cape 
Fear  River  Basin  ecosystem.  It 
prompted  both  industries  and  envi- 
ronmental groups  to  work  together 
to  preserve  the  health  of  the  river 
and  may  have  an  impact  on  future 
legislation  as  the  need  for  increased 
monitoring  of  the  river  is  realized. 


New  business 
programs  set 
to  begin  in  fall 

To  better  meet  the  needs  of  area 
residents,  Cameron  School  of  Busi- 
ness Administration  has  restructured 
its  MBA  program  and  created  two 
new  degrees:  a  Master  of  Science  in 
Accountancy  and  an  evening  under- 
graduate program. 

The  new  MBA  program  will  use 
an  integrated  approach  where  stu- 
dents will  study  relationships  between 
accounting,  finance,  marketing,  and 
production  and  design  sciences. 

The  MSA  degree  is  open  to  quali- 
fied students  with  degrees  in  fields 
other  than  accounting  and  will  take 
10  to  13  months  to  complete. 

Evening  undergraduate  classes 
will  be  offered  beginning  this  fall  to 
make  the  business  degree  program 
more  accessible  to  individuals  who 
work  during  the  day.

Construction 
on  schedule 


Since  construction  on  UNCW's 
new  Science  Building  began 
in  October,  crews  have  been 
hard  at  work  clearing  the  dirt  away 
and  putting  in  pilings. 

They  started  bringing  steel  to 
the  construction  site  in  January,  and 
Carl  Dempsey,  director  of  construc- 
tion, stated  that  more  than  50  flat 
bed  trailers  of  steel  are  needed  for 
the  building. 

Representatives  with  Clancy  and 
Theys,  the  same  company  that  built 
Cameron  School  ot  Business 
Administration.say  they  are  on  sched- 
ule, and  there  are  no  problems.  The 
two-story,  100,000-square-foot  sci- 
ence building  is  scheduled  for  comple- 
tion  in  June  1996  and  will  cost 
approximately  $18.5  million. 

Planning  to  replace  UNCW's 


Workers  with  Clancy  and  Theys  are  laying  the 

Center  for  Marine  Science  Research 
at  Wrightsville  Beach  with  a  new  fa- 
cility in  Myrtle  Grove  will  continue 
through  next  year.  The  new  teaching 
and  research  center  will  allow  access 
to  the  ocean  and  tidal  creeks  and  give 
the  university  space  to  expand  some 
ot  its  marine  science  programs. 

However,  funding  for  the  center 
is  still  uncertain.  The  1 00,000-square- 
foot  building  is  expected  to  cost  a 


foundation  for  UNCW's  Science  Building 

little  more  than  $24  million.  Funding 
for  the  project  is  being  considered  by 
the  state  General  Assembly. 

Although  construction  will  have 
to  wait  until  the  first  drawings  have 
been  completed,  a  769-foot  pier  has 
already  been  built  for  research  pur- 
poses. The  road  leading  out  to  the 
proposed  center  has  also  been  paved.

Two  potters  named  'living  treasures' 


Two  nationally  known  potters 
were  recognized  by  UNCW 
as  "living  treasures." 
Sidney  G.  Luck  of  Seagrove  was 
named  1994  North  Carolina  Living 
Treasure,  and  Toshiko  Takaezu  of 
Quakertown,  N.J.,  was  chosen  1995 
National  Living  Treasure.  Both  selec- 
tions were  made  by  the  Institute  for 


Toshiko  Takaezu  is  an  innovator  in  the 
ceramic  closed  form. 


Human  Potential  at  UNCW. 

Owner  of  Luck's  Ware  pottery 
shop,  Luck  is  following  a  family  tradi- 
tion of  turning  pottery  in  Seagrove.  In 
1955  when  Luck  was  10,  his  father  re- 
opened his  grandfather's  pottery  shop, 
built  an  electric  wheel  and  became  his 
teacher.  More  than  30  years  and  many 
pieces  of  pottery  later,  Luck  built  his 
own  shop  where  he  worked  part-time. 
In  1990,  he  left  his  high  school  teach- 
ing job  to  fulfill  his  dream  of  full-time 
pottery  turning. 

A  native  Hawaiian,  Takaezu  is 
recognized  as  an  innovator  in  the 
ceramic  closed  form.  Her  artwork 
moved  from  small  utilitarian  forms 
to  large,  monumental  forms  as  she 
explored  the  creative  possibilities 
of  clay. 

Takaezu  studied  pottery  at  Ho- 
nolulu Academy  of  Arts,  the  Univer- 


Takaez'u 


sity  of  Hawaii 
and  Michigan's 
Cr  an  brook 
Academy  of 
Art,  where  she 
later  taught. 
She  was  on  the 
faculty  of 

Princeton  Uni- 
versity from 
1966  to  1992 
before  her  retirement. 

In  North  Carolina  where  the 
heritage  of  functional  art  is  still 
strong,  UNCW  selects  a  state  living 
treasure  each  fall  and  a  national  liv- 
ing treasure  biannually  in  recogni- 
tion of  talent  and  master 
craftsmanship.  Dr.  Gerald  Shinn, 
professor  ot  philosophy  and  director 
of  the  Institute  tor  Human  Potential, 
founded  the  awards.

Will  the  real  Jerry  Shinns  please  stand  up? 


BY  ROBERT  T.  BROWN 

Yes,  Shinns.  Given  all  that 
he  has  done,  there  must  he 
more  than  one!  Jerry  Shinn 
is  one  of  North  Carolina's  most  un- 
forgettable characters.  Unfortu- 
nately, I  cannot  convey  the  impact 
of  meeting  Jerry  -  no  matter  who 
the  person  is,  he  or  she  feels  as 
though  no  one  else  matters. 

The  word  giving,  however  over- 
used, applies  to  Jerry  -  giving  of 
time,  enthusiasm,  warmth,  support 
and  kindness.  A  consummate  full- 
time  educator  in  the  lessons  of  liv- 
ing, rather  than  teach  others  what 
he  knows,  Jerry  teaches  them  how 
to  learn  and  that  they  can  learn  - 
for  themselves.  He  does  so  every- 
where he  goes.  Indeed,  most  of  his 
thousands  of  students  have  never 
set  foot  in  one  of  his  classes. 

Like  other  great  teachers,  Jerry 
will  never  die  -  he  will  live 
through  his  students,  generation  af- 
ter generation.  Through  them  will 
run  a  message  expressed  by  Jacob 
Bronowski  in  his  Ascent  of  Man: 
"We  must  touch  people." 

His  efforts  range  from  informal 
individual  programs  to  the  estab- 
lishment of  statewide,  national  and 
international  awards.  In  some  ways, 
the  more  informal  ones  better  char- 
acterize him.  Jerry  has  encouraged 
thousands  of  people,  from  children 
to  older  adults,  to  make  accom- 
plishments of  which  they  did  not 
think  themselves  capable. 


Get  ready  for  a  'Shinn  Dig' 

This  is  Jeopardy!  The  answer  is:  "Shinn  Dig." 

The  question  is:  "What  is  the  term  for  an  archeological  expedition  in  the 
Mideast  led  by  a  renowned  and  retiring  member  of  the  UNCW  Philosophy 
and  Religion  Department?" 

UNCW  will  hold  its  own  Shinn  Dig,  of  sorts,  when  it  honors  Dr.  Gerald 
Shinn,  who  will  officially  retire  from  UNCW  after  a  career  spanning  nearly 
30  years.  Friends,  colleagues,  students  and  others  whose  lives  have  been 
touched  by  Dr.  Shinn  are  all  invited  to  a  reception  from  3:30  to  7  p.m.  Friday, 
April  28,  in  the  University  Union  living  room. 

Dr.  Shinn  said  he  and  his  wife  will  be  moving  to  "the  farm"  in  Albemarle, 
where  he  plans  to  build  a  library,  "sit  up  on  the  hill,  read  and  do  a  little  travelin'." 


His  programs  for  gifted  chil- 
dren have  enabled  many  to  reach  a 
level  of  considerable  renown.  Many 
of  our  graduates  are  in  successful 
professional  and  graduate  careers 
owing  to  Jerry's  belief  in  them 
when  they  did  not  believe  in  them- 
selves. The  time  he  has  spent  with 
his  students,  his  young'uns  as  he 
calls  them,  is  incalculable. 

The  formidable  list  of  formal 
programs  Jerry  has  established 
includes: 

1 )  Albert  Schweitzer  Interna- 
tional Prizes,  awarded  every  four 
years  at  UNCW  to  honor  the 
memory  of  Schweitzer  in  the  areas 
of  medicine,  music  and  humanities. 
Two  recipients  subsequently  have 
been  awarded  Nobel  Prizes. 

2 )  North  Carolina  Living  Trea- 
sure Award,  awarded  annually  at 
UNCW  to  an  outstanding  North 


Carolina  artisan.  This  award  is 
noteworthy  for  its  impact  on  recipi- 
ents and  students  alike.  Recipients 
demonstrate  their  crafts  for  our  stu- 
dents, giving  them  a  unique  educa- 
tion about  their  heritage.  But 
consider  also  the  recipients.  Several 
have  received  their  awards  with 
tear-filled  eyes,  barely  able  to  speak 
in  acceptance;  the  award  has  been 
their  first  recognition  of  a  career 
devoted  to  craftsmanship. 

3 )  National  Living  Treasure 
Award,  presented  biannually  at 
UNCW  to  an  outstanding  United 
States  craftsman. 

4)  UNCW  Museum  of  World 
Cultures,  which  has  displays  in 
most  UNCW  academic  buildings. 
Concerned  many  years  ago  that  our 
students  were  little  aware  of  contri- 
butions of  other  cultures,  Jerry  sim- 
ply started  a  museum  himself.  Some 


SPRING   95 


SPRING      95 


of  its  collections  are  now  among 
the  best  in  the  Southeast.  Jerry  was 
fostering  appreciation  of  the  best  of 
cultural  diversity  before  the  phrase 
existed.  It  you  have  not  seen  the 
museum's  displays,  treat  yourself  to 
a  campus  tour.  He  has  given  us  a 
unique  museum  without  walls. 

5)  "Parnassus  on  Wheels,"  a 
one-person  effort  to  help  combat 
illiteracy  and  ignorance  in  North 
Carolina.  Like  so  much  of  what 
Jerry  does,  it  is  a  quiet  but  tangible 
effort  to  help  people  reach  a  poten- 
tial that  otherwise  might  elude 
them.  Has  Jerry  publicized  his  pro- 
gram? Only  through  a  small  sign  on 
the  dashboard  of  his  car. 

■    A  limitation  ot  this  tribute  is 
that  it  cannot  capture  his  most  im- 
portant quality  -  that  Jerry  is  Jerry] 

Alas,  there  really  is  only  one 
Jerry  Shinn,  but  he  will  live  on. 
Many  stories  about  him  also 
should  live  on. 

For  example:  Years  ago,  Con- 
gressman Charlie  Rose  and  then 
UNC  President  William  Friday 
were  both  on  stage  at  a  formal 
gathering  of  Jerry's  in  Kenan  Au- 
ditorium We  do  not  remember 
who  addressed  the  audience  from 
the  podium  and  who  nodded  in 
complete  agreement  from  his 
chair,  but  the  speaker  said,  "Every 
campus  needs  one  Jerry  Shinn  — 
but  only  one!" 

What  will  UNCW  do  now  that 
it  is  are  losing  its  "one"? 

Robert  T.  Brown  is  a  professor  of 
psychology  at  UNCW. 


Young'uns'  memories 

My  most  vivid  memory  ot  Dr.  Shinn  is  of  a  particular  day  in  our  Old 
Testament  religion  class.  He  was  lecturing  about  the  Israelites'  attack  on  the 
city  of  Jericho.  He  was  walking  around  the  large  desk  in  the  front  of  the 
room,  demonstrating  how  the  Israelites  walked  around  the  wall  of  Jericho  to 
break  it  down  when  all  of  the  sudden,  with  no  warning  whatsoever,  he 
turned  around  and  flipped  the  desk  over  in  the  middle  of  the  room.  Needless 
to  say,  we  were  all  rather  surprised  and  just  sat  there  dumbfounded  for  a 
while.  The  demonstration  was  vivid  to  say  the  least. 

That  is  probably  the  most  striking  thing  about  Dr.  Shinn,  that  he  is  a 
vivid  person.  He  helped  us  all  realize  that  we  did  not  have  to  look  across  the 
nation  or  the  world  to  find  greatness,  hut  all  we  had  to  do  was  look  in  our 
own  "backyards"  of  North  Carolina. 

-  Renee  Moseley  Loy,  Kernersville 

Oh!  Could  I  tell  you  stories!  But  frankly,  there  is  no  way  I  could 
condense  all  the  memories  I  have  of  taking  Intro  to  Logic  with  Dr.  Shinn 
and  simply  offer  only  one  story. 

We  were  the  not-so-vandalistic  chalk  cult.  Anyone  who  has  had  logic 
knows  what  I  mean  when  I  refer  to  Jerry's  sidewalk  sessions.  I  remember 
hearing  the  questioning  voices  of  Shinnless  individuals  on  my  way  to 
class:  "What  is  this  stuff?"  ...  "Who  did  this?"    While  others  were  in 
their  classes  taking  notes,  we  were  on  our  knees  temporarily  etching  our- 
selves into  the  concrete. 

I've  never  met  a  person  so  concerned  with  the  needs  of  others  or  so 
patient  with  freshmen.  Then  again,  I've  also  never  known  a  man  who 
tucked  his  tie  in  his  breast  pocket. 

-  Wendy  L.  Bozeman,  Martinez,  Ga. 

As  fellow  students  can  attest,  having  Dr.  Shinn  for  a  class  or  merely  be- 
ing in  the  vicinity  was  an  adventure  in  learning.  He  knew  how  to  seize  the 
attention  spans  of  the  MTV  generation  and  offer  an  alternative  to  the  passive 
reception  of  information,  whether  on  TV  or  unfortunately  in  the  classroom. 

The  enthusiasm  and  excitement  about  learning  flowed  naturally  from 
Dr.  Shinn  to  the  many  students  he  touched  as  scholarship  and  rational  in- 
quiry were  taught  by  example.  He  awakened  minds,  loved  his  neighbor,  bore 
much  fruit  and  generally  raised  hell  in  the  process. 

There  is  much  to  be  said  about  the  many  creations  ot  Dr.  Shinn  that 
will  have  a  permanent  impact  on  expanding  the  quality  of  education  at 
UNCW,  but  his  impact  on  a  personal  level  has  been  felt  by  many  and  no 
doubt  spreads  as  far  as  his  many  former  students.

Alumni  house  gets  a  facelift 

Community  effort  draws 
hundreds  of  volunteers 


By  Teresa  A.  mcLamb 

Among  her  earliest  child- 
hood memories, 
Jessiebeth  Geddie  recalls 
her  family  proudly  reminding  her, 
"You  know,  your  grandfather  built 
the  walls  around  Wise  House  and 
Kenan  House." 

Even  though  he  died  in  the 
1930s,  long  before  Geddie  was 
born,  she  feels  he  would  be  proud 
of  the  role  his  granddaughter  is 
playing  in  the  restoration  of  Wise 
House  and  its  grounds.  As  chair- 
man of  the  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation, Geddie  is  involved  with 
approximately  1,000  volunteers 
who  are  planning  one  of  the  city's 
premiere  spring  events,  the  Wise 
House  Designers  Showcase,  April 
22  through  May  13. 

Backed  by  university  officials 
and  the  Friends  of  UNCW  in  con- 
junction with  the  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation, the  Designers  Showcase 
brings  together  the  university, 
business  and  volunteer  communi- 
ties and  notable  celebrities  for  a 
three-week,  multi-event,  celebra- 
tion of  the  grand  house  which  was 
donated  to' the  university  in  1969 
and  now  houses  the  offices  of 
Alumni  Relations. 

Events  include  daily  tours  of 
the  Designers  Showcase,  a  lecture 
and  luncheon  with  entertainment 
guru  Martha  Stewart  (see  sidebar), 
an  evening  of  art,  wine  and  cheese 
with  renowned  art  historian  Dr. 
Anthony  Janson,  a  gift  shop,  lunch 
in  a  specially  arranged  Tea  Room 
on  the  Wise  House  grounds,  raffle 
of  a  custom-made  playhouse  and 
much  more. 

The  goal  of  the  Designers 
Showcase  is  to  raise  $50,000  to- 
ward repayment  of  the  Alumni 


Association's 
$400,000  restoration 
loan  from  UCB. 

"We're  on  our 
second  year  of  this 
loan,  and  we've 
done  very  well  at 
fund  raising.  We 
thought  this  (show- 
case) was  some- 
thing all  of 
Wilmington  could 
participate  in,"  says 
Geddie.  Indeed,  it 
seems  that  perhaps 
all  of  Wilmington 
is  involved. 

In  mid-Febru- 
ary, 17  local  inte- 
rior design  firms 
began  transforming 
the  Neoclassical 
Revival  mansion 
for  the  showcase 
which  opens  to  the 
public  daily  from 
April  22  through 
May  13.  In  keeping 
with  the  elegant 
character  of  the 
house  and  its  mis- 
tress of  50  years,  a  gala  w 
cially  open  the  showcase  on 
Friday,  April  21.  Guests  will  be 
treated  to  a  cocktail  buffet  and 
musical  entertainment  as  well  as  a 
preview  tour  of  the  newly  deco- 
rated Wise  House. 

Because  each  room  will  be 
decorated  by  a  different  local  inte- 
rior designer,  from  paint  to  floor 
coverings  to  furniture,  the  array  of 
styles  and  creative  ideas  can  be  ex- 
pected to  be  vast. 

For  her  design  of  Miss  Jessie 
Wise's  bedroom,  for  example,  Ann 


UNCW  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  chats  with  Cherry 
Woodbury  (left},  Wise  House  events  coordinator,  and  Pat 
Corcoran,  Alumni  Relations  director,  in  front  Wise  Alumni 
House  which   17  local  designers  are  redecorating  this  spring.

W.  Combs  Interiors  hopes  to  create 
an  elegant  space  of  soft  and  muted 
colors  to  emphasize  the  peaceful 
nature  of  the  room. 

"I  want  this  to  be  a  classical 
type  room  with  traditional  over- 
tones, but  not  strictly  traditional," 
explains  Combs  of  her  plans.  Be- 
cause she  is  "interested  in  dress- 
maker details,"  Combs  plans 
extensive  use  of  fabric  including 
moire  for  the  bedspread  and  a  soft 
cotton  floral  for  draperies  and  up- 
holstered pieces. 

"There's  a  fireplace  which  is 


SPRING   95 


lovely"  and  will  he  adorned  with  fresh 
and  dried  arrangements,  she  said. 

Like  the  other  designers  in- 
volved in  the  project,  Combs  feels 
it  is  important  not  to  tie  the  decor 
to  any  particular  time  period  or  to 
try  to  match  what  may  have  been 
in  the  house  during  the  50  years 
Miss  Jessie  lived  there.  They  agree 
that  the  designs  should  comple- 
ment the  house,  but  should  also  be 
comfortable  and  livable.  Each  also 
describes  the  look  they  are  seeking 
as  "eclectic." 

Combs,  for  example,  plans  to 
make  use  of  French,  English  and 
traditional  pieces  in  antiques  and 
reproductions.  "I  wanted  to  do 
something  that  was  comfortable 
with  the  structure,"  she  said. 

Creating  a  feeling  of  fun  and 
creativity  is  the  goal  of  The 
Saucepan's  design  for  the  Wise 
House  pantry.  Elizabeth  Wright 
and  Jane  Martin  chose  wide-striped 
yellow  and  white  wallpaper  for  a 
light  and  airy  touch  to  the  pantry's 
long  hallway.  The  glass-doored 
pantry  shelving  will  be  painted, 
possibly  with  a  yellow  interior,  and 
stocked  with  food,  pottery  and 
other  items  from  the 
Chandler's  Wharf  kitchen 
shop. 

"We're  going  to  use  the 
barred  room"  where  Miss 
Jessie  stored  her  liquor  during 
Prohibition.  "We  think  people 
should  see  it,  it's  so  cute;  we'll 
paint  and  light  it.  We  want  it 
to  be  fun,"  Martin  commented 
about  the  project.  "Elizabeth 
and  I  have  a  grand  time  shop- 
ping at  the  market  and  looking 
at  pretty  things.  We  want  this 
to  be  creative  and  fun  and  to 
give  people  ideas  they  can  use." 

The  women  are  also  ex- 
cited about  being  part  of  such 
a  massive  community  effort. 
"We've  met  people  we  didn't 
know  before.  All  who  are 
working  on  the  show  want 
their  part  to  be  special,  not  for 
themselves,  but  so  that  they 
do  not  let  down  the  others. 
It's  wonderful  for  the  college," 
she  says,  referring  to  UNCW 


as  many  long-time  residents  do. 
"The  college  is  becoming  more  ol 
an  entity  in  this  community,  and  I 
think  we've  got  something  here  at 
the  Wise  House  that  we  can  be 
proud  of,"  Martin  said  to  explain 
their  involvement. 

The  Saucepan's  design  incor- 
porates pots  and  pans,  pottery  and 
other  utensils  which  can  be  taken 
directly  into  the  kitchen  and  used. 
They've  conferred  with  Cranford 
Coleman  Interiors  who  has  under- 
taken decoration  of  the  newly  mod- 
ernized kitchen  to  assure  that  the 
pantry's  design  complements  the 
kitchen's.  They're  also  seeking  a 
clean,  simple  look. 

"The  room  is  too  small  to  fuss 
it  up;  we  want  to  have  it  clean 
looking  ...  not  contemporary  and 
not  country,  but  more  eclectic.  A 
house  can  be  boring  it  you  make  it 
all  English  country  or  more  country 
or  whatever.  We  hope  it  looks  like 
someone's  collection:  pottery,  Ital- 
ian, Portuguese,  American,  pretty 
things,"  Martin  says. 

"We  don't  want  it  to  look  like 
a  store.  When  I  go  to  someone's 
home  I  like  to  look  at  what  they're 


Showcase  design  coordinator,  Suzanne  C.  Moss,  talks

collecting,  and  we  want  this  to  he 
that  kind  of  home,  where  you  col- 
lect pretty  things  which  are  used  as 
part  ot  your  lives  every  day." 

In  the  small  sitting  area  which 
is  believed  to  have  been  Miss 
Jessie's  favorite  room,  Dyneane's 
Designs  plans  a  "ladies  retreat  with 
warm  colors  to  complement  the 
marble  fireplace."  Dyneane  Dietz 
plans  to  use  a  fabric  with  large 
magnolia  blossoms  and  a  very  soft 
maize  color  on  the  walls  to  accom- 
plish coziness  and  warmth. 

"This  is  a  place  to  enjoy  quiet 
time  alone,"  says  Dietz.  She  envi- 
sions a  hooked  rug  on  the  floor. 
Dietz  plans  a  tea  table  set  tor  after- 
noon tea  as  well  as  a  skirted  table 
lined  with  family  photos  and  other 
items  "the  lady  of  the  house  would 
like  to  have  around  her  in  a  room 
that  she  spent  a  lot  ot  time  in." 

These  designers  and  the  others 
donating  their  time  and  services 
are  responsible  for  all  the  work  that 
goes  into  the  room  as  well  as  the 
restoration  of  it  to  its  original  con- 
dition, it  needed,  says  Cherry 
Woodbury,  Wise  House  events  co- 
ordinator. 

Dietz  points  out  that  de- 
signers are  getting  help  from 
other  sources  who  are  donat- 
ing time  and  services:  the 
flowers,  tor  example.  Bouquets 
Ltd.  partners  Louise  Gorham 
and  Marie  Kahn,  along  with 
Linda  Nance,  are  donating 
their  expertise  to  floral  designs 
throughout  Wise  House  as 
well  as  donating  the  finished 
arrangements  tor  the  Martha 
Stewart  luncheon. 

"We're  a  small  business," 
says  Gorham,  "but  we  want  to 
continue  our  volunteer  in- 
volvement." 

Volunteer  commitment 
and  enthusiasm  at  its  pinnacle 
is  what  the  Designers  Show- 
case may  represent.  At  the 
[      center  is  Friends  of  UNCW, 
"people  in  the  community 
who  are  not  alumni  but  who 
care  about  the  university  and 
want  to  make  it  better,"  says 
its  president,  Connie  Parker.

Showcase  to  star 
Martha  Stewart 


Former  Wall  Street  stockbroker  turned  lifestyle  mogul,  Martha 
Stewart  will  appear  at  UNCW  in  conjunction  with  Wise  House 
Designers  Showcase.  In  her  only  North  Carolina  appearance  of  1995, 
Stewart  will  be  guest  at  a  luncheon  April  27  followed  by  an  hour-long 
lecture  she  calls  "Entertaining  with  Style." 

Stewart's  unique 
hands-on  approach  to 
carefree  yet  elegant  liv- 
ing has  earned  her  a 
dedicated  following 
through  her  weekly  na- 
tional television  series 
"Martha  Stewart  Liv- 
ing" and  the  magazine 
of  the  same  name.  In 
December,  she 

launched  her  newest 
magazine  Martha  Stew- 
art Living  Weddings. 

Stewart's  first  book 
Entertaining  in  1982  was 
quickly  followed  by 
cookbooks,  wedding 
planners,  decorating 
and  gardening  books. 
The  menu  for  her  sold- 

out  luncheon  appearance,  catered  by  ARA,  will  be  from  her  own 
cookbooks  and  will  feature  pork,  a  locally  important  product. 

Sponsored  by  the  UNCW  Alumni  Association  and  the  Friends  of 
UNCW,  Stewart's  appearance  is  appropriate  to  the  Designer  Show- 
case which  emphasizes  the  many  ways  home  space  can  be  treated. 
Stewart's  body  of  work  includes  instructional  videos,  two  of  which  are 
also  appropriate  to  Showcase  activities:  "Renovating  with  Style"  and 
"Decorative  Finishes."  These  were  released  with  the  publication  of 
the  book  New  Old  House  in  1992. 

Tickets  to  Stewart's  lecture,  at  2  p.m.  in  Kenan  Auditorium,  are 
available  through  the  box  office  at  (910)  395-3500. 

Thanks  to  generous  underwriting  by  Harris  Teeter,  North  Caro- 
lina Pork  Producers  Association,  Rainbow  Bay  Crafts  and  the  Ocean 
Princess  Inn  at  Kure  Beach,  substantial  proceeds  from  Stewart's 
appearance  will  go  toward  repayment  of  the  Alumni  Association's 
$400,000  renovation  loan  with  United  Carolina  Bank.

"We  support  it  through  gifts 
and  contributions  which  can  be  uti- 
lized in  areas  where  funding  is  not 
available."  With  a  board  of  30  and 
general  membership  of  about  200, 
the  Friends  have  established  grants 
and  scholarships  for  the  university. 

When  approached  about  taking 
on  the  Showcase  as  a  fund-raiser, 
the  Friends  were  excited  about  the 
prospect,  Parker  says.  They  imme- 
diately planned  to  involve  other 
community  organizations,  taking 
advantage  of  the  tremendous  pool 
of  volunteer  talent  in  Wilmington. 
Various  chairmen  were  selected 
from  within  the  Friends  who  then 
selected  others  from  the  community 
to  help. 

"Volunteers  poured  in  from  ev- 
erywhere," says  Parker.  "This  is  the 
first  major  undertaking  we've  de- 
cided to  do  because  of  the  support 
of  the  Alumni  Association,  and  our 
members  feel  strongly  about  it.  Our 
board  has  members  from  Junior 
Sorosis,  North  Carolina  Sorosis, 
Junior  League  and  the  Wilmington 
Women's  Club.  They  put  volun- 
teers in  from  the  beginning,  then 
their  contacts  brought  in  other 
people.  I  get  calls  every  other  day 
from  someone  who  wants  to  help." 

Among  groups  and  individuals 
who  have  volunteered  to  host  and 
assist  with  the  Designers  Showcase 
are  the  Medical  Auxiliary,  Great 
Oaks  Garden  Club,  Oleander  Gar- 
den Club,  American  Association  of 
University  Women,  the  Pilot  Club, 
University  Women  from  UNCW, 
Association  of  Retired  Faculty  of 
UNCW,  Links  Organization,  New- 
comers Club  and  senior  citizens. 

"We  thought  that  this  might 
happen,"  says  Parker,  "but  it  was 
really  nice  to  see  it.  I'm  just  con- 
cerned that  someone  might  have 
called  to  volunteer  and  may  have 
been  accidentally  left  out." 

Another  organization  assisting 
with  the  Designers  Showcase  is  the 
Cape  Fear  Garden  Club  which  do- 
nated $6,000  for  the  restoration  of 
the  Wise  House's  sunken  garden.

Haskell  have  begun  preliminary 
work  to  bring  the  garden  to  life. 
Plans  include  annuals,  boxwood 
and  maybe  an  ornamental  piece  for 
the  center.  New  stonework  based 
on  architectural  planning  has  been 
added;  no  old  photos  of  the  garden 
have  been  found. 

A  number  of  special  events  will 
be  held  in  conjunction  with  the 
Showcase. 

Next  door  in  Kenan  House,  the 
university  will  display  once  again 
Young  Woman  Defending  Herself 
Against  Eros  (1880),  perhaps  the 
best  work  by  the  most  prominent 
French  salon  painter  of  the  mid-  to 
late- 19th  century,  William 
Bouguereau  ( 1825-1905).  This 
painting,  which  has  been  on  loan 
to  the  N.C.  Museum  of  Art,  and 
others  currently  hanging  in  Kenan 
House  will  be  discussed  by  Dr.  An- 
thony Janson,  former  curator  of  the 
Museum  of  Art  and  visiting  profes- 
sor at  UNCW,  during  "Art,  Wine 
&  Cheese,"  on  Thursday,  May  1 1 . 

"They  all  aspired  to  a  classical 
style  reminiscent  of  Raphael,  but 
none  looked  like  Raphael,  so  they 
practiced  a  19th  century  version  of 
a  classical  style,"  says  Dr.  Janson, 
whose  newest  revision  of  his  late 
father's  definitive  History  of  Art 
was  published  earlier  this  year. 
"This  is  actually  one  of 
Bouguereau's  most  delightful  paint- 
ings. It's  lighthearted,  but  not  in  a 
silly  way.  It's  quite  charming." 

The  painting  originally  came 
to  Kenan  House  as  a  gift  from  Mary 
Lily  Kenan  Flagler  to  her  sister, 
Sarah  Graham  Kenan,  who  had 
admired  it.  It  was  donated  to 
UNCW  along  with  the  house  in 
1969  and  is  still  owned  by  the  uni- 
versity which  loaned  the  work  to 
the  N.C.  Museum  of  Art  in  1993 
with  Janson's  help. 

"1  can  tell  you,  it  is  one  of  the 
most  popular  paintings  now  on 
view  in  the  museum,"  he  adds. 

Organizers  of  the  Wise  House 
Designers  Showcase  hope  there'll 
be  something  for  almost  everyone 
in  the  many  other  events  planned. 
A  "gorgeous  playhouse,"  built  by 
alumni  Jim  Farlow  and  John  Pol- 


lard of  materials  donated  by  Lowe's 
Stores  Inc.  of  Wilmington,  is  being 
raffled  at  the  Showcase.  Geddie  says 
the  house,  which  has  a  bay  window 
and  dormers,  can  be  viewed  behind 
Wise  House. 

Also  behind  the  house,  in  the 
Carriage  House  and  garage  will  be  a 
gift  shop  with  wares  from  several 
local  gift  and  variety  shops  includ- 
ing A  Proper  Garden,  Abigails, 
Temptations,  the  Sterling  House 
and  possibh  I  he  I  ishei  man's  \\  ife 
and  the  Red  Dinette.  Prints  of  the 
Wise  House  watercolor  by  Gladys 
Faris  will  be  on  sale  as  will 
notecards  of  the  same  design. 

"We'll  have  cookbooks,  grand- 
parents books  and  much  more," 
says  Geddie. 

For  those  who  want  to  spend 
a  leisurely  day  touring  the  house, 
lunch  will  be  available  in  a  spe- 
cially created  Tea  Room,  actually 
a  big  white  tent  in  the  backyard 
of  the  house.  ARA,  which  pro- 
vides food  service  for  the  univer- 
sity, will  cater  gourmet  boxed 
lunches  for  the  event  each  day 
except  Sunday  when,  Woodbury 
says,  a  traditional  Southern  fam- 
ily-style lunch  is  planned. 

Even  more  events,  such  as 
bridal  and  herb  workshops,  are  in 
the  planning  stages  and  will  be  an- 
nounced through  the  media. 


While  the  Designers  Showcase 
is  an  important  fund  raiser  for  the 
Alumni  Association,  it  may  be  an 
even  more  importan!  introduction 
of  the  Wise  House  to  the  local 
community.    The  house  is  much 
more  than  an  office  space  for 
Alumni  Relations.  It  is  a  cultural 
treasure,  rich  in  stones  of  a  gener- 
ous mistress  and  a  gracious  style  of 
living.  It  is  also  an  architectural 
treasure  with  the  dominant  ionic 
columns,  the  rich  wood  paneling, 
marble  mantels  and  prominent 
stained  glass  window. 

1 1  is  also  a  house  for  t  he 
community. 

"The  university  wants  to  share- 
Wise  House  with  the  community," 
says  Woodbury.  "It  is  ideal  for 
graduation  parties,  reunions,  wed- 
dings, just  as  it  is  for  alumni  func- 
tions and  the  foundation  board 
meetings." 

The  renovated  modern  kitchen 
and  two  handicap  access  bathrooms 
on  the  first  floor  combine  modern 
with  the  charm  of  the  old.  With  its 
elegant  sun  porch,  long  staircase 
and  second-story  balcony,  the 
house  is  indeed  ideal  tor  formal  and 
informal  functions. 

The  invitation  has  been  issued. 
Now  is  the  time  to  reserve  your 
ticket  to  visit  the  community's 
newest  home.

UNCW      Magazine 


By  Robin  Hamm 

While  it's  no  secret 
UNCW's  reputation  is 
growing,  at  least  one 
area  official  thinks  that  hosting  the 
1995  NCAA  Women's  Golf  Cham- 
pionships will  put  the  university  in 
the  "big  leagues."  This  will  be  the 
first-ever  NCAA  Division  1  cham- 
pionship to  be  held  in  Wilmington. 

The  National  Collegiate  Ath- 
letic Association  Women's  Golf 
Championships  began  in  1982  and 
is  the  most  prestigious  collegiate 
women's  tournament  in  the  coun- 
try. UNCW  was  honored  to  be  se- 
lected as  host  of  the  1995  NCAA 
Women's  Golf  Championships, 
May  2  1-27,  which  will  draw  the  top 
102  collegiate  women  golfers  in  the 
nation. 


The  NCAA  only  gives  this  op- 
portunity to  outstanding  schools 
which  have  met  certain  levels  of 
achievement  in  specified  areas. 
The  NCAA  focuses  on  graduation 
rates  of  athletes  in  an  NCAA  pro- 
gram and  high  academic  eligibility 
standards  toi  athletes.  In  a  1  994  re- 
port the  UNCW  graduation  rate 
for  athletes  was  76  percent  (over  a 
six-year  period). 

"It  is  cer- 
tainly an  honor," 
UNCW  women's 
golf  coach  Jan 
Mann  said  of 
hosting  the  tour- 
nament. 

It  will  feature 
the  top  18 


women's  collegiate  golf  teams  in 
the  country  as  well  as  some  indi- 
vidual qualifiers. 

"These  players  are  the  cream  of 
the  crop,"  Mann  said.  "Many  of 
them  have  the  potential  to  go  on 
to  professional  careers  in  golf."  She 
believes  that  several  of  the  young 
women  who  will  be  playing,  such  as 
Wendy  Ward  of  Arizona  State  Uni- 
versity, have  Ladies  Professional 
Golf  Association  (LPGA)  potential. 

Joe  Browning,  UNCW's  sports 
information  director,  has  compiled 
a  list  of  prospective  teams  expected 
to  attend  the  tournament  in  May. 
The  following  list  is  based  on  those 
teams  participating  in  NCAA  tour- 
naments over  the  past  five  years  as 
well  as  current  statistics.

Mann,  who  is  only  the  second 
coach  for  the  Lady  Seahawks  since 
the  program  began  in  1978,  has 
had  a  major  role  in  organizing  the 
tournament.  She  feels  that  it  will 
he  very  instrumental  in  recruiting 
and  promotion  of    the  UNCW 
golf  program. 

UNCW's  women  golfers  will 
not  be  playing  in  the  tournament; 
however,  the  team  will  play  a  vital 
role  by  assisting  the  visiting  play- 
ers. Freshman  Nicolle  Flood  of 
Gloversville,  N.Y.,  who  has  already 
made  an  impact  on  the  Lady  Sea- 
hawks  as  UNCW's  top  finisher  in 
all  but  one  of  the  fall  tournaments, 
says  she  feels 
UNCW's  team  can 
learn  from  this  ex- 
perience. Since 
UNCW  is  still  a 
young  team,  Flood 
believes,  "Hosting 
the  NCAA  tour- 
nament will  give 
us  the  experience 
we'll  need  to  be- 
come future  con- 
tenders." 

Paul  Miller, 
UNCW  director  of 


athletics,  said  the  tournament  is 
one  of  the  most  exciting  things  to 
happen  to  UNCW's  athletic  de- 
partment. 

"It  btings  great  notoriety  to 
our  campus,"  Miller  said.  "One 
million  dollars  in  advertising 
couldn't  buy  the  exposure  the  uni- 
versity will  receive  from  hosting 
this  golt  tournament." 

Participating  universities  seem 
to  be  just  as  excited  about  Wilm- 
ington's hosting  the  tournament  as 
UNCW  officials.  When  Miller  met 
with  participating  university  ad- 
ministrators during  the  preview 
tournament  hosted  in  the  fall  he 
observed,  "They  were  ecstatic 
about  the  tournament."  Many  of 
them  had  attended  or  heard  of  the 
great  success  at  the  Northern 
Telecom  National  Collegiate 
Women's  Golf  Invitational  hosted 
by  UNCW  in  November. 

Miller  said  the  community  has 
been  especially  supportive  of  the 
tournament.  There  will  be  at  least 
150  volunteers  for  concessions, 
traffic  control,  ticket  sales,  general 
information  and  othet  services. 

"The  community  has  rallied 
around  UNCW  (for  the  tourna- 
ment)," Miller  says,  "They're  so 
excited  about  helping."  Nettie 
McKenney,  the  volunteer  chair, 
has  had  an  overwhelming  re- 
sponse from  volunteers.  Miller 
says,  "The  fact  that  a  prestigious 
club  like  Landfall  has  volunteered 
its  course  is  indicative  of  the

community  s  support. 

As  for  the  city  of  Wilmington, 
it  can  expect  plenty  of  visitors.  The 
tournament  will  provide  just  an- 
other great  excuse  for  inlanders  to 
get  away  to  Wilmington's  beautiful 
coast  for  Memorial  Day  weekend.

is  also  expected 
to  draw  a  crowd 
of  first-time  visi- 
tors especially 
with  the  added 
prestige  of 
Landfall's  in- 
volvement. 

"This  tour- 
nament will 

bring  people  from  all  over  the 
country,"  Donna  Cameron,  tourna- 
ment directot,  says.  "It  gives  Wilm- 
ington the  opportunity  to  be 
showcased  and  will  bring  national 
prominence  to  southeastern  North 
Carolina." 

Cameron,  who  organized  the 
successful  Golf  Invitational  in  No- 
vember, is  expecting  approxi- 
mately 500  people  a  day  to  attend 
the  tournament,  but  she  hopes  to 
have  more. 

"We  invite  all  alumni  to  come 
share  in  this  exciting  event,"  Cam- 
eron says.  "There  will  be  an  alumni 
heade]uarters  where  alumni  from  all 
schools  will  have  a  chance  to 
mingle  and  meet  the  players." 

Sporting  events  are  an  excel- 
lent tactic  for  a  town  to  receive  na- 
tional exposure.  Connie  Majure, 
executive  director 
of  the  Greater 
Wilmington  Cham- 
ber of  Commerce, 
points  out  that 
Wilmington  will 
benefit  from  that 
exposure. 

Dr.  William 
Hall,  director  of  the 
UNCW  Center  for 
Business  and  Eco- 
nomics Services, 
has  calculated  that 
the  tournament  will

bring  a  minimum  of  a  half 
million  dollars  into 
Wilmington's  economy  in 
eight  days. 

There  is  also  the  image 
aspect  to  consider. 

"The  fact  that  the  uni- 
versity is  hosting  the  tourna- 
ment puts  UNCW  in  the  big 
leagues,"  said  Majure. 

The  tournament  will  be 
nationally  televised  on  Prime 
Sports  Network  which  will 
give  Wilmington  an  unsolic- 
ited good  critique.  "This  isn't 
like  an  advertisement  we 
would  produce  to  promote 
Wilmington  ...  this  is  the 
kind  of  coverage  we  couldn't  buy," 
says  Majure,  because  it's  coming 
from  a  national  outside  source. 

Landfall  is  another  reason  why 
the  NCAA  selected  Wilmington  as 
the  sight  of  the  tournament.  Ac- 
cording to  Coach  Mann,  "The  fa- 
cility is  an  excellent  site  for  a 
championship  tournament." 

The  community  will  be  closing 
its  Pete  Dye  Course  for  the  entire 
week  of  the  tournament.  However, 
the  Nicklaus  Course  will  still  be

Though  members  of  Landfall  may 
miss  playing  on  the  course,  they  are 
pleased  to  have  the  opportunity  to 
host  the  NCAA  tournament. 

"The  community  is  excited 
about  having  the  tournament.  All  of 
our  Landfall  members  and  residents 
are  ready  to  assist  the  tournament  in 
any  way  possible,"  Landfall  general 
manager  Gary  Doyle  says.  He 
pointed  out  they  have  received  only 
positive  responses  from  all  over  east- 
ern North  Carolina. 

Landfall  is  also  donat- 
ing its  billboard  overlook- 
ing the  riverfront  in 
downtown  Wilmington  to 
promote  the  tournament. 
Landfall  will  obviously  gain 
national  attention  for  its 
role  in  the  tournament, 
however,  Doyle  claims 
that's  not  their  reason  for 
volunteering  their  facilities. 
"We  are  truly  looking  at 
this  as  a  community-wide  ef- 
fort," says  Doyle.  "Landfall  is 
offering  its  course  to  serve 
the  community  as  a  good 
citizen."  Russ  Miller,  director 
of  golf;  Gary  Smither,  direc- 
tor of  golf  course  operations; 
and  Margot  Abramovitch, 
Landfall  coordinator,  will  be 
working  in  conjunction 
with  UNCW  to  plan  the 
tournament.

Sunday,  May  21.  The  clinic, 
headed  by  Coach  Mann  and  led 
by  volunteer  coaches  and  players, 
will  involve  120  Wilmington-area 
children  and  their  parents.  The 
clinic  is  held  at  each  NCAA 
tournament  event  to  educate 
children  about  athletics,  disci- 
pline and  nutrition. 

The  cost  of  admission  to  the 
tournament  is  $5  daily  or  $12  for  a 
tournament  pass.  Parking  has  not 
yet  been  decided,  but  a  free  shuttle 
to  and  from  the  course  will  be  pro- 
vided by  UNCW.  Tickets  will  be 
sold  in  advance  and  at  the  shuttle 
stations.  Ticket  information  and

ALUMNI    PROFILE 


All  the  world 
is  a  textbook 
for  this  alum 

by  Shannon  vano 

"She  is  my  all-time  favorite  teacher." 

"She  makes  learning  fun ." 

"She'll  do  anything  to  help  you  out." 


w 


ho  could  this  be,  you 
ask?  Why  it  is  none 
other  than  UNCW 


alumna  Richelle  Bragg  Dombroski. 

Dombroski,  a  Wilmington  na- 
tive, graduated  from  UNCW  in  1984 
with  a  bachelor  of  arts  degree  in  his- 
tory and  teaching  certification. 

As  a  student  at  UNCW,  she 
worked  in  the  Development  Office 
for  three  years.  While  there,  she 
helped  set  up  the  Ambassadors  Pro- 
gram that  is  still  active  on  campus. 

"Richelle  was  very  instrumental 
in  doing  the  research  for  the  Ambas- 
sadors Program  and  getting  it  started. 
She  is  a  very  determined  worker," 
Patsy  Larrick  of  University  Advance- 
ment recalled. 

Her  determination  proved  to  be 
essential  in  acquiring  her  first  job  at 
Williston  Junior  High  School  in 
Wilmington.  There  she  taught 
eighth  and  ninth  grade  North  Caro- 
lina history  and  civics  and  coached 
cheerleading. 

In  1987,  after  just  two  years  on 
the  job,  she  was  one  of  five  teachers 
selected  for  a  month  of  special  train- 
ing with  the  National  Geographic 
Society  in  Washington,  D.C.  With 
58  other  teachers  from  across  the 
country,  Dombroski  learned  how  to 
teach  geography  and  incorporate  it 
into  a  social  studies  program.  One 
year  later,  she  was  hired  as  a  geogra- 
phy teacher  at  Laney  High  School. 

That  was  where  Dombroski 
started  a  geography  program  called 
"Geo  Teaching." 

"It  is  the  one  lesson  that  stu- 
dents ask  me  about  the  first  day  of 


Richelle  Bragg  Dombroski  '84  leads  a  geography  lesson  at  Laney  High  School   She 
has  received  notional  recognition  for  her  innovative  teaching  methods 


class  because  former  students  have 
discussed  the  experience,"  she  says. 

Her  high  school  students  design 
and  teach  geography  lessons  to  el- 
ementary students  in  grades  K-5. 

"This  lesson  promotes  coopera- 
tion among  high  school  and  elemen- 
tary students  and  increases 
appreciation  of  our  global  society. 
This  project  encourages  leader- 
ship roles  among  students," 
Dombroski  says. 

"Geo  Teaching,"  along  with 
many  other  innovative  lessons 
Dombroski  teaches,  helped  her  win 
the  State  Farm  Good  Neighbor 
Award  in  1994,  which  brought  her 
national  recognition  for  her  teach- 
ing of  geography.  State  Farm  looks 
for  teachers  from  all  levels  of  pri- 
mary and  secondary  education  who 
are  innovators  in  their  field  and 
who  are  dedicated  to  furthering  ex- 
cellence in  teaching. 

State  Farm  honors  each  winning 
teacher  with  a  $5,000  contribution 
to  the  educational  institution  of  his 
or  her  choice,  along  with  a  presenta- 
tion of  the  award  at  a  school  board 
meeting  in  each  teacher's  town.  In 
addition  to  providing  broad-based 
recognition  of  Good  Neighbor 
Award  recipients,  State  Farm  runs 
national  print  advertising  which  fea- 


tures each  teacher  and  the  innova- 
tion for  which  that  teacher  is  being 
honored.  Dombroski  was  featured 
with  several  other  recipients  in 
National  Geographic  magazine.  The 
ad  included  her  picture  as  well  as  a 
description  of  her  accomplishment. 

The  $5,000  Dombroski  was 
awarded  from  State  Farm  went  to 
Laney  High  School  where  she  is  still 
teaching.  With  this  money,  Laney 
was  able  to  purchase  a  modem  to 
hook  up  to  Dombroski's  computer  in 
her  classroom.  This  allows 
Dombroski's  students  to  communi- 
cate with  other  students  around 
the  world. 

"The  publicity  for  Laney  has 
been  wonderful.  This  award  was  great 
for  the  school,"  Dombroski  says. 

Dombroski's  record  speaks  for 
itself  through  national  awards  and 
recognition,  but  she  has  also  re- 
ceived special  appreciation  from 
her  students. 

One  of  her  students,  Ben  Stout, 
a  senior  and  student  assistant  in  her 
world  geography  class,  says,  "Mrs. 
Dombroski  is  the  best  teacher  I've 
ever  had." 

Mandy  McKoy,  also  a  senior, 
adds,  "She  gave  me  a  new  concept 
of  not  only  teaching,  but  learning 
as  well."

Jarman  turns  animation 
into  art  with  computers 


By  Karey  Garland 

For  most  people,  sitting  in 
front  of  a  computer  is  like 
punching  a  tedious  nine-to- 
five  time  clock.  For  computer  ani- 
mator, Joey  Jarman,  he  says,  "It's 
like  playing  God." 

A  New  Bern  native,  Jarman 
came  to  UNCW  for  what  he 
called  "more  individualized  learn- 
ing" in  computer  science,  only  to 
carry  this  highly  attractive  quality 
into  his  own  life  as  he  founded 
J&.K  Graphics  in  1989.  With  a 
talent  and  fascination  for  com- 
puters and  conventional  art  since 
age  12,  Jarman  established  a 
graphics  company  specializing  in 
three-  dimensional  computerized 
animation. 

As  an  adolescent,  computer 
interest  peaked  for  Jarman  when 


his  father's  knowledge  of  what  he 
calls  "circuitry,  schematics  and 
building  things  from  scratch"  be- 
came his  own.  From  there,  it  was 
his  first  computer  then  formal 
training  from  some  of  his  favorite 
UNCW  professors,  Dr.  James  Nel- 
son and  Dr.  Fletcher  Norris.  All  it 
took  were  a  few  clients  to  come  to 
him  just  six  months  before  gradua- 
tion for  Jarman's  hobby  of  arts  and 
graphics  to  become  a  business  that 
he  says  "just  kind  of  snowballed." 

He  joined  forces  with  another 
UNCW  graduate,  Penny  N. 
Kirkley  '88,  to  form  J&K  Graphics. 
Kirkley  handles  sales  and  market- 
ing and  other  business-related 
matters  for  the  firm. 

Impressed  and  inspired  by  stop 
animation  films  like  "The  Night- 


mare Before  Christmas,"  Jarman 
sits  at  his  work  station  in  the  base- 
ment of  the  First  Union  high-rise 
in  downtown  Wilmington,  hoping 
to  find  time  to  make  his  own  short 
animated  films.  Before  him,  one  of 
his  many  television  screens  displays 
the  virtual  reality  of  an  auditorium 
he  created  for  George  Lucas's  film 
"Radioland  Murders." 

Jarman  said  his  biggest  and 
most  challenging  project  was  when 
he  turned  geometrical  equations 
into  an  auditorium  with  pie-shaped 
rooms  and  used  cubes,  spheres,  cal- 
culus and  physics  to  create  charac- 
ters that  "fall  to  their  death." 
"Radioland"  was  just  one  instance 
where  Jarman  sat  in  front  of  a  com- 
puter until  three  o'clock  in  the 
morning  "playing  God." 


SPRING   95

An  experience  he  refers  to  is 
bringing  life  to  an  abstract  idea  like 
"Man's  Frailty  on  Earth."  This  was 
a  storyline  for  one  of  Jarman's 
former  projects. 

For  as  much  math  as  Jarman 
runs  across  everyday,  writing  plays 
a  role  in  his  creativity  as  well:  "I've 
been  concentrating  on  storyline  for 
the  last  couple  of  years,  using  ab- 
stract objects  to  represent  people 
for  the  storytelling." 

This  is  what  makes  Jarman's 
work  well  rounded.  He  can  talk 
numbers,  upgrade  and  maintain  his 
own  hard-  and  software,  and  still 
make  his  words  as  life-like  as  the 
three-dimensional  objects  on  his 
computer  screen. 

With  such  a  profile,  it's  hard  to 
believe  Jarman's  original  intentions 
were  in  computer  programming. 

"Starting  my  own  business  was 
not  what  I  intended  to  do,"  Jarman 
says.  "People  told  me  I  was  crazy. 


Among  J&.K  Graphic's  other 
projects  are  a  60-second  commer- 
cial promoting  UNCW,  a  15-sec- 
ond  animation  that  opened  up  a 
South  Carolina  hockey  team's 
game,  animated  logos  for  com- 
mercials, recycling  commercials 
and  cataloging  some  150  personal 
project  ideas.  All  this,  and 
Jarman  is  still  hoping  to  make  his 
own  computer-animated  film  in 
time  to  meet  an  April  deadline 
tor  the  industry's  largest  conven- 
tion in  August. 

Also,  because  of  the  top-qual- 
ity work  that  J&.K  Graphics  pro- 
vides, Jarman  says  that  Lucas  has 
asked  for  his  help  for  future  "Star 
Wars"  ventures,  and  an  agent  has 
contacted  him  about  doing  anima- 
tion tor  openings  shows  for  the  en- 
tire East  Coast  hockey  league. 

As  an  animator,  Jarman  ad- 
mits that  his  work  may  be  associ- 
ated with  the  software  he  uses  and 
the  fact  that  his  equipment  is 
"among  the  best  in  the  world 
as  far  as  output  right  now," 
but  he  says  that  is  not  what 
makes  his  computer  anima- 
tions so  impressive. 

"Animation  is  about 
bringing  something  to  life," 
he  says.  "It's  the  way  it  moves 
that  makes  you  believe  that  it 
is  alive.  If  it's  unnatural,  it 
doesn't  make  you  believe." 

Therefore,  Jarman  con- 
cludes that  "it's  not  the  soft- 
ware" a  graphic  artist  must 
have,  "it's  an  eye  for  motion 
and  how  things  work  to- 
gether." He  must  study  move- 
ment and  use  his  computer, 
which  Jarman  refers  to  as  "an 
electronic  paintbrush"  in  or- 
der to  make  mathematical  cal- 
culations come  to  life.  It  isn't 
easy,  as  Jarman  tells  about 
how  the  animators  for  "Juras- 
sic Park"  pretended  to  be  di- 
nosaurs, "snooping  around," 
so  they  could  bring  existence 
to  the  extinct. 

But,  much  of  what  Jarman      UNCW  alumni  Joey  Jarman  is  practically  surrounded  by 
creates  has  never  lived.  to  turn  equations  into  artwork. 


They  told  me  to  go  work  for 
somebody  else."  In  starting  J&.K 
Graphics,  Jarman  says  he  even 
thought  about  what  he  would  do 
"if  the  bottom  tell  out."  But,  the 
bottom  is  nowhere  to  be  found  tor 
J&.K;  only  the  top. 

Jarman  refers  to  himself  as 
"kind  of  a  one-man  band"  who 
has  been  offered  big  things  by 
"animation  houses  around  the 
country."  But  bigger  doesn't  nec- 
essarily mean  better.  Jarman 
prides  J&.K  Graphics  on  being 
able  to  provide  his  clients  with 
more  personalized  service  and 
those  "added  touches  they  didn't 
expect."  Jarman  admits  he  goes 
"overboard  to  give  'em  that  MTV 
look,  ESPN  look  or  whatever  else 
it  is  they  want." 

Clearly,  Joey  Jarman  is  an  in- 
novator who  firmly  believes  there 
is  more  to  life  than,  as  he  says, 
"having  the  most  toys  when  you  die."

One  of  life's  big  challenges 


How  to  pay  the  college  tuition  bills 


By  Sue  Cause 

If  you  would  rather  suffer 
through  two  root  canals 
and  back  surgery  than 
confront  the  process  of  fi- 
nancing your  child's  college 
education,  you  probably 
aren't  alone.  The  thought 
of  coming  up  with 
a  minimum  of 
$30,000  is 
enough  to 
make  most 
parents  break  out 
in  a  cold  sweat. 

College  tuition  costs  continue  to 
spiral  upwards  with  no  ceiling  in 
sight.  How  to  pay  for  a  college  edu- 
cation is  one  of  the  most  weighty 
challenges  facing  families  today. 

But,  it  is  a  surmountable  chal- 
lenge, as  advice  and  help  abound.  So 
do  sources  for  financial  assistance  - 
whether  you  start  saving  the  day  your 
child  is  born  or  begin  looking  at  fi- 
nancing programs  during  your  child's 
senior  year  in  high  school. 

Under  ideal  conditions,  a  family 
begins  saving  as  soon  as  it  can  by  es- 
tablishing some  kind  of  college  edu- 
cation account. 

"It's  never  too  early  to  start.  It 
could  be  Zero  Coupons  starting  as 
early  as  newborns,"  says  Cheryl 
Hunter  '89,  a  registered  sales  assis- 
tant with  Dean  Witter  Reynolds 
Inc.  in  Wilmington.  "If  you  start  in- 
vesting when  your  child  is  really 
young,  even  if  you  just  put  up  $100 
a  month  or  a  quarter,  you  can  build 
up  a  good  financial  backing  for  a 
college  education." 

Government-backed  Zero  Cou- 
pon Treasury  STRIPS  (Separate 
Trading  of  Registered  Interest  and 
Principal  Securities)  are  a  popular 
savings  vehicle  for  college  educations. 

"Their  main  advantage  is  safety 
because  they  are  a  government-re- 
lated security.  They  tend  to  be  liquid; 
they  are  ready  when  you  are;  and  you 
can  work  them  into  your  plan  with 


different 
maturities,"  Hunter  says. 

Setting  up  a  custodial  account  to 
hold  your  child's  assets  until  he  or 
she  reaches  college  age  is  often  advised. 
Custodial  accounts  are  established 
under  the  Uniform  Gifts  to  Minors 
Act  or  the  Uniform  Transfers  to 
Minor  Act  and  may  be  established 
through  financial  institutions  or 
investment  firms.  The  account  al- 
lows investment  income  to  be  taxed 
at  the  child's  income  rate  rather  than 
at  the  working  adult's  income  level. 

A  variety  of  investment  vehicles, 
such  as  stocks,  bonds,  CDs  and  Zero 
Coupons,  may  be  placed  in  a  custo- 
dial account,  but  certain  kinds  of 
high  risk  investments,  such  as  op- 
tions, may  not  be  part  of  the  account, 
notes  Hunter. 

A  parent  may  place  up  to 
$10,000  a  year  in  a  child's  custo- 
dial account  without  getting  into 
tax  consequences,  adds  Hunter, 
and  grandparents  may  also  estab- 
lish an  account. 

If  saving  for  a  college  education 
is  not  an  option,  there  are  other  ways  to 
take  the  sting  out  of  the  cost  of  tuition. 

"In  my  household,  we  don't  save 
for  college.  We  go  out  and  finance 
it,"  says  Doug  Johnson,  associate  di- 
rector of  admissions  at  UNCW.  And, 
if  parents  balk  at  diat  notion,  Johnson 
likens  it  to  financing  a  new  car. 


"I  always  tell  parents,  especially 
those  considering  UNCW,  to  look  at 

the  car  you  are  driving.  Basically, 
the  college  education  is 
leaper  than  your  car,  so  if 
you  can  afford  that  car, 
you  can  afford  to  pay 
for  your  child's  edu- 
cation," he  says. 
Several  busi- 
nesses help  families 
finance  college  costs 
trough  level  monthly  pay- 
ments, and  many  colleges  work 
with  a  specific  firm  or  offer  their 
own  payment  plan.  UNCW  has  a 
contract  with  AMS  (Academic 
Management  Services). 

"I  really  recommend  the  AMS 
plan  for  someone  who  hasn't  saved. 
You  just  don't  buy  a  car  during  the 
time  your  child  is  going  to  school, 
and  you  make  sure  your  car  is  paid 
off,"  says  Johnson.  "Of  course,  not 
everyone  can  do  that,  but  it's  a  lot 
easier  than  having  to  come  up  with 
$1,500  ot  $3,400  at  one  time." 

A  payment  plan  may  be  used  in 
conjunction  with  other  financial 
aid,  notes  Peter  D'Annibale, 
UNCW's  director  of  financial  aid. 
The  amount  of  financial  aid  would 
be  applied  to  the  student's  bill,  and 
the  remainder  would  be  financed 
through  the  payment  plan. 

Another  popular  financing  op- 
tion is  a  home  equity  line  of  credit  or 
an  equity  line  of  credit  from  a  bank. 

"The  home  equity  line  of  credit 
is  a  great  way  to  borrow  because  it 
allows  a  lot  of  flexibility  in  how  you 
advance  the  funds,"  says  Paul 
McCombie  '86,  vice  president  for 
Wachovia  Bank  in  Wilmington. 
"The  bank  sets  up  a  certain  line  of 
credit  based  on  your  personal  cash 
flow  and  the  equity  that  you  have  in 
your  home,  and  you  could  advance 
up  to  that  credit  limit  as  you  need  it. 
Depending  on  your  tax  situation,  you 
may  have  some  tax  advantages,  be-

cause  the  interest,  assuming  that  you 
itemize  deductions,  should  he  deduct- 
ible just  like  your  mortgage  interest." 

Line  of  credit  loans  offer  flex- 
ible repayment  based  on  a  certain 
percentage  of  the  outstanding  bal- 
ance, and  the  borrower  pays  interest 
only  on  what  has  been  borrowed. 
Interest  rates  are  variable;  it  the  line 
is  for  $15,000  or  more  the  rate  is 
typically  prime  plus  one  percent, 
says  McCombie. 

An  installment  loan  from  a 
bank  is  another  financing  possibil- 
ity. The  loan  may  be  secured  or  un- 
secured, and  repayment  is  based  on 
the  amount  borrowed  and  the 
monthly  payment  the  borrower 
wishes  to  assume. 

Private  scholarships  provide  an- 
other source  of  tuition  money.  Ac- 
cording to  The  Scholarship  Book 
(Fourth  Edition;  1993)  by  Daniel 
Cassidy,  "The  National  Commission 
on  Student  Financial  Assistance,  a 
U.S.  Congressional  Subcommittee, 
found  that  while  there  was  more 
than  $7  billion  available  to  students 
from  corporations,  only  $400  million 
was  used,  some  $6.6  billion  went  un- 
claimed, not  because  people  were 
unqualified,  but  because  they  didn't 
know  where  to  look." 

UNCW's  D'Annibale  agrees 
many  scholarships  go  unclaimed  in 
part,  he  believes,  because  some  do- 
nors are  very  specific  about  the  type 
of  candidate  to  receive  the  award, 
and  the  right  candidates  do  not  find 
out  about  the  scholarship. 

But  D'Annibale  cautions  that 
while  some  professional  scholarship 
search  firms  are  very  reputable, 
others  are  not.  He  hopes  to  estab- 
lish a  scholarship  search  program  at 
the  university  called  STAR  (Stu- 
dent Aid  Resource  Center).  It 
funds  for  the  center  are  approved, 
the  university  would  contract  with 
a  reputable  search  firm;  maintain 
oversight  of  the  firm's  activities; 
and  offer  the  search  services  to  stu- 
dents and  the  community. 

Federal  and  state  financial  aid 
programs  plus  university  grants  and 
scholarships  bring  considerable  funds 
to  the  college  education  finance 
equation.  To  apply  for  financial  aid, 


students  must  first  till  out  the  Free 
Application  for  Federal  Student  Aid 
(FAFSA)  form  in  January  or  Febru- 
ary for  the  next  college  year.  Forms 
are  available  from  high  school 
guidance  offices  and  from  college 
financial  aid  offices. 

"This  is  were  it  all  begins,"  ex- 
plains D'Annibale.  "Even  when  you 
are  applying  tor  scholarships  and  it  is 
not  involving  federal  aid,  start  out 
with  FAFSA.  You  may  be  pleasantly 
surprised.  FAFSA  will  automatically 
apply  you  tor  federal  loans,  federal 
grants,  federal  work-study  programs, 
state  grants,  and  we  also  use  it  for 
some  of  our  UNCW  scholarships." 

D'Annibale  stresses  the  need 
for  families  to  apply  for  aid  early, 
which  also  means  not  waiting  until 
the  last  minute  to  prepare  income 
tax  statements. 

"I  recommend  that  parent  and 
student  do  all  of  the  application  pro- 
cess together.  The  student  should 
know  what  was  filed  when,  and  have 
a  part  in  it,"  advises  D'Annibale. 
"Keep  a  copy  of  everything  you  have 
ever  received  or  sent  to  a  college  and 
follow  up  it  you  haven't  heard  from  a 
school  in  five  or  six  weeks  after 
you  submitted  the  documents." 

Some  of  the  major  federal  finan- 
cial aid  programs  are  the  Pell  Grant, 
Supplemental  Educational  Opportu- 
nity Grant  Program,  Perkins  Loan, 
Stafford  Loan,  PLUS  Loan  and  work- 
study  program. 

Financial  aid  programs  provided 
by  states  vary.  N.C  Student  Incen- 
tive Grants  are  funds  sent  to  institu- 
tions and  are  distributed  to  the 
neediest  students,  such  as  those 
whose  parents  can  contribute  less 
than  $600  per  year.  The  N.C.  Leg- 
islative Tuition  Grant  is  avail- 
able to  residents 


enrolled  full  time  in  private  col- 
leges or  universities  in  the  state. 
These  awards  are  not  need  based 
and  are  subject  to  state  budget  re- 
ductions. The  expected  amount  in 
1995-96  is  $1,250. 

Most  universities,  including 
UNCW,  provide  various  named 
grants,  scholarships  and  athletic 
scholarships.  UNCW  also  otters  a 
work  assist  program  through  the  stu- 
dent employment  office.  It  work  is  a 
part  of  a  student's  college  financing 
plan,  UNCW  administrators  agree, 
make  sure  the  time  spent  on  the  job 
is  limited,  preferably  no  more  than 
20  hours  per  week. 

Of  course,  academic  ability 
plays  a  significant  role  in  the  fi- 
nancing picture.  Students  who  gear 
up  academically  are  more  likely  to 
receive  some  academic  scholarship 
assistance. 

"You  have  to  qualify  first," 
insists  Ron  Whittaker,  director  of 
admissions  and  registrar  at  UNCW. 
"I  recommend  that  students  do  as 
well  academically  as  they  possibly 
can.  That  includes  prior  to  taking 
the  SAT,  getting  the  review  book 
and  familiarizing  themselves  with 
standardized  tests.  Take  the  tests  as 
early  and  as  often  as  possible.  So 
many  students  think  it  is  a  one- 
shot  deal." 

Adds  D'Annibale,  "It  you  are  a 
good  student,  you  have  good  grades 
and  good  community  affiliations,  you 
definitely  have  to  toot  your  own 
horn  and  let  people  know.  Go  to 
your  community,  to  churches,  to  em- 
ployers and  find  out  it  there  are 
scholarships  or  loans  available 

through  them.  I've  seen  a  lot  ot 
scholarships  come  out  of 
the  community."

CHARTING  the  CURRENTS  of  CHANGE 


UNCW's  Capital  Campaign 
reached  its  $15  million 
goal  two  years  ahead  of 
schedule,  and  there's  no  stopping 
the  momentum  that  began  in 
April  1992  to  generate  the  addi- 
tional money  needed  to  enrich  the 
educational  and  cultural  offerings 
at  the  University  of  North  Carolina 
at  Wilmington. 

In  November,  the  UNCW 
Board  of  Trustees  agreed  to  raise  the 
goal  to  $25  million. 

William  G.  Anlyan,  vice  chancel- 
lor for  University  Advancement,  said 
the  amount  was  increased  because  "the 
university  continues  to  be  under- 
endowed  and  the  support  of  the  com- 
munity has  been  so  overwhelming." 

The  many  businesses  and  indi- 
viduals who  have  made  large  contri- 
butions to  the  capital  campaign  in 
recent  months  indicate  that  more 
and  more  people  realize  the 
university's  need  to  attract  the  best 
faculty  and  students  in  order  to  re- 
main competitive  in  the  next  cen- 
tury and  to  serve  the  growing  needs 
of  the  region. 


Robert  Warwick,  co-chairman  of  UNCW's  Capital  Campaign  with  Dan 
Cameron,  was  recognized  at  a  gala  announcing  that  the  $15  million 
campaign  goal  had  been  reached  and  increased  to  $25  million. 


Centura  Bank  pledged  $50,000 
to  establish  the  Centura  Bank  Fac- 
ulty Development  Endowment 
Fund  at  UNCW.  The  money  will  be 
paid  equally  over  a  five-year  term. 

"This  is  the  first  gift  of  this 
magnitude  strictly  tor  faculty 
development,"  said  Provost 
Marvin  Moss. 

Bedford  Fair,  a  national 
women's  fashion  catalog  company, 
made  a  $30,000  donation  to 
UNCW  to  establish  a  permanent 
endowment  fund. 

Eligible  students  must  be  New 
Hanover  County  high  school 
graduates,  been  active  in  the  com- 
munity, have  a  3.0  or  better  grade 
point  average  and  have  an  estab- 
lished financial  need. 

Peoples  Savings  Bank  estab- 
lished a  $25,000  permanent 
endowment,  earmarked  for 
undergraduate  academic  schol- 
arships in  the  Cameron  School 
of  Business  Administration. 

Scholarship  recipients  will  be 
chosen  by  the  Cameron  School 
dean,  with 
preference 
given  to  stu- 
dents from 
New  Han- 
over or 
Pender 
counties 
majoring  in 
economics 
or  finance. 
The  schol- 
arship will 
be  awarded 
annually 
a  n  d   will 
be  renew- 
able. 


Wilmington  West  Rotary 
Club  established  a  $25,000  schol- 
arship fund  for  UNCW.  President 
Bill  Maus  presented  the  first  $5,000 
installment  of  the  endowed  fund  in 
November. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Allan  Wilson 
donated  $20,000  to  establish  the 
Allan  Wilson  Scholarship  at 
UNCW. 

Cooperative  Bank  For  Savings 
and  Lowe's  Stores  Inc.  each 
contributed  $15,000  for  the  reno- 
vation of  Wise  Alumni  House. 

The  money  will  go  toward 
repayment  of  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association's  $400,000 
renovation  loan  with  United 
Carolina  Bank. 

National  Spinning  Company, 
a  leading  U.S.  yarn  manufacturer, 
donated  $15,000  to  create  an 
endowed  scholarship  fund  for  stu- 
dents who  are  children  of  eligible 
employees.  It  there  are  none 
to  apply,  the  scholarship  may  be 
awarded  to  students  in  south- 
eastern North  Carolina. 

Several  new  endowed  schol- 
arships have  been  established. 
Wanda  Moore  donated  $15,000 
in  memory  of  her  husband,  Dr. 
Robert  A.  Moore,  Jr.,  to  support 
the  merit  scholarship  program 
which  will  enable  UNCW  to  at- 
tract and  retain  additional  aca- 
demically strong  students. 

Retired  UNCW  faculty 
member,  Betty  Holden  Stike, 
donated  $10,000  to  establish  an 
endowment  for  the  Donald  R. 
Watson  School  of  Education. 

Margaret  and  Edward 
Barclay  established  a  $10,000 
endowment  for  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business  Administra- 
tion as  did  Elwood  Walker.

Practical  tips  for  charitable  giving 


BY  TYRONE  ROWELL 

One  ot  the  nicest  things  about 
giving  is  that  you  have  the 
power  to  decide. 

You  give  if  you  feel  like  it  and 
refuse  it  you  don't.  And,  you  give 
whatever  and  \\  henever  you  like. 

Still  this  freedom  of  choice  may 
leave  you  uneasy.  Once  you  have 
made  up  your  mind  to  do  something, 
you  have  many  questions.  How  much 
should  I  give?  How?  When?  What? 

Your  decision  to  give  something 
begins  with  your  unselfish  wish  to 
help  someone  else.  More  than  any- 
other  people,  Americans  generously 
support  institutions  and  causes  dedi- 
cated to  helping  people  less  fortunate 
than  they  are.  Ninety  percent  of  pri- 
vate charitable  giving  comes  from  in- 
dividual donors,  most  of  them  givers 
of  relatively  modest  amounts. 

Our  government  encourages 
philanthropy  by  allowing  deductions 
for  income  tax  purposes  and  exemp- 
tion from  estate  taxes,  sharply  reduc- 
ing the  cost  ot  charitable  gifts.  This 
is  wise  because  nonprofit  institutions 
provide  services  with  far  less  cost  and 
red  tape  than  public  agencies  do. 
How  much  should  you  give? 

This  is  a  tough  question.  Should 
one  give  a  little  to  each  of  the  many 
fine  causes  or  a  lot  to  a  few  of  them? 

Let's  assume  you  are  thinking 
about  making  a  major  gift  to  a  wor- 
thy institution  such  as  UNCW.  How 
do  you  decide  what  is  the  right 
amount?  Try  this  approach: 

•  Determine  the  size  of  the  project 
and  consider  a  contribution  pro- 
portionate to  it  and  to  the  ability 
of  others  to  support  it. 

•  Review  your  personal  and  family 
concerns,  reserving  enough  to 
meet  them. 

•  Ask  you  tax  advisor  to  calculate 
your  optimum  income  tax  deduc- 
tion, examining  such  factors  as  the 
nature  of  the  donee,  the  type  of 
gift  to  be  given,  the  timing  of  the 


gift  (present  or  deferred)  and 
your  contribution  base 
•  Select  a  suitable  kind  of  gift. 
While  cash  is  the  simplest,  tor  tax 
and  other  reasons,  you  might  give 
stocks,  real  estate,  a  lite  insurance 
policy,  a  boat  or  some  other  pos- 
session. Many  UNCW  scholar- 
ships have  been  established 
through  gifts  such  as  these. 
When  should  you  give! 

You  can  give  now,  or  you  can 
agree  now  to  make  a  gift  later  (a  de- 
ferred gift).  Which  is  better? 

Like  many  donors,  you  may  pre- 
fer to  give  now  so  you  will  not  have  a 
future  obligation.  This  allows  the  in- 
stitution you  are  helping  to  meet  its 
current  needs.  On  the  other  hand, 
postponing  your  gifts  lets  you  enjoy 
the  use  of  your  money  or  property 
that  much  longer.  Moreover,  if  you 
do  not  have  the  wherewithal  now, 
installment  payments  make  sense. 
Deferred  giving  allows  you  to  get  the

spreading  them

Finally,  larger  gifts 
are  sometimes 
made  hy  will. 

You  can 
choose  from  sev- 
eral plans  to 

achieve  the  balance  you  seek  be- 
tween personal  needs,  tax  savings 
and  charitable  intentions.  These 
include:  the  gift  annuity,  the  annu- 
ity trust,  the  unitrust  and  the  gift 
of  a  home  subject  to  your  retained 
use  for  life. 

Should  you  tell  the  recipient  how  you 
want  the  gift  spent? 

A  contribution  to  UNCW  with- 
out strings  is  usually  better  as  the  in- 
stitution can  decide  the  best  use  ot 
the  funds.  Often  there  are  pressing 
current  needs  vital  to  its  successful 
operation  and  the  personal  welfare  of 
individuals  it  serves. 

But  you  have  the  right  to  restrict 
your  gift,  for  example,  to  purchase 
certain  equipment  or  to  support  a 
specific  academic  department  or  the 
building  of  an  addition.  One  of  the 
most  common  requirements  is  that  a 
gift  he  permanently  invested  and 
only  the  income  used  for  current 
needs  (an  endowment). 

Through  intelligent  financial 
and  estate  planning,  you  can  stretch 
your  contributions  while  saving  in- 
come and  estate  taxes. 

Enlightened  charitable  giving 
often  requires  the  professional  skills 
of  a  lawyer,  accountant,  trust  offer  or 
life  insurance  underwriter.  To  coor- 
dinate your  plans,  we  invite  you  to 
contact  UNCW's  University  Ad- 
vancement Division  at  (910)  395-

wisest  means.

D  i rectorj s  Message 


People  are  talking  and  are  de- 
lighted that  UNCW  is 
ranked  once  more  as  a  top 
regional  university  by  U.S.  News 
and  World  Report  in  its  guide  to 
America's  Best  Colleges.  We  rose 
to  number  14  on  the  list.  In  a  rank- 
ing of  efficiency,  U.S.  News  lists 
UNCW  as  fourth  in  the  South.  We 
continue  to  do 
more  with  fewer 
resources.  More 
news  to  make 
UNCW  Alumni 
proud! 

We  are 
equally  pleased 
with  the  early 
success  of  our 
new  UNCW  af- 
finity bank  card 
program  with  BB&T.  We  started 
off  with  double  the  response  rate  of 
corporate  bank  card  programs.  The 
revenues  are  beginning  to  come  in 
to  the  Alumni  Association  and 
will  make  a  difference  in  our  ability 
to  provide  services  to  you,  our 
alumni  base.  Please  support  our  as- 
sociation by  carrying  and  using 
your  UNCW  MasterCard.  For  all 
the  details,  you  can  call  the  alumni 
office  at  (910)  251-2682. 

Two  young  alumni  were  re- 
cently employed  by  Alumni  Rela- 
tions. Mike  Arnold,  alumni 
relations  assistant,  was  a  communi- 


Corcoran 


cations  major  who  graduated  in 
1993.  He  is  primarily  responsible 
tor  chapter  development  and  assists 
with  various  alumni  efforts.  Tracie 
Chadwick,  alumni  office  assistant, 
was  an  English  major  who  gradu- 
ated in  1994.  She  is  the  key  to  our 
daily  office  operations.  Both  she 
and  Mike  are  ready  to  assist  you  in 
any  way. 

Cherry  Woodbury,  coordinator 
for  Wise  Alumni  House  events, 
plans  and  implements  strategies  to 
assist  in  raising  funds  needed  for 
renovation  of  our  grand  alumni 
house  and  to  repay  our  $400,000 
loan  with  United  Carolina  Bank. 
She  hails  from  Duke  and  Carolina 
and  brings  depth  to  our  staff.  She 
has  Seahawk  pride  and  is  commit- 
ted to  generating  the  precious 
funds  we  need.  Her  most  current 
project  is  the  Designers  Showcase 
this  spring. 

Keep  talking  to  your  friends, 
family  and  co-workers  about  the 
great  things  happening  at  UNCW 
and  with  our  Alumni  Association. 
We  need  you  to  be  complete.  Be- 
come involved  today  and  tell  some- 
one. Our  rankings  are  great  and  our 
alumni  are  greater.  You  have  helped 
to  make  UNCW  what  it  is  today. 
Thank  you  from  Alumni  Relations.

SHORT     TAKES 


Running,  swimming,  cycling. 
Competitions. 
Triathalons.  What  is  the 
common  thread  running  among  all 
of  these? 

Simple.  A  young  athlete  by  the 
name  of  Cameron  King. 

Although  a  recent  graduate  of 
the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington, 
King  has  already  covered 
more  miles  with  her  body 
than  most  young  people 
her  age  can  ever  hope  to 
cover  with  their  cars. 

Literally,  she  covers 
about  32  miles  a  day  — 
swimming  one  mile,  bik- 
ing 25  miles  and  running 
six  miles.  But  King  has  gone  a  lot 
farther  than  just  where  her  daily  rou- 
tine takes  her.  In  August  1994,  King 
placed  12th  overall  in  the  National 
Amateur  Championships  in  Colum- 
bia, Md.,  and  won  a  spot  on  Team 
USA.  In  November,  she  travelled  to 
New  Zealand  to  compete  in  the 
Triathalon  World  Championships. 
She  walked  away  with  third  place  and  a 
determination  to  win  the  next  time. 

Now  that  she  has  graduated  with 


a  degree  in  natural  resources  recre- 
ation management,  King  has  moved 
back  to  her  hometown  of  Charlotte. 
She  is  preparing  for  her  move  to  Ra- 
leigh, where  she  will  become  an  in- 
tern with  Raleigh  Parks  and 
Recreation.  This  doesn't  mean, 
though,  that  she  has  given  up  on  com- 
petitions. 

"My  plans  are  to 
stay  an  amateur  one 
more  year  and  eventu- 
ally become  recognized 
as  a  top  competitor," 
King  said. 

King  still  plans  to 
pursue  the  Triathalon 
World  Championships 
and  hopes  to  turn  pro  in 
the  next  year  or  two.  She  works  out 
every  day,  anywhere  from  one-and- 
a-half  to  three  hours,  and  says  she 
"would  really  like  to  make  a  'career' 
out  of  this"  before  actually  settling 
into  her  life's  work. 

With  the  skill  and  determina- 
tion needed  to  strive  tor  the  crown, 
King  is  sure  to  go  a  long  way  and 
eventually  capture  that  glory  she 
seeks.

Volunteers  crucial  to  success  of  UNCW  events 


More  than  a  thousand  volun- 
teers helped  UNCW  conduct 
two  major  events  this  spring  - 
the  Wise  House  Designers  Showcase 
and  the  1995  NCAA  Women's  Golf 
Championships. 

Over  a  three-week  period  in  April 
and  May,  some  800  community  volun- 
teers were  hostesses  in  the  rooms  of  the 
Designers  Showcase,  worked  in  the  gift 
shop,  took  tickets  and  helped  in  the 
tea  room. 

"All  the  volunteers  were  wonder- 
ful," said  Cherry  Woodbury,  Wise  House 
special  events  coordinator.  "The  volun- 
teers bought  into  the  house  and  said  they 
would  do  it  again  in  a  minute." 

Members  from  approximately  20 
community  organizations  helped  with 
the  showcase  making  it  the  "biggest  event 
undertaken  by  UNCW  in  collaboration 
with  the  community,"  according  to 
Woodbury.  "The  volunteers  were  com- 
mitted to  making  this  event  successful; 
they  fell  in  love  with  the  house  and 
wanted  all  the  visitors  to  also,"  she  said. 

Breaking  all  NCAA  women's  golf 


^^ 


Volunteers  check-in  visitors  to  the  NCAA 
Women's  Golf  Championships  at  Landfall. 

tournament  records  for  attendance, 
the  1995  Women's  Golf  Champion- 
ship, hosted  by  UNCW  at  Landfall,  was 
a  huge  success.  "Without  all  300  volun- 
teers we  (UNCW)  could  never  have 
pulled  off  such  a  tremendous  event,"  said 
tournament  director  Donna  Cameron. 

Volunteer  services  for  the  champi- 
onships included  shuttle  van  drivers, 
hospitality,  scoreboards,  spotters  and 
media  assistants.  Most  of  the  volunteers 
had  a  love  for  golf,  and  some  even  picked 
up  a  few  pointers  watching  the  girls. 

Thank  you  notes  from  players,  par- 
ents, NCAA  officials  and  volunteers 


poured  in  after  the  event.  The  golf  cham- 
pionships boosted  not  only  the  reputa- 
tion of  UNCW,  but  gave  Wilmington  a 
chance  to  shine. 

"The  commitment  of  the  volun- 
teers says  a  lot  for  UNCW  and  the  Wilm- 
ington community,"  said  Cameron. 

Nettie  McKenney  volunteered  her 
services  and  wound  up  as  the  volunteer 
coordinator.  She  said  she  would  raise  her 
hand  again  if  she  had  the  opportunity  to 
work  with  the  same  group  of  people. 

"I  had  a  wonderful  time.  1  truly 
support  the  youth  and  the  game  of  golf. 
Youth  is  what  we  have  to  promote  if  we 
are  to  have  golf  in  the  future,"  explained 
McKenney. 

Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  saluted 
those  who  came  to  UNCW's  aid.  "These 
volunteers  who  were  so  generous  with 
their  time  and  skills  have  bought  into 
UNCW.  Now  with  their  personal  in- 
vestment into  the  university,  they  own  a 
part  of  our  success.  They  are  now,  more 
than  ever,  enthusiastic  supporters  and 
eager  to  stay  involved,"  he  said.

Building  boom 
is  anticipated 

As  UNCW  approaches  its  50th  anniversary  in  1997, 
the  campus  community  is  anticipating  more  than 
$50  million  in  building  projects. 

The  biggest  is  the  science  building,  currently  under  con- 
struction. The  $18.5  million,  100,000-square  foot  building,  is 
scheduled  for  completion  in  June  1996. 

This  summer,  the  university  got  a  $16  million  boost  from 
the  N.  C.  General  Assembly.  The  appropriation  will  fund  the 
new  marine  science  center  at  Myrtle  Grove,  replacing  the 
hodgepodge  of  nearly  20  buildings  and  trailers  at  the  Center  for 
Marine  Science  Research  at  Wrightsville  Beach. 

Construction  crews  are  currently  at  work  expanding  Bear 
Hall,  an  1 1,000-square-foot-addition,  which  should  be  com- 
pleted by  the  new  year.  Nearby  DeLoach  Hall  will  see  a  $1.4 
million  renovation  which  will  include  reconfiguring  classroom 
space  and  upgrading  the  heating  and  air  conditioning  systems. 

Other  projects  currently  in  progress  include  renovation  of 
the  west  wing  of  Kenan  Hall  and  the  installation  of  soccer  field

lighting  and  new  bicycle  racks. 

Plans  are  in  the  works  to  create  a  commons  area  in  the 
center  of  campus  between  Randall  Library,  the  University 
Union  and  Morton  Hall.  It  will  feature  a  water  interest  such  as 
a  small  lake  and  fountain  and  an  amphitheater  for  outdoor 
performances. 

In  the  planning  stages  are  student  housing  and  a  student 
recreation  center,  as  well  as  a  new  parking  lot  and  additional 
Kenan  Hall  renovations. 


New  UNCW  documentary 
explores  life  along  the  coast 


With  the  success  of  one 
documentary  under  its 
belt,  UNCW  has  begun 
work  on  a  second  production. 

Treasure  Coast:  The  Natural  Heri- 
tage of  the  North  Carolina  Shore  will 
examine  the  economic  and  cultural 
heritage  of  the  North  Carolina  Coast 
through  the  eyes  and  words  of  many  of 
its  residents:  fishermen  on  Ocracoke, 
decoy  carvers  on  Harker's  Island,  de- 
velopers and  scientists. 

Chancellor  James  R.  Leut:e  will 
host  the  documentary  which  will  air  in 
late  spring  1996  on  UNC-TV. 

UNCW  has  become  a  leader  in 
coastal  research  and  education  with 


internationally  recognized  expertise  in 
estuarine,  wetland  and  barrier  island 
habitat  studies.  Information  collected 
will  help  prescribe  the  most  sustain- 
able management  and  use  for  the  state's 
natural  resources. 

"Because  the  design  of  future 
policy  must  be  based  on  sound  scien- 
tific information  attained  from  state- 
of-the-art  technology,  UNCW  is 
committed  to  advancing  public  aware- 
ness of  the  issues  which  affect  us,"  said 
Chancellor  Leutze.  The  advantage  of 
knowledge  and  awareness  is  that  an 
informed  public  will  become  directly 
involved  in  charting  the  future  of  their 
coastal  resources. 


Chancellor  James  R   Leutze  and  the 
Treasure  Coast  film  crew  stopped  at 
Jockey's  Ridge  State  Park  in  the  Outer 
Banks  to  interview  Peggy  Birkemeier  of 
Friends  of  Jockey's  Ridge.  UNCW  alumnus 
George  Barnes  '77  is  park  superintendent 
at  Jockey's  Ridge 


Halme  is  honored 
with  Teaching 
Excellence  Award 

Kathleen  Halme,  assistant  pro- 
fessor of  English,  was  honored  with 
the  UNCW  Board  of  Trustees  Teach- 
ing Excellence  Award  which  is  de- 
signed to  exemplify  UNCW's 
commitment  to  teaching  excellence. 

A  nomination  committee  made 
up  of  faculty  members  cited  Halme  for 
her  enthusiastic  and  selfless  commit- 
ment to  her  students'  creative  poten- 
tial and  academic  success  and  her 
dynamic  and  continuing  involvement 
in  developing  various  learning  pro- 
grams outside  the  classroom.  Halme 
joined  the  faculty  in  1991. 

In  addition  to  the  recognition, 
she  received  $1,500  in  cash.  She  will 
also  be  expected  to  share  her  excel- 
lence with  colleagues  and  students 
throughout  the  next  year. 


People,  positions  added 
to  administrative  staff 


Several  administrative  changes 
took  place  at  UNCW  over  the 
summer. 
A  new  position,  associate  provost 
for  enrollment  affairs,  was  created,  and 
Dr.  Denis  G.  Carter  was  appointed  to 
till  it.  Carter  will  be  responsible  tor 
oversight  of  pre-admission  and  recruit- 
ment activities,  admissions,  enroll- 
ment, records,  financial  aid,  student 
academic  support  programs,  transfer 
articulations,  special  and  summer  ses- 
sions. Carter  came  to  UNCW  in  1978 
as  assistant  professor  of  economics.  He 
served  as  the  first  assistant  and  associ- 
ate dean  of  the  Cameron  School  of 
Business  Administration.  In  1992  he 
was  appointed  associate  vice  chan- 
cellor for  academic  affairs  and  was 
senior  associate  vice  chancellor  for 
academic  affairs. 


Dr.  Neil  F.  Hadley  was  named 
dean  of  the  UNCW  Graduate  School. 
He  hails  from  Arizona  State  Univer- 
sity where  he  was  a  professor  of  zoology 
and  former  associate  dean  of  the  gradu- 
ate college  and  assistant  vice  president 
for  research.  He  is  the  second  dean  of 
the  graduate  school,  but  the  position 
has  been  restructured  to  include  re- 
sponsibilities for  research  administra- 
tion. Dr.  Jack  Manock,  formerly 
director  of  research  administration, 
returned  to  teaching  full-time  in  the 
chemistry  department. 

Dr.  Carolyn  Simmons  announced 
that  she  will  resign  her  position  as 
dean  of  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sci- 
ences and  return  to  teaching  in 
UNCW's  psychology  department,  ef- 
fective December  31.  She  has  been 
dean  since  July  1990.

'Through  the  Decades' 

A  look  at  Wilmington  College 


By  MARYBETH  K.  BlANCHI 

Donald  Blake  was  22,  al- 
ready a  veteran  of  World 
War  II,  when  he  enrolled 
in  the  newly  established  Wilming- 
ton College  Center  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  North  Carolina. 

It  was  1946. 

"I  was  in  the  very  first  class," 
Blake  recalls.  Classes  were  held  in 
New  Hanover  High  School,  begin- 
ning at  4  p.m.  The  high  school  stu- 
dents went  home,  but  many  of 
their  teachers  pulled  a  second  shift, 
teaching  area  residents  and  return- 
ing veterans  who  were  eager  to 
continue  their  education. 

"Most  of  us  probably  couldn't 
have  made  it  without  that,"  Blake 
said.  "It  gave  us  an  opportunity  to 
get  started."  With  help  from  the 
GI  Bill,  Blake  was  able  to  afford 
the  tuition,  which  was  $4  a  quarter 
hour,  plus  a  $5  registration  fee,  ac- 
cording to  professor  emeritus  J. 
Marshall  Crews  in  his  book  From 
These  Beginnings. 

"The  school  was  much  more 
informal  than  it  is  to- 
day," Blake  remem- 
bers. "You  knew 
everybody  in  the  stu- 
dent body.  Everybody 
was  there  because  they 
wanted  to  be." 

The  classes  were 
small,  and  students  re- 
ceived a  lot  of  personal 
attention  from  their 
instructors.  For  ex- 
ample, Blake  said,  stu- 
dents knew  that 
biology  professor  Paul 
Wright  and  Crews, 
who  taught  mathemat- 
ics and  physics,  were 
avid  ping  pong  players. 

"If  you  wanted  to 


get  a  good  grade,  you  played  ping 
pong  with  those  guys.  You  made 
brownie  points,"  he  said. 

Overall,  the  education  offered 
at  the  new  school  was  "as  good  as 
was  available,"  Blake  said.  "We  had 
Adrian  Hurst  teaching  math"  and 
Mildred  Johnson,  "the  finest  history 
teacher."  He  said,  "She  was  the  first 
person  to  make  history  come  alive 
for  me." 

Although  Wilmington  College 
was  a  two-year  school  at  the  time, 
it  took  Blake  until  1950  to  gradu- 
ate. "A  lot  of  people  were  like  me, 
got  married  and  had  kids  and  spread 
it  out,  not  taking  a  full  load." 

"I  take  great  pride  that  I  was  a 
part  of  the  early  days.  Anyone  who 
doesn't  feel  proud  of  the  campus 
today  has  ice  water  in  his  veins.  To 
see  what  grew  from  those  small  be- 
ginnings is  great,"  he  said. 

Grace  Gurganious  Hobbs 
graduated  from  New  Hanover  High 
School  in  1947  and  enrolled  at 
Wilmington  College  that  fall, 


Students  in  the  early  days  of  Wilmington  College  study  biology. 


when  it  achieved  junior  college  sta- 
tus. The  oldest  of  five  children, 
Hobbs  feels  fortunate  to  have  had 
the  opportunity  to  attend  college 
and  probably  wouldn't  have  if  it 
hadn't  been  so  accessible. 

At  Wilmington  College  during 
1947-48,  "the  camaraderie  among 
the  kids  was  wonderful  because  the 
classes  were  small,"  Hobbs  said. 

Looking  back  at  Wilmington 
College,  Hobbs  said,  "I  feel  like  it 
was  mine  because  we  were  the  first 
ones.  It's  gone  far  beyond  anything 
I  expected  to  see.  With  each 
change  in  administration  there 
have  been  great  strides.  It's  a  very 
vital  part  of  the  community." 

Hugh  Fox  was  the  first  class 
president  and  Hobbs  was  secretary. 
Her  husband-to-be,  Roy,  was  man- 
ager of  the  college's  first  basketball 
team. 

Students  in  that  class  chose 
the  college's  mascot  -  the  Sea- 
hawk.  Although  a  seagull  was  sug- 
gested, Hobbs  said,  "We  wanted 
something  more  ag- 
gressive." Ludie 
Croom  was  instru- 
mental in  selecting 
the  college's  colors, 
green  and  gold,  to 
represent  the  ocean 
and  the  sand,  Hobbs 
remembers. 

Hobbs  attended 
Wilmington  College 
for  just  one  year 
which  she  remembers 
as  being  "not  terribly 
eventful.  I  was  so  in- 
terested in  Roy  and 
having  a  good  time. 
The  height  of  my  am- 
bition was  to  be  a 
wonderful  secretary

and  marry  a  handsome  man,"  she 
said.  She  accomplished  both,  cel- 
ebrating 47  years  of  marriage  and 
still  working  part-time  as  a  secre- 
tary for  Boney  Architects. 

Fresh  out  of  high  school  in 
1950,  17-year-old  James  Medlin  de- 
cided he  wanted  a  career  in  engi- 
neering but  he  said  he  "didn't  have 
money  to  go  to  another  school. 
This  one  was  close  by."  So  he  en- 
rolled at  Wilmington  College. 

"Money  is  probably  the  big  rea- 
son a  lot  of  local  folks  went  there," 
he  said.  "We  were  very  fortunate  to 
have  the  school  here.  Some  of  us 
wouldn't  have  gotten  a  college  edu- 
cation if  it  wasn't  for  Wilmington 
College,"  Medlin  said. 

Classes  were  small;  there  were 
three  in  Medlin's  physics  class,  and 
when  the  experiments  were  com- 
pleted, they'd  form  a  foursome  with 
Professor  Crews  and  play  ping  pong. 

The  school  store  was  started 
under  the  basement  steps  in  Isaac 
Bear  Hall.  "1  remember  I  ran  it  for 
a  year.  There  wasn't  anything  to 
sell.  Candy,  nabs,  peanuts,  drinks, 
maybe  pencils,  I  don't  know," 
Medlin  remembers. 

When  he  graduated  in  1952, 
the  students  were  honored  at  a 


banquet  at  the  Famous  Club. 
"That  was  a  big  to-do,"  Medlin 
said.  Students  considered  it  the 
climax  of  the  college  social  year. 

As  the  first  in  his  family  to 
graduate  from  high  school,  Medlin 
said,  "I  never  envisioned  I  could  go 
to  college."  And  he  didn't  envision 
the  college  becoming  a  four-year 
university  on  a  sprawling  campus. 
"I  don't  think  any  of  us  going  there 
thought  it  would  grow  to  what  it  is 
today." 

Buck  O'Shields  '61,  who  served 
as  student  body  president,  clearly 
remembers  one  particular  day  he 
went  to  work  at  Payne's  Men's 
Shop.  Owner  Harry  Payne,  who 
was  a  Wilmington  College  trustee, 
shared  with  him  the  architect's  rec- 
ommendation for  the  building  de- 
sign of  the  new  campus  on  N.C  132 
-  adobe  exteriors  with  tile  roofs. 

"That's  what  they  were  looking 
at,  and  everybody  got  so  upset.  We 
may  be  at  the  coast,  but  we're  not 
that,"  O'Shields  said  of  the  sug- 
gested architectural  style.  Luckily, 
the  trustees  agreed  and  decided  on 
the  Georgian  style  which  O'Shields 
felt  suited  the  character  of  the 
Wilmington  area  much  better. 

"What  we  thought  we  needed 


was  what  we  got,"  he  said,  and  he's 
happy  that  the  style  of  architecture 
has  been  maintained  as  the  campus 
has  grown. 

Wilmington  College  moved 
from  its  Market  Street  location  out 
to  the  country  in  1961.  The  first 
buildings  constructed  were  Alder- 
man, Hoggard  and  James  halls,  at  a 
cost  of  $1,149,588.  The  trunks  of 
towering  oak  trees  that  now  line 
the  quadrangle  were  about  six 
inches  in  diameter  at  the  time,  and 
"when  you  walked  across  campus, 
the  wind  blew  sand  in  your  eyes," 
because  there  was  no  grass  growing 
there,  Steve  Culbreth  '63  and  '65 
remembers. 

When  Culbreth  was  a  student, 
college  officials  lobbied  the  state 
legislature  to  upgrade  Wilmington 
College  from  a  two-year  to  a  four- 
year  school.  The  effort  paid  off,  and 
Culbreth  was  a  member  of  the  first 
class  of  52  men  and  women  who 
earned  bachelor's  degrees  from 
Wilmington  College. 

When  he  enrolled  in  law  school 
at  the  University  of  North  Carolina 
at  Chapel  Hill,  Culbreth  admitted  he 
was  "scared  to  death"  to  be  compet- 
ing with  top  graduates  from  Harvard 
and  other  Ivy  League  school--.

As  first  president  of  the  alumni  association,  Donald 
Blake  '50  crowns  Dot  Howell  as  the  first  homecoming 
queen. 

"I  came  to  recognize  some- 
thing," he  said.  "My  educational 
background  was  every  bit  as  good." 
Lionel  Yow  '65  was  one  of 
Culbreth's  classmates  who  also 
went  on  to  become  a  successful 
Wilmington  attorney. 

When  Culbreth  enrolled  at 
Wilmington  College  in  1961,  tu- 
ition was  $200  a  quarter,  and  Dr. 
William  Randall,  for  whom  the  li- 
brary is  named,  was  president. 
Coach  Bill  Brooks,  who  Culbreth 
said  "was  the  biggest  scavenger," 
had  the  field  house  (Hanover 
Hall)  built  at  practically  no  cost. 
He  also  had  surveying  classes  scope 
out  the  baseball  field,  and  physical 
education  classes  provide  some  of 
the  labor  to  clear  the  land. 

"It  was  a  great  school  and  we 
made  a  lot  of  friendships,"  he  re- 
members. A  particularly  good 
friendship  he  made  was  with  Dr. 
Randall's  secretary  and  fellow  stu- 
dent, Bonnie  Raines,  whom  he 
married  two  months  before  gradu- 
ation "so  she  could  put  me 
through  law  school,"  he  joked. 

O'Shields  also  married  a  class- 
mate, Judy  Avery,  who  was  secre- 
tary of  the  student  body  when  he 
was  president.  The  tradition  of 
Wilmington  College  continued 
with  their  children;  one  son  at- 
tended UNCW,  another  earned 
his  degree  at  UNCW  and  a  daugh- 


ter is  married  to  the  men's 
athletic  trainer  at  the  uni- 
versity. 

A  similar  family  tradi- 
tion has  been  carried  on 
by  Shearon  Eadon  Apple- 
ton  '68  who  married  busi- 
ness professor  Robert 
Appleton  when  she  re- 
turned to  campus  in  the 
late  1970's.  With  a  son  who 
is  an  alumnus  and  a  daugh- 
ter who  is  a  sophomore, 
the  Appletons  are  "very 
much  a  UNCW  family." 
And  they  aren't  the 
only  ones. 

"The  funny  thing  is,  as 
I  sit  at  the  ball  games  and 
look  around,  so  many  of  these 
people  are  people  I  graduated  with 
and  their  children  are  now  here  in 
school,"  said  Appleton,  who  was  maid 
of  honor  in  the  1969  May  Court. 

Norman  York  '69  believes  "to 
the  best  of  my  knowledge"  that  he 
is  the  last  graduate  of  Wilmington 
College.  He  received  his  degree  the 
first  Sunday  in  June  1969.  The 
next  Sunday  he  went  to  boot  camp 
and  the  following  Sunday,  Wilm- 


ington College  gave  birth  to  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington. 

He  remembers  the  day  Presi- 
dent Randall  walked  into  the  li- 
brary ringing  a  big  hand  bell, 
announcing  Wilmington  College's 
accreditation  as  a  four-year  school. 

Even  to  this  day,  York,  an  at- 
torney in  Cary,  holds  many  fond 
memories  of  his  alma  mater.  He  en- 
rolled with  the  idea  of  transferring 
after  a  year  or  two,  but  once  he  got 
to  Wilmington  College  he  was 
hooked. 

"I  felt  like  I  was  getting  a  qual- 
ity education,"  he  said,  and  he 
knew  his  credentials  would  be  as 
good  as  any  needed  for  admission 
to  law  school.  "The  teachers  made 
you  work  hard  for  what  you  got, 
which  was  a  valuable  lesson  and 
prepared  me  for  law  school." 

There  were  many  changes  as 
Wilmington  College  grew  over  two 
decades  and  the  memories  held  by 
most  alumni  are  fond. 

As  Susan  Gustafson  '55  recalls, 
"I  remember  it  as  a  very  good  time, 
a  beginning,  vet  a  progressive  time."

Join  us  for  a  reunion 

During  its  23  years  of  existence,  Wilmington  College  changed  the 
landscape  and  mindset  of  a  poor,  rural  coastal  community,  opening 
doors  for  many  people  who  thought  a  college  education  was  beyond 
their  reach. 

The  alumni  association  has  spent  months  researching  old  records, 
following  leads  and  scouring  the  phone  book  in  search  of  those 
thousands  of  men  and  women  who  attended  Wilmington  College 
between  1946,  when  it  was  a  college  center,  and  1969,  when  it  became 
a  full-fledged  member  of  the  University  of  North  Carolina  system. 

The  reason  is  to  tell  them  about  the  Wilmington  College  Reunion 
being  planned  for  October  6  and  7.  Two  events  are  scheduled.  The  first 
is  a  wine  and  cheese  reception  beginning  at  7  p.m.  Friday,  October  6, 
at  the  historical  Wise  Alumni  House  on  Market  Street.  The  second  is 
the  "Through  the  Decades"  reunion  at  8  p.m.  Saturday,  October  7,  at 
the  UNCW  University  Center  Ballroom.  Admission  for  each  event  is 
$12.50  a  person,  and  reservations  should  be  made  by  September  28. 

It  will  be  a  good  time  to  renew  friendships,  reminisce  about  the  old 
days  and  enjoy  the  fruits  born  of  Wilmington  College.  See  you  there!

First,  they  were  students,  then  ... 

They  came  back  to  teach 


BY  MARYBETH  K.  BlANCHI 

They  all  have  one  thing  in  common. 
They  returned  to  the  university  where  they  got 
their  first  taste  of  higher  education. 

Walter  Biggs  '51,  David  Miller  '62,  Richard  Laws 
'75  and  Julian  Keith  '83  didn't  return  to  take  additional 
classes,  they  returned  to  teach  them. 

Those  men,  whose  careers  span  a  time  of  growth 
and  change  for  what  was  Wilmington  College  and  now 
is  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington, 
had  distinct  experiences  but  share  a  commonality.  The 
personalized  education  they  received  as  undergraduates 
made  them  want  to  return  the  favor. 

Walter  Biggs  graduated  from  New  Hanover  High 
School  in  1949,  and  "it  was  sort  of  a  natural  thing"  for 
him  to  enroll  at  Wilmington  College,  which  had 
opened  two  years  earlier  as  a  college  center  for  return- 
ing World  War  II  veterans.  Classes  were  held  in  the 
high  school  during  the  evenings  and  eventually  moved 
across  the  street  to  the  Isaac  Bear  Building. 

"It's  sort  of  interesting  to  think  of  the  conditions 
there,"  Biggs  remembers. 

"The  library  was  a  converted  classroom  in  the 
building.  Some  of  the  faculty  office  space  was  in  an  old 
classroom  in  which  desks  were  simply  placed.  It  was 
sort  of  a  maze  of  desks,  and  you  worked  elbow  to  elbow 
with  other  people." 

Classes  at  the  two-year  Wilmington  College  were 
initially  vocational/technical  in  nature,  but  as  "the 
school  progressed  and  that  need  diminished,  it  gradu- 
ally evolved  away  from  that.  Those  programs  were  gone 


by  the  late  fifties  I  would  guess.  And  of  course  it  he- 
came  almost  exclusively  academic,"  Biggs  noted. 

Biggs  enrolled  at  Wilmington  College  just  a  few 
months  after  the  first  associate  of  arts  degree  was  issued 
to  14  graduates.  During  his  two  years,  Biggs  served  as 
student  body  president  and  was  voted  most  likely  to 
succeed  by  his  classmates. 

"You  were  getting  a  good  educational  background, 
but  being  so  closely  tied  to  the  high  school,  and  par- 
ticularly since  I  had  just  come  from  the  high  school,  it 
seemed  like  an  extension  of  the  high  school,"  Biggs 
said.  "It  certainly  wasn't  comparable  to  going  to  Caro- 
lina or  Wake  Forest  in  terms  of  student  life  because 
there  was  very  little  of  that." 

But  all  in  all,  Biggs  believes  at  Wilmington  College 
he  got  a  good  start  in  his  pursuit  of  higher  education. 

"I  really  think  that  considering  how  the  school  got 
started  ...  and  considering  the  meager  facilities  and  the 
very  meager  resources  it  operated  on,  it  did  a  very  good 
job.  A  lot  of  people  attended  that  school  who  went  on 
to  do  very  major  things,"  he  said. 

Biggs  went  on  to  East  Carolina  College  for  a  bach- 
elor ot  science  degree,  served  in  the  military,  taught 
high  school  biology  at  New  Hanover  High  School  and 
entered  graduate  school  at  Texas  A&M. 

In  the  fall  of  1960  he  returned  to  Wilmington  Col- 
lege to  teach;  one  of  three  members  of  the  biology  fac- 
ulty. 

"It  literally  was  coming  home  in  a  personal  sense 
and  an  academic  sense,"  Biggs  said.  "I  never  really  made 


UNCW      Magazine 


..    NCW    Magazine 


an  effort  to  go  anywhere  else." 

He  became  a  peer  of  the  faculty  members  who  had 
taught  him  just  a  few  years  earlier,  earning  just  $4,500  a 
year.  While  he  taught,  he  worked  on  his  doctorate  at 
N.C.  State  University  and  completed  the  requirements 
in  1969. 

During  his  33  years  as  a  faculty  member,  Biggs,  who 
retired  in  1994,  was  involved  in  the  college's  move  from 
one  building  downtown  to  three  -  Alderman,  Hoggard 
and  James  halls  -  and  its  gradual  expansion  to  serve 
more  than  8,400  students.  He  was  a  part  of  the  shift 
from  two-year  college  to  four-year  university. 

"One  thing  that  has  changed,  and  that  I've  missed 
over  the  years,  was  the  smallness  and  socializing  among 
the  faculty,"  Biggs  said.  "At  one  time  I  knew  all  the  fac- 
ulty." At   socials,  square  danc- 
ing was  their  favorite  pastime. 

Biggs'  first  year  teaching 
at  Wilmington  College,  1961, 
was  David  Miller's  first  year  as 
a  student.  Student  enrollment 
was  approximately  600. 

"I've  been  very  fortunate 
to  have  been  a  student  at 
Isaac  Bear,  among  the  first 
students  on  the  new  campus, 
and  to  come  back  and  see  all 
the  growth  and  develop- 
ment," said  Miller,  whose  ca- 
reer at  UNCW  has  progressed 
from  faculty  member  and  de- 
partment chair  to  associate 
dean  and  associate  vice  chan- 
cellor. He  is  now  director  of 
summer  sessions. 

Miller  was  recruited  from  South  Carolina  by  Coach 
Bill  Brooks  and  was  awarded  a  baseball  scholarship  that 
covered  tuition  costs,  $130  a  quarter  for  out-of-state 
students.  He  accepted,  sight  unseen. 

His  first  impression?  "It  was  a  disappointing  feel- 
ing," he  said.  "But  I  had  a  lot  of  fun.  You  got  to  know 
everyone." 

"Other  than  athletes,  most  of  the  others  (enrolled 
at  Wilmington  College)  were  local  people,"  Miller  re- 
called. There  were  no  dormitories.  "Coach  Brooks 
would  try  to  find  rooms  for  athletes." 

In  those  days  few  students  had  cars,  and  so  Miller 
would  walk  the  10  blocks  from  his  room  to  campus  sev- 
eral times  a  day.  "We  didn't  think  anything  of  it." 

Although  Miller  was  at  Wilmington  College  just  two 
years,  they  were  exciting  years.  As  a  freshman,  he  and  his 
teammates  went  on  to  claim  the  national  baseball  cham- 
pionship and  finished  second  his  sophomore  year. 

But  in  order  to  play,  the  players  first  had  to  clear 
the  field  which  was  then  a  pine  forest  where  the  dirt 


i  alter  Biggs  became 
a  peer  of the  faculty 
members  who  had  taught 
him  just  a  few  years  ear' 
Her,  earning  just  $4;500 
a  year.  He  said  it  was  like 
"coming  home  in  a  per' 
sonal  sense  and  an  aca> 
demic  sense," 


road  to  the  back  of  campus  ended.  According  to  Miller, 
"Coach  Brooks  did  most  of  the  work"  with  the  help  of 
students  and  volunteers.  "He  built  that  field  for  a  small 
expense  to  the  college." 

Miller  graduated  in  1962,  and  the  following  year 
the  college  began  offering  a  four-year  program.  He  went 
to  Wake  Forest  University  to  complete  his  bachelor's 
degree  and  to  Chapel  Hill  for  his  master's  degree.  Then 
he  returned  to  Wilmington. 

"Back  then,  my  goal  was  to  teach  and  coach.  I  had 
no  other  opportunity  to  start  off  at  a  college  level," 
Miller  said,  and  he  readily  accepted  the  job  which  paid 
$5,500  a  year.  "I  felt  fortunate  to  get  it,  and  I  wasn't 
about  to  quibble  over  the  salary." 

The  only  time  Miller  left  campus  after  that  was  for 
course  work  at  the  University 
oi  Florida  where  he  received 
his  doctorate.  "I  had  no  idea 
30  years  later  I'd  be  here." 
Watching  the  college 
grow  "has  been  exciting," 
Miller  said.  Like  Biggs,  there 
was  a  time  when  he  knew 
most  everyone  on  the  fac- 
ulty, when  "things  were  less 
complicated." 

But,  there  were  draw- 
backs. "We  couldn't  provide  as 
much  as  we  can  now.  I  think 
the  student  gets  more  for  his 
dollar  now,"  he  said. 

He  feels  privileged  to  have 
been  a  part  of  Wilmington 
College's  early  days  and  to  still 
be  involved  with  UNCW  today 
to  "see  what  it's  developed  into  -  a  quality  institution." 

When  Richard  Laws  left  his  home  in  Raleigh  in  the 
fall  of  1971,  the  Vietnam  War  was  in  full  swing  and 
UNCW  had  opened  its  first  dormitory.  He  was  one  of 
the  first  students  to  actually  live  on  the  UNCW  cam- 
pus, in  Galloway  Hall. 

Laws  remembers  that  the  dorm  was  in  the  woods 
isolated  from  the  rest  of  campus,  except  for  Brooks 
Field.  In  fact,  the  entire  area  between  Galloway  and 
King  Hall,  which  was  the  closest  classroom  building, 
was  wooded. 

The  campus  was  "very  quiet,"  and  College  Road 
was  just  two  lanes. 

"All  I  can  remember  were  the  apartments  across 
the  street  and  Kmart.  There  was  nothing  else  until  you 
got  to  Oleander,"  he  said.  "Most  of  the  social  activity 
took  place  at  Wrightsville  Beach,  both  night  and  day, 
or  on  campus." 

For  UNCW  students  in  the  early  1970s,  it  was  im- 
portant to  get  good  grades  to  keep  up  your  student  de- 


ferment  to  avoid  getting  drafted  into  military  service, 
Laws  said.  Bands  like  Pink  Floyd  and  Yes  held  concerts 
on  campus,  and  18  was  the  legal  drinking  age. 

Although  it  had  grown,  the  university  was  still  rela 
tively  small,  Laws  recalled.  "It  was  more  of  a  regional 
school.  I  can  remember  one  international  student,  Pete 
from  Peru. 

"Now  we  have  the  advantage  of  more  resources; 
then  we  had  more  individual  attention.  All  the  depart- 
ments were  much  smaller,  both  in  student  numbers  and 
faculty." 

Laws,  who  went  on  to  the  University  of  Califor- 
nia at  Berkeley,  felt  the  education  he  received  at 
UNCW  was  "very  good.  When  I  went  to  graduate 
school,  I  didn't  teel  I  was  at  a  disadvantage." 

With  a  Ph.D.  in  hand,  Laws  applied  for  a  job  at 
UNCW  and  got  it.  He  first 
taught  during  summer  school         «j 
in  1982. 

"Things  had  changed  a 
lot.  The  college  was  differ- 
ent. The  city  was  different.  I 
had  not  been  back  since 
1975,"  he  said. 

When  he  graduated  there 
were  six  faculty  members  in 
the  geology  department. 
When  he  returned  there  were 
10.  Now  there  are  16.  The 
number  of  geology  majors  also 
increased  over  the  span  of  20 
years  from  about  10  to  80. 

When  he  was  promoted 
to  department  chairman, 
Laws  became  "boss,  in  a 

sense"  over  the  man  who  had  inspired  him  to  con- 
tinue his  education  at  Berkeley,  Victor  Zulo.  "He  was 
always  the  teacher,"  Laws  recalls  of  his  former  in- 
structor who  is  now  deceased. 

Laws  believes  his  biggest  accomplishment  is  being 
able  to  help  the  geology  department  grow  and  weather 
changes.  He  expects  to  step  down  when  the  department 
moves  from  Friday  Hall  to  DeLoach  Hall  after  the  new 
science  building  is  completed  in  1996. 

Julian  Keith  grew  up  with  Brooks  Field  in  his  back- 
yard. As  a  child  he  would  watch  the  baseball  games  and 
even  be  the  team's  bat  boy  on  occasion.  He  graduated 
from  Hoggard  High  School  in  1980  and  enrolled  at 
UNCW  when  it  still  had  an  "open  door"  policy,  accept- 
ing just  about  anyone  who  applied. 

Keith  found  that  the  quality  of  teaching  and  re- 
search at  UNCW  "was  just  everything  you  could  ask  for 
as  a  student.  I  never  had  a  moment  of  disappointment. 
That's  one  reason  why  I  wanted  to  come  back  here." 

When  a  paper  was  published  on  research  he  did  as 


avid  Miller  feels 
privileged  to  have 
been  a  part  of  Wilming' 
ton  College's  early  days 
and  to  still  be  involved  in 
UNCW  today  to  usee 
what  it's  developed  into  - 
a  quality  institution," 


FALL      9    5 

an  undergraduate  with  psychology  professor  Mark 
Galizio,  Keith  said  he  then  realized,  "It's  not  just  re- 
search, you're  having  an  effect.  It's  not  just  something 
you're  doing  to  exercise  techniques. 

"When  students  and  faculty  can  work  together  de- 
veloping new  knowledge,  then  things  are  really  hap- 
pening," he  said. 

It  was  in  B.  Frank  Hall's  8  o'clock  philosophy  class 
that  Keith  "came  to  the  conclusion  I  would  be  in  aca- 
demics." Hall  and  Jim  McGowan  "inspired  me  to  be 
interested  in  intellectual  things,"  Keith  said,  and 
"Mark  Galizio  introduced  me  to  the  idea  of  graduate 
school  and  going  off  to  get  an  advanced  degree.  He, 
more  than  anyone,  set  me  on  the  course  of  making  my 
dream  of  being  a  college  professor  a  reality." 

So  with  his  bachelor's  degree  in  hand,  he  packed 
his  bags  for  Colorado  and 
"meandered"  through  gradu- 
ate school.  In  1991  when  the 
work  was  completed,  he 
learned  through  another 
UNCW  alum  and  professor, 
Robert  Hakan  '80,  that  there 
was  a  job  opening  at  his  alma 
mater. 

He  applied  but  didn't  get 
it.  What  he  did  get  was  an  of- 
fer to  work  as  a  lecturer.  It 
wasn't  long  before  there  was 
another  opening  and  that  one 
he  landed. 

"The  first  year  was  a  little 
awkward.  Former  teachers  are 
now  colleagues,"  Keith  said. 
As  one  would  expect,  adjust- 
ment in  the  group  of  psychologists  didn't  take  long, 
and  Keith  is  making  his  niche  in  the  area  of  learning 
and  memory.  His  current  research  is  focusing  on  the 
changes  in  cognitive  abilities  after  cardiovascular  sur- 
gery. 

This  past  year,  after  only  three  years  on  the  job, 
Keith  was  promoted  to  associate  professor,  one  of  the 
youngest  on  campus.  His  desire  to  be  the  best  is  in- 
spired by  his  colleagues. 

"You  feel  like  the  standards  are  very  high.  You 
have  to  be  a  good  teacher  because  it  would  not  be  ac- 
ceptable not  to  be  a  good  teacher  in  this  department," 
he  said. 

And  even  though  the  university  is  the  largest  it's 
ever  been,  Keith  said  it  still  maintains  that  "small 
school"  atmosphere.  "There's  still  a  lot  of  contact." 
As  one  of  the  youngest  UNCW  alumni  faculty 
members,  Keith  feels  he  has  to  pass  the  tradition  of  a 
"satisfying  educational  experience"  on  to  his  students.

Life  is  a  basketball  for  Boles  '77 


By  Samantha  Weinstein 

Boles  is  TQB.  Total  Quality 
Basketball.  TOTAL  basket- 
ball. 

Who  would  spend  19  years 
playing  and  coaching  basketball, 
and  then  tor  a  vacation,  after  three 
weeks  of  boys'  summer  basketball 
camp,  plan  to  watch  the  practicing 
Olympic  team  shoot  hoops? 

Sheila  Boles  '77,  the  coach  of 
Wilmington's  Hoggard  High 
School  boys'  basketball  team. 
Who  else? 

Boles  is  the  first  and  only  fe- 
male coach  of  a  male  basketball 
team  in  the  state.  She  is  now  in  her 
seventh  year  of  coaching  the 
Hoggard  team  and  has  led  them  to 
the  playoffs  twice  in  five  seasons. 
With  a  record  number  of  wins 
speaking  for  her,  she's  become  one 
of  the  finest  basketball  coaches 
high  school  athletes  and  faculty 
have  seen.  And  she's  a  woman  - 
and  a  great  coach.  In  this  land  of 
basketball  where  people  tradition- 
ally think  of  coaches  as  men,  this 
hasn't  been  the  most  agreeable 
combination  for  many  to  digest 
with  their  stadium  hot  dogs.  Yet, 
she  is  the  reigning  queen,  or  coach, 
that  is,  of  boys'  basketball. 

As  a  native  North  Carolinian, 
she  has  remained  in  Wilmington 
since  she  first  stomped  her  sneaker- 
clad  foot  on  the  shores  of  the 
nearby  Atlantic  Ocean.  Within 
two  weeks  Boles  had  applied,  been 
accepted  and  had  her  place  on 
UNCW's  first  female  basketball 
team  of  '73. 

From  her  beginnings  as  a  pre- 
med  major  to  the  switch  to  physical 
education,  Boles  said  she  always 
knew  she  wanted  to  be  a  basketball 
coach.  And  so  she  coaches.  Since 
she  graduated  from  UNCW,  Boles 
has  coached  male  and  female  var- 


Boles  '77 


sity  and 
junior 
varsity 
basket- 
ball, 
with 
stints  in 
her 

other  fa- 
vorite 
sport, 
golf,  . 
among 
the  New 
Hanover 
County  school  system  for  18  years. 

But  it  wasn't  always  one  easy 
free-throw  after  another  for  this 
tireless  woman.  Boles  almost  didn't 
get  her  now  famous  job  at  Hoggard 
because  of  some  biased  attitudes  as- 
sociated with  a  female  coaching  a 
male  team  in  the  high  school  set- 
ting. But  she  wasn't  about  to  be  in- 
timidated by  those  people  who 
called  the  business  of  high-pres- 
sured basketball  "a  man's  business." 
As  Boles  said,  "When  I  applied 
for  this  job  six  years  ago,  1  felt  if 
nothing  else  1  had  earned  the  right 
to  fail  because  I  had  been  working 
in  the  county  tor  13  years." 

Yet  Boles  didn't  fail,  even 
though  she  feels  like  she  "couldn't 
have  done  it  in  any  other  town." 
Her  modesty  is  sincere.  When  she 
found  out  that  her  acceptance  as 
the  first  female  coach  of  a  boys' 
team  set  precedence  and  was  fea- 
tured in  USA  Today,  Boles  replied 
in  exasperation,  "Don't  they  have 
any  better  news  than  that  around 
the  world?  I  mean,  it  was  so 
trivial." 

That's  only  her  opinion.  Most 
everyone  in  Wilmington  knows  her 
as  a  spirited  coach  with  a  charis- 
matic personality  and  a  list  of  ad- 
mirable accomplishments. 


When  Boles  started  coaching 
the  Hoggard  boys'  team  she 
thought  she  would  get  a  lot  of  flack 
and  possibly  some  over-critiqued 
perceptions  of  her  coaching.  She 
did.  Good  and  bad.  But  she  was 
more  concerned  about  the  possible 
negative  attention  that  her  team 
would  have  to  deal  with  playing  for 
and  receiving  directions  from  a  fe- 
male coach. 

Some  of  Boles's  critics  implied 
that  because  of  her  gender  she 
would  have  problems  being  consid- 
ered a  genuine  coach.  The  infa- 
mous locker  room  situation  was  an 
issue,  as  well  as  the  boys'  behavior 
on  the  traveling  bus.  To  those  im- 
plications she  retorted,  "What 
about  all  the  years  of  the  men 
coaching  women's  sports  teams?" 
Basically,  Boles's  enthusiasm  for 
basketball  paid  off  -  the  boys  liked 
and  respected  her,  and  she  got  her 
bus  pass. 

Boles  feels  no  differently  just 
because  she's  the  first  female  coach 
of  a  boys'  basketball  team.  To  her 
"basketball's  basketball,"  though 
she  had  always  wanted  to  be  in- 
volved in  a  male  league.  She  con- 
sidered it  a  move  to  another  level. 

At  the  varsity  level,  it's  "the 
intense  speed  of  the  game"  and  the 
"above  the  rim"  action  that  ignites 
Boles.  She  also  loves  being  a  part  of 
"the  camaraderie  of  the  guys," 
which  she  feels  "women  need  to 
learn  a  little  of  that  from  men." 

On  and  off  the  court,  Boles 
has  made  a  difference  in  the  town 
of  her  alma  mater.  For  years  she's 
been  involved  in  shattering  firsts 
and  challenging  the  records.  With 
camaraderie,  tenderness  and  in- 
tensity, Boles  is  pushing  the 
Wilmington  Hoggard  boys  to  their 
greatest  limits.

Selling  tea  to  China 


King  '72  likes  a  challenge 


By  Mary beth  K.  Bianchi 

Meeting  a  challenge  head- 
on  is  nothing  new  for 
UNCW  alumnus  Joe  King 
'72.  Why,  he's  even  trying  to  sell  tea 
to  the  Chinese. 

King,  president  and  owner  ot 
Carolina  Treet  in  Wilmington,  has 
expanded  his  family's  successful  bar- 
becue sauce  manufacturing  business 
to  include  an  iced  tea  concentrate 
that  he  claims  tastes  just  like  home 
brewed.  The  process  for  brewing  the 
tea,  which  King  invented,  is  a  secret. 

"There  are  no  other  companies 
that  make  it  to  the  standard  we  make 
it  to,"  he  said.  "Ours  is  getting  the 
reputation  of  being  the  best  in  the 
market." 

The  concentrate,  called  "Aunt 
Bertie's"  after  his  grandmother,  is 
sold  to  restaurants  and  institutions. 

"We  are  thinking  about  manu- 
facturing the  little  bottles  (for  home 
use),  but  we  won't  until  we  have  the 
production  capacity  to  come  out 
with  a  whole  line  ot  flavors,"  he  said. 

But  what  King  is  going  to  do  this 
year  is  find  out  if  the  Chinese  in 
Shanghai  like  his  tea  enough  to  im- 
port it  half  way  around  the  world. 

"We're  going  to  do  our  best  to 
sell  tea  to  China,"  he  said.  Barbecue 
sauce  is  a  different  matter  because, 
King  said,  the  Chinese  and  other 
Asians  have  such  a  large  variety  of 
their  own  spicy  sauces  that  Carolina 
Treet  seems  mild  by  comparison. 
"We  don't  feel  like  there's  a  market 
for  it,"  he  said. 

King  has  been  at  Carolina  Treet 
since  he  bought  the  business  from  his 
father,  Lenwood  King,  in  the  early 
1970s.  It  wasn't  a  transition  that  was 
taken  for  granted.  King  was  actually 
fired  by  his  father  shortly  after  he  re- 
turned home  from  Army  service. 

"He  cut  the  ties  in  a  hurry," 
King  said  of  his  father,  who  also  fired 


his  brother,  Lenwood  King, 
Jr.,  a  1958  Wilmington  Col- 
lege graduate  and  L969 
UNCW  alumnus,  knowing 
that  it  would  be  better  for 
them  to  make  their  own  way, 
not  working  tor  their  father. 

King  went  on  to  work  at  a 
local  department  store,  but  al- 
ways in  the  back  of  his  mind 
was  the  fact  that  he  hadn't 
gone  to  college. 

"So  in  1967  I  quit  my  job 
and  enrolled  full-time  at 
UNCW,"  King  said.  He  first 
chose  philosophy  and  religion 
as  his  major,  but  when  he  real- 
ized it  would  be  hard  to  find 
someone  who  would  pay  him 
just  to  sit  around  and  think, 
King  changed  his  focus  to  eco- 
nomics. 

As  an  older  student,  who 
had  graduated  from  high 
school  in  1960,  going  back  to  the 
classroom  was  "very  hard,"  King  said. 
Fortunately  he  learned  to  cope  with 
that  initial  anxiety  and  after  about  a 
month  he  said  he  "realized  compet- 
ing with  the  kids  wasn't  going  to  be 
hard  because  they  were  just  out  of 
high  school." 

When  King  graduated  in  1972, 
after  three  and  a  half  years,  he  said, 
"Daddy  came  to  me  and  asked  me  to 
run  this  business."  Although  he  had 
other  job  offers,  King  made  the  "hard 
decision"  to  rejoin  Carolina  Treet. 

Fot  the  past  23  years  King  has 
been  managing  the  business  which 
employs  several  UNCW  alumni:  his 
older  brother  who  is  sales  manager; 
his  wife,  Lise  Knox  King  '72;  and 
secretary,  Teresa  Todd  Little  '92. 
Lenwood,  Sr.,  83,  still  checks  in  at 
the  plant  every  week,  just  to  make 
sure  his  two  sons  are  doing  a  good 
job  of  handling  the  business. 


Joe  King  '72  holds  the  tea  and  barbecue  sauce  made 
by  his  company  in  downtown  Wilmington 


Lenwood,  Sr.,  really  doesn't 
have  anything  to  worry  about  be- 
cause his  son  prides  himself  on  pro- 
ducing quality  products. 

"In  42  years,  we  have  never  had 
a  recall  batch  or  a  bad  batch  ot  the 
(barbecue  sauce),"  he  said. 

As  Aunt  Bertie's  tea  concentrate 
grows  in  popularity,  King  would  like 
to  expand  the  business  which  i--  lo- 
cated in  the  original  building  in 
downtown  Wilmington,  but  past  ef- 
forts to  grow  at  its  current  site  were 
thwarted  by  the  city.  King,  however, 
really  doesn't  want  to  build  else- 
where. 

"I've  lived  in  Wilmington  all  my 
lite,"  he  said,  and  he  teels  a  certain 
devotion  to  the  town  where  he  was 
born,  raised  and  educated.  And  one 
way  he  is  sharing  his  success  is  by  es- 
tablishing an  annual  scholarship  cov- 
ering the  cost  ot  tuition  at  UNCW, 

beginning  this  fall.  ...

Classroom  instruction  transformed 
by  computers,  latest  technology 


by  marybeth  K.  bianchi 

The  boring  lecture  where  students  silently  copy 
an  instructor's  notes  from  a  chalkboard  will  soon 
be  a  thing  of  the  past  in  many  UNCW  classrooms. 

An  increasing  number  of  faculty  members  are  learn- 
ing how  to  dazzle  their  students  with  the  latest  in  com- 
puter and  audio/visual  technologies  that  can  bring  any 
subject  to  life. 

It  may  sound  more  like  a  video  game  than  a  college 
course,  but  Dr.  Richard  Ward,  assistant  vice  chancellor 
for  academic  affairs,  information  technology  and  special 
academic  programs,  said  it's  changing  the  way  students 
are  taught. 

"This  isn't  a  flash  in  the  pan.  It's  not  going  to  disap- 
pear. The  flash  is  over  with,"  he  said. 

It's  called  hypermedia,  and  it  goes  far  beyond  the  tra- 
ditional multimedia,  allowing  instructors  to  jump  immedi- 
ately from  one  information 
source  to  another  to  present  a 
complete  picture  of  the  topic 
or  idea  being  studied. 

It  takes  time  to  develop 
this  type  of  presentation 
which  incorporates  text,  ani- 
mation, sound  and  video  us- 
ing CD-audio,  CD-ROM, 
videodisc,  digital  audio  and 
digital  video  technology 
whether  it's  for  a  single  lec- 
ture or  an  entire  course.  But  it's  something  the  UNCW 
faculty  are  eager  to  learn. 

In  the  four  years  since  this  hypermedia  technology 
first  appeared  on  campus,  160  faculty  members  or  about  30 
percent  have  learned  how  to  use  it.  Eight  faculty  members 
have  developed  entire  courses  using  the  technology  and 
use  it  daily. 

"It  takes  a  lot  of  extra  effort  for  faculty  to  prepare 
these  presentations,"  Ward  said.  It's  like  learning  how  to 
teach  all  over  again. 

"To  me  the  most  important  aspect  isn't  the  technol- 
ogy, it's  the  fact  that  it  causes  faculty  to  completely  re- 
think what  they're  teaching  and  what  they  expect  students 
to  get  out  of  it,"  Ward  said. 

"When  you  start  teaching  with  this  technology  you 
have  to  throw  out  the  old  syllabus  and  class  notes  because 
you  have  this  new  capability.  It  takes  a  lot  of  work  decid- 
ing what  you're  going  to  use,"  Ward  said.  "But  it's  good  be- 
cause faculty  spend  time  improving  the  course  and  helping 


t  causes  faculty  to  completely 
^rethink  what  they're  teaching 
and  what  they  expect  students  to 
get  out  of  it*"

students  understand.  It's  a  great  way  for  faculty  to  put  new 
life,  not  only  into  the  course,  but  into  the  instructor." 

Professor  Tom  Shafer  is  a  convert  who  is  making  full 
use  of  hypermedia  technology  to  bring  his  biology  lectures 
to  life.  He  confesses  to  hating  chalkboards  and  transparen- 
cies. By  using  the  new  technology,  he  said,  "Any  photo- 
graph or  anything  that  I  can  photograph  or,  any  motion 
video  segment  on  a  tape  or  laser  disc,  even  any  actual  ob- 
ject that  I  can  bring  into  the  lecture  hall  can  be  projected 
on  a  screen'  for  a  class  of  200  to  see." 

Ward  pointed  out  that  it  takes  some  skill  to  avoid 
creating  a  "circus  atmosphere"  using  hypermedia  in 
the  classroom.  That's  why  UNCW's  Center  for  Teach- 
ing Excellence  regularly  offers  15-hour  workshops, 
taught  by  faculty  members.  It's  one  of  only  two  sites 
nationwide  which  does  so,  he  pointed  out. 

Although  other  universi- 
ties are  mandating  instructors 
to  use  this  new  technology, 
few  are  actually  using  it  to  the 
extent  UNCW  is  where  it's 
entirely  voluntary,  Ward  said. 
The  main  reason,  he  be- 
lieves, is  because  "it's  fun. 
People  enjoy  doing  it.  It's 
creative." 

And,  the  students  love  it. 
"Computer-assisted  lec- 
tures were  the  most  effective  lectures,"  one  introductory 
biology  student  commented  at  the  end  of  the  semester.  A 
chemistry  student  said,  "The  computer  visual  aids  made 
me  understand  things  that  I  couldn't  have  without  seeing." 
Students  are  even  learning  how  to  do  their  own  class- 
room presentations  using  hypermedia  technology. 

"It's  fun  for  them,  and  it's  something  they'll  need 
when  they  get  out  in  the  world.  It's  the  way  business  does 
business  these  days,  so  it's  important  for  students  to  be 
aware  of  it,"  Ward  said. 

He  believes  UNCW  is  at  the  forefront  of  this  technol- 
ogy because  the  faculty  are  committed  to  teaching  and  be- 
cause administrative  support  designates  funding. 
Approximately  $300,000  in  grant  money  and  university 
funds  have  been  invested  over  the  past  few  years  for  the 
necessary  hardware  which  is  installed  in  classroom  build- 
ings across  campus,  Ward  said. 

Also  during  the  past  three  years,  a  major  effort  has 
been  made  by  UNCW's  Office  of  Information  and  Com- 


12 


puting  Services  to  link  faculty  and  students 
with  each  other  and  with  the  world,  via  the 
Internet  and  World  Wide  Web.  Ward  said 
this  will  allow  faculty  to  develop  interactive 
homework  assignments  for  their  students 
which  can  he  accessed  via  computers  in  one 
of  nine  microcomputer  labs  on  campus  or 
their  own  personal  computers. 

One  way  this  has  been  made  possible  is 
by  the  installation  of  fiber  optic  cabling  to 
every  major  building  on  campus.  Funding 
has  been  appropriated  this  year  to  complete 
the  connection  of  every  building  to  the 
campus  network  which  means  that  virtually 
every  office  on  campus  could  have  high 
speed  ethernet  communications  to  the  cam- 
pus network  and  Internet  this  year,  said 
Doug  Jackson,  associate  director  for  Aca- 
demic Computing  Services. 

The  World  Wide  Web  (WWW  or  the 
Web)  provides  access  to  a  stupendous  vol- 
ume of  material  and  resources.  The  amount 
of  information  being  transmitted  along  the 
Web  is  staggering,  Jackson  said,  but  Com- 
puting Services  is  dedicated  to  helping  the 
faculty,  the  staff  and  the  students  develop 
the  skills  to  effectively  utilize  the  resources 
on  the  Web. 

UNCW  has  its  own  Home  Page  on 
the  Web  (http://www.uncwil.edu)  as  do 
many  departments.  A  university  commit- 
tee has  developed  guidelines  for  creating 
good  Home  Pages  so  UNCW  presents  a 
cohesive  image  to  the  world. 

The  N.  C.  Information  Highway  is  also 
winding  its  way  through  the  UNCW  cam- 
pus. Coordinator  Hunter  Thompson  said 
about  five  percent  of  the  people  traveling 
the  highway  are  taking  courses,  but  as  stu- 
dents begin  to  understand  the  capabilities 
of  the  system,  he  expects  usage  will  grow. 
An  example  is  a  student  who  defended  his  thesis  not 
standing  in  front  of  a  classroom,  but  before  the  camera 
reaching  out  across  the  information  highway. 

There  are  tew  courses  currently  offered  on  the  in- 
formation highway,  but  Thompson  said  as  registration 
and  funding  guidelines  are  established,  "it  will  be  a 
commonplace  occurrence."  This  fall,  UNCW  will  be  of- 
fering classes,  originating  on  campus,  for  college  credit 
at  Camp  Lejeune  in  Jacksonville,  and  the  highway  is 
used  to  transmit  high  level  courses  to  rural  high  schools 
in  the  area.  Faculty  also  use  the  distance  learning  facili- 
ties on  campus  to  conduct  seminars,  reach  out  to  other 
colleagues  and  participate  in  conferences. 

Advanced  technology  helps  UNCW  students  not  only 
in  the  classroom,  but  in  many  other  ways  across  campus. 


It's  called  hypermedia,  and  it  goes  far  beyond  the  traditional  multimedia    a  ■   : 

UNCW  faculty  to  jump  immediately  from  one  information  source  to  another  to  present  a 
complete  picture  of  the  topic  or  idea  being  studied  As  Dr.  Richard  Ward  demonstrates, 
this  type  of  presentation  incorporates  text,  animation,  sound  and  video  using  CD-audio, 
CD-ROM,  videodisc,  digital  audio  and  digital  video  technology 


Recently,  the  university  completed  the  successful  in- 
stallation of  an  Interactive  Voice  Response  System  tor  use 
by  the  students,  Jackson  noted.  This  system  eases  the  pro- 
cesses of  registration,  grade  query  and  even  student  ac- 
count information  by  making  it  readily  accessible  via  a 
touch-tone  phone.  Students  simply  call  to  register  for 
classes,  get  their  grades  or  determine  the  status  of  their  ac- 
count with  the  university  including  payment  of  their  ac- 
count by  credit  card. 

"This  has  been  a  very  successful  project  and  has  pro- 
vided students  with  a  much  better  method  ot  performing 
those  administrative  tasks  that  are  such  a  necessary  pari  >>t 
higher  education,"  Jackson  said.  "No  more  standing  in 
long  lines,  waiting  to  registet  for  a  course  that  is  probably 
already  full."  yy

Plan  your  gift  to  UNCW 


By  Tyrone  rowell 

Estate  planning  consists  of 
three  phases:  acquisition, 
conservation  and  distribu- 
tion. The  first  two  phases  are  goals 
for  most  of  us.  It's  the  concentra- 
tion on  the  distribution  of  assets 
that  is  difficult  to  do. 

In  fact,  some  individuals  never 
bring  themselves  to  address  the  inevi- 
tability of  a  distribution.  However,  the 
state  will  have  its  way  in  the  absence 
of  action  on  your  part.  Only  you  can 
initiate  the  estate  planning  process  and 
bring  it  to  a  conclusion.  That  is  the 
paradox  of  estate  planning:  No  one 
can  do  it  for  you,  and  few  can  do  it 
well  alone. 

The  first  step  is  to  determine  the 
nature,  value,  location  and  title  of  your 
property,  including  projected  values. 
For  some  people,  this  can  be  fairly 
simple,  done  with  little  or  no  profes- 
sional assistance.  For  larger  and  more 
complex  estates,  accounting,  legal  and 
financial  counsel  may  be  necessary. 

The  next  step  involves  who  is  to 
get  what  and  when. 

The  process  is  more  difficult  be- 
cause no  crystal  ball  is  available  to 
foretell  the  exact  order  of  future 
events.  This  is  not  a  reason  to  procras- 
tinate. Rather  it  reinforces  the  need  to 
address  the  process  in  a  timely  and  se- 
rious manner.  Change  is  a  constant  in 
life,  and  it  is  important  to  review  an 
estate  plan  on  a  regular  basis. 

The  first  and  most  obvious  ele- 
ment of  a  plan  is  a  valid,  up-to-date 
will.  With  a  will,  you  can  control  the 
distribution  of  your  assets,  including 
designating  a  gift  to  UNCW.  Several 
options  are  available  for  an  outright 
estate  distribution: 

•  A  specific  sum  of  dollars  from  the 
liquidated  estate 

•  Particular  named  property  such  as 
stock,  real  estate  or  tangible  per- 
sonal property  items 

•  All  or  a  percentage  of  the  residuary 
estate,  after  settlement  costs  and 
other  specific  distributions. 


Rowell 


Generally, 
the  most  satisfac- 
tory choice  is  the 
percentage  of  re- 
siduary value.  The 
percentage 
method  provides 
a  form  of  indexing 
the  desired  gift  to 
adjust  for  infla- 
tion or  changes  in 


your  financial  circumstances.  A  gift  of 
identified  property  may  be  thwarted  by 
a  subsequent  decision  to  dispose  of  the 
property  for  market  reasons.  If,  for  ex- 
ample, you  sold  the  property  and  ne- 
glected to  adjust  your  estate  plan,  your 
goal  to  benefit  UNCW  would  not  be  met. 

For  estates  with  varied  assets  and 
numerous  personal  objectives,  it  is 
likely  a  will  is  only  one  element  of  the 
total  integrated  plan. 

A  tool  of  steadily  growing  impor- 
tance in  estate  plans  is  the  trust.  A  liv- 
ing trust  manages  assets  during  life  and 
distributes  assets  at  death,  with  the  ob- 
jective being  to  avoid  or  to  lessen  the 
role  of  probate.  However,  a  will  is  nec- 
essary to  gather  up  assets  not  in  the 
trust. 

Other  specialized  trusts  are  more 
directly  involved  in  combining  philan- 
thropic results  with  personal  benefits. 
A  charitable  remainder  trust  is  a  good 
example. 

This  type  of  trust  provides  income 
to  individuals  after  which  one  or  more 
qualified  charitable  organizations  re- 
ceive the  trust  assets.  There  are  two 
types  of  charitable  remainder  trusts: 
the  unitrust  with  variable  income  and 
the  annuity  trust  with  fixed  income. 
Both  have  potential  for  current  in- 
come tax  savings  from  the  charitable 
deduction  that  results,  avoidance  of 
capital  gains  taxation,  improved  future 
income  and  reduction  of  estate  taxes. 

A  potentially  powerful  philan- 
thropic estate  planning  tool  is  the 
charitable  remainder  QTIP  trust.  Only 
applicable  to  plans  for  married  couples, 
it  is  a  trust  that  qualifies  for  the  marital 
deduction  at  the  first  death  even 
though  the  surviving  spouse  does  not 


control  the  ultimate  distribution  of  the 
trust  asset.  Advantages  of  the  QTIP 
trust  include: 

•  The  surviving  spouse  enjoys  all  in- 
come earned  by  the  trust  and  can  be 
given  as  much  access  to  principal  as 
desired.  Thus  the  economic  interests 
of  the  surviving  spouse  come  ahead 
of  those  of  the  designated  charitable 
organization,  which  receives  only 
those  assets  not  needed  by  the 
spouse. 

•  Two  coordinated  QTIP  trusts  -  a 
QTIP  included  in  each  spouse's  es- 
tate plan  for  the  other  spouse  -  can 
carry  out  the  separate  charitable  in- 
terests of  a  married  couple,  without 
concern  about  pressures  on  the  sur- 
vivor to  change  the  plan. 

You  may  want  to  consider  life  in- 
surance as  an  option  for  making  a  sig- 
nificant charitable  gift  with  a  small 
annual  outlay.  By  naming  UNCW 
beneficiary  and  assigning  ownership  of 
a  policy  to  us,  you  benefit  the  univer- 
sity and  receive  a  valuable  income  tax 
deduction.  If  you  continue  paying  the 
premiums  on  a  policy  you  give  the  uni- 
versity, you  can  get  an  annual  tax  deduc- 
tion. In  addition,  this  removes  the 
insurance  policy  from  your  taxable  estate. 

If  you  want  to  help  UNCW  but 
aren't  ready  to  give  up  ownership  or 
control  of  your  life  insurance,  you  have 
several  options.  You  can  name  the  uni- 
versity as  beneficiary,  keeping  owner- 
ship of  the  policy  and  the  right  to 
change  the  beneficiary.  You  can  name 
UNCW  the  contingent  beneficiary  so 
we  could  receive  the  proceeds  if  your 
primary  beneficiary  predeceases  you. 
Of  you  can  elect  a  supplemental  con- 
tract as  settlement  of  your  policies  at 
retirement.  This  plan  provides  an  an- 
nuity for  you  and  names  UNCW  the 
residual  beneficiary. 

We  welcome  the  opportunity  to 
meet  with  you  and  your  advisors  to  dis- 
cuss how  your  charitable  gift  goals  can 
be  achieved  through  your  overall  es- 
tate plan.  We  invite  you  to  contact

Division  at  (910)  350-3170.

Make  your  investment  in  the  future 


A  brand  new  year  has  now  be- 
gun, and  with  new  beginnings 
comes  the  great  expectation 
that  we  will  be  able  to  raise  vital  sup- 
port for  many  important  projects  and 
programs  that  are  essential  to  academic 
excellence  at  UNCW.  The  challenge 
we  face  each  year  is  how  to  maintain 
and  increase  these  programs  of  excel- 
lence. The  answer  is  private  support 
from  those  who  know  and  care  about 
our  university. 

Did  you  know  that: 

•  To  continue  attracting  academically 
strong  students,  UNCW  must  in- 
crease the  number  and  amount  of  its 
scholarships.  Current  resources  and 
scholarships  are  not  sufficient  for  us 
to  meet  the  needs  of  the  many  ex- 
cellent students  who  want  to  join 
the  Seahawk  family. 

•  UNCW  is  one  of  five  schools  in  the 
UNC  system  authorized  to  host  stu- 
dents who  have  been  accepted  into 
the  N.C.  Teaching  Fellows  Program. 
Private  scholarships  will  allow  us  to 
accept  an  even  greater  number  of 
students  who  will  be  our  nation's 
community  and  business  leaders. 

•  Our  faculty  and  staff  are  setting  the 
example  of  helping  to  attract  and 
provide  opportunities  for  our  stu- 
dents. With  your  help,  we  can  multi- 
ply their  efforts  and  insure  a  future 
of  excellence  for  UNCW. 

A  higher  education  offers  diversity

and  comprehensiveness  as  well  as  focus 
and  expertise.  We  can  all  point  to  our 
own  educational  environment  as  one 
of  the  most  important  tools  in  our  cur- 
rent successes.  Opportunities  afforded 
to  you  wete  due  in  large  part  to  the 
goodwill  and  generosity  of  benefactors 
to  your  alma  mater  who  came  before 
you.  The  challenge  is  for  each  genera- 
tion of  alumni  to  help  carry  the  torch. 
UNCW  needs  those  special  indi- 
viduals who  understand  how  important 
private  gifts  are  to  the  vitality  and  lon- 


gevity of  this  institution.  Your  support 
is  integral  to  ensure  that  today's  and 
tomorrow's  faculty  and  students  will 
have  the  advantage  of  opportunities 
and  resources  that  allow  them  to  re- 
ceive the  best  education  possible  at 
UNCW.  Your  investment  in  education 
is  an  investment  in  the  future. 

Very  soon  you  will  he  receive  a 
request  for  your  support.  Please  make  a 
pledge  to  make  waves  into  the  future 
of  UNCW.  Gifts  are  accounted  for  on 
a  July  1-June  30  cycle  each  year. 


Chairman's  Report 


Greetings  to  all  alumni  and 
friends  from  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  and  its 
board  of  directors. 

On  October  6-8,  we  will  hold  a 
Wilmington  College  Reunion  and  are 
inviting  all  former  Wilmington  Col- 
lege students  to  the  UNCW  campus  to 
renew  old  acquaintances  and  reminisce 
about  the  "good  ole  days." 

•  '47  -  when  Wilmington  College  was 
a  two-year  school  on  Market  Street 
across  from  New  Hanover  High 
School. 

•  '61  -  when  Wilmington  College 
moved  to  College  Road  in  the  three 
original  buildings. 

•  '63  -  when  Wilmington  College  was 
authot ized  to  be  a  four-year  institu- 
tion. 

•  '69  -  when  it  became  a  constituent 
campus  of  the  University  of  North 
Carolina. 

The  reunion  is  being  held  in  con- 
junction with  UNCW's  Family  Week- 
end and  Wilmington's  Riverfest.  On 
Friday  night,  we'll  have  a  social  at 
Wise  Alumni  House.  I'm  sure  you'll  be 
very  proud  of  it  when  you  see  it. 

In  recent  months  we've  had  many 
exciting  events  on  our  campus,  and  the 
university  is  gaining  much  local,  state, 
national  and  international  attention  for 
programs  and  events  it  is  sponsoring. 
The  alumni  association  wants  to  build 
on  that  growing  reputation. 

More  than  three  years  ago  we  em- 


barked on  a  program  to  have  the  N.C. 
Division  of  Motor  Vehicles  produce 
Seahawk  license  plates.  DMV  requires 
300  complete  applications  with  fees  in 
order  to  begin  production.  We  are  ap- 
proximately halfway  there,  but  need  an 
additional  160  applications. 

Will  you  help 
us?  Tn  place  your 
order,  call  the 
alumni  office,  re- 
quest an  applica- 
tion and  return  it 
to  Raleigh  with 
your  check.  The 
sooner  we  reach 
our  goal  of  300, 

the  sooner  we'll 

Stasios  '70  ,. 

see  our  license 

plate  on  the  highways.  We  certainly 

need  your  support  on  this  project. 

The  response  from  alumni,  uni- 
versity staff  and  students  to  our  new 
UNCW/BB&T  MasterCard  has  been 
very  good.  The  alumni  association  has 
already  realized  rewards  from  this  pro- 
gram, which  generates  royalties  that 
support  programs  sponsored  by  the  as- 
sociation. 

I  think  you  will  agree  that 
UNCW  is  "stepping  up  to  the  next 
level."  As  alumni  we  can  take  pride  in 
the  many  accomplishments  of  our  uni- 
versity. It  makes  us  proud  to  be 
Seahawks!  ,

Thousands  view  Designers  Showcase; 
profit  used  as  payment  on  L7CB  loan 


Few  will  disagree  that  the  Wise 
House  Designers  Showcase 
was  a  tremendous  success. 
During  the  21  days  in  April  and 
May  that  the  alumni  house  was 
open  to  the  public,  more  than 
5,000  visitors  viewed  the  once-der- 
elict mansion  which  was  trans- 
formed into  a  breathtakingly 
beautiful  home  through  the  handi- 
work of  17  local  interior  designers. 

The  showcase  took  more  than 
a  year  of  planning  by  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  and  Friends  of 
UNCW,  cosponsors  of  the  event. 
Altogether,  more  than  800  people 
from  numerous  community  organi- 
zations donated  their  time  and  tal- 
ents to  keep  the  showcase 
operating  smoothly  day  after  day. 

As  a  result  of  this  combined  ef- 
fort, more  than  $80,000  in  profit 
was  realized,  and  was  used  in  part 
to  make  a  payment  on  the 
association's  $400,000  renovation 
loan  from  United  Carolina  Bank. 
That  loan,  taken  out  in  1993,  is 


now  more  than  half  paid  off,  and 
the  alumni  association  continues 
to  plan  tund-raising  events  to  pay 
off  the  remaining  $175,000  and 
interest. 

About  $14,000  of  the  money 
raised  during  the  showcase  went  to- 
ward the  purchase  of  items  for  the 
house  including  window  shutters, 
handpainted  kitchen  cabinet 
knobs,  the  stove,  draperies,  foyer 
and  staircase  chandeliers  and  out- 
side coach  lights. 

Mrs.  Tabitha  H.  McEachern 
purchased  handpainted  wallpaper 
for  the  dining  room  in  the  exact 
original  French  hunting  scene  pat-

urday, with  a  pre-game  social  in  the 
Hawk's  Nest,  followed  by  the  game 
at  7:30  p.m.  in  Trask  Coliseum.  At  9

ALUMNI     NEWS 


Director' s  Message 


Wilmington  College  -  I 
was  there. 
In  1968  [entered  Wilm- 
ington College  as  a  freshman,  travel- 
ing only  two  miles  from  home  to 
obtain  the  college  degree  that  was  to 
be  my  big  ticket.  Little  did  I  know 
that  the  experiences  from  those  years 
would  have  a  daily  impact  on  me.  As 
director  of  alumni  relations  for 
UNCW,  those  memories  bring  sup- 
port from  fellow  students  and  gradu- 
ates with  similar  fond  experiences 
from  earlier  years. 

In  English  101,  I  helped  move 
"the  stacks"  from  Alderman  Hall 
that  now  fill  Randall  Library.  Wise 
decisions  and  exciting  weekend  plans 
were  made  in  the  "Pub,"  now  the 
Admissions,  Financial  Aid  and 
Registrar's  offices.

was  fun  then  and  continues  to  be  en- 
ergizing for  me  and  many  from  my 
generation  of  students.  We  supported 
our  events  in  body  and  spirit.  Con- 
certs, dances,  bonfires  and,  yes, 

classes  were  at- 
tended with  zest. 

We  were, 
and  are  today, 
proud  of  our 
early  days  and  re- 
member with 
pride  when  we 
became  the  Uni- 
versity of  North 
Carolina  at 
Wilmington.  We 
respect  our  past  and  are  charged  up 
about  our  exciting  future,  thanks  to 
the  students,  faculty,  staff  and  ad- 
ministration who  collectively  make 
up  our  distinguished  earlier  period. 

I  encourage  all  Wilmington  Col- 
lege alumni  to  become  involved  in 
UNCW  today.  We  are  making  waves 
nationwide  that  began  as  small 
ripples  from  our  past.  Become  active 
in  your  alumni  association.  Attend 
our  functions  or  volunteer  to  assist  us 
in  our  many  projects  that  benefit 
Wise  Alumni  House,  UNCW  and  its 
students. 

We  need  young  "Fledglings"  and 
fully  developed  "Seahawks"  as  well.

FALL      9    5 


After  selling  real  estate  for 
four  years,  Jim  Farlow  '66 
and  John  Pollard  70  decided 
the  only  way  they  were  going  to  be 
able  to  sell  quality-constructed  homes 
was  to  build  them  themselves. 

Now,  20  years  later,  the  pair  say 
they  ate  "moderately  successful"  but 
more  importantly,  "We  enjoy  what 
we  do." 

Since  Farlow  and  Pollard  gradu- 
ated from  UNCW  they  have  wit- 
nessed not  only  the  growth  of  the 
community  in  which  they  live  and 
work,  but  the  growth  of  the  univer- 
sity, and  they  believe  there  is  a  vital 
link  between  the  two. 

"A  big  part  of  the  growth  in 
Wilmington  wouldn't  have  occurred 
without  the  university,"  Farlow  said. 
"For  its  size,  Wilmington  has  a  lot  to 
offer,  things  that  people  and  indus- 
tries look  for  when  relocating." 

And  a  latge  university  is  neces- 
sary to  support  that  growth,  he  said. 
Not  only  does  it  create  a  well-edu- 
cated workforce,  Pollard  said,  it's  a 
big  employer  and  contributes  signifi- 


'66  and  Pollard  '70 


cantly  to  the  enrichment  of  the  en- 
tire community. 

Farlow  remembers  pastures 
along  College  Road  where  shopping 
centers  are  now  lined  up  one  after 
another. 

Although  he  and  his  partner  at- 
tended UNCW  at  different  times, 
both  were  members  of  the  same  fra- 
ternity, Pi  Kappa  Phi. 

"Being  in  a  fraternity  meant  a  lot 
to  both  of  us.  A  lot  of  people  think 
it's  all  social,  but  it's  an  opportunity 
to  take  on  leadetship  roles,"  Farlow 
said.  He  credits  the  fact  that  he  was 
president  of  his  fraternity  for  his  suc- 


cess in  the  Air  Force, 
which  he  joined  after 
earning  his  degree  in  bi- 
ology and  chemistry. 

Pollard  holds  a  de- 
gree in  business  admin- 
istration,   an   area   of 
study   Farlow   pursued 
when  he  returned  home 
to    Wilmington    after 
more  than  four  years  in 
the  service. 
Both   feel    it's    important   for 
alumni  to  continue  their  support  of 
their  alma  mater. 

"We  tty  to  be  supportive  in  any 
way  we  can,"  Farlow  said.  One  of  their 
most  recent  efforts  was  donating  their 
services  for  the  construction  of  the 
playhouse  which  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association  raffled  during  the  Wise 
House  Designers  Showcase,  raising 
several  thousand  dollars. 

"The  university  means  a  lot  to  us. 
We  got  an  education  out  thete.  We 
want  to  see  it  grow,  and  we'll  support 
it  in  any  way  possible,"  Pollard  said.

Over  the  next  few  months,  the  center  of  UNCW's  campus  will  be  transformed,  as  this  sketch 
by  8A/IS  Architects  illustrates    The  Campus  Commons  will  be  anchored  by  a  200-seat 
amphitheatre  and  three  lakes  carved  from  the  seven-acre  area  surrounded  by  Morton  Hall, 
Randall  Library  and  the  University  Union.  Walkways  and  landscaping  will  be  added  lo  draw 
pedestrians  toward  the  center  of  campus.  The  $535,000  project  will  be  funded  through 
private  donations 


UNCW-TV  brings  entertainment, 
information  to  students  on  campus 

UNCW  now  has  its  own  on-campus,  cable-operated  television  network 
on  Channel  77.  The  channel  provides  information  about  student 
activities,  meetings,  lectures  and  sporting  events,  as  well  as  movies. 
Channel  77  can  be  seen  on  any  television  in  the  residence  halls  and  in  academic 
and  support  buildings  on  campus  that  have  cable. 

UNCW-TV  broadcasts  two  movies  every  night  beginning  at  8  p.m.  Infor- 
mation about  student  activities  is  scrolled  throughout  the  day  and  between 
movies.  WLOZ,  the  student-run  on-campus  radio  station,  broadcasts  live  on 
Channel  77  while  information  is  scrolled. 

SGA  is  working  toward  student  involvement  with  the  station  by  purchas- 
ing a  video  camera  for  student  organizations  to  check  out  and  tape  their  events 
to  be  shown  on  Channel  77. 

A  TV  advisory  board,  chaired  by  Frank  Trimble,  chairman  of  the  Commu- 
nication Studies  Department,  has  been  appointed  to  decide  the  future  of  the 
station.  Several  issues  at  hand  are  the  idea  of  broadcasting  off  campus  and  the 
possibility  of  live  programming. 


CMSR  dream 
nears  reality 

A  10-year-old  dream  is  about 
to  become  a  reality  for  the 
Center  for  Marine  Science 
Research.  In  about  one  year  con- 
struction will  begin  on  a  new  center 
in  Myrtle  Grove. 

The  center's  director,  Dr.  James 
Merritt,  began  developing  a  plan  for 
the  new  center  10  years  ago,  said  Paul 
Hosier,  associate  vice  chancellor  for 
Academic  Affairs.  Both  Chancellor 
James  R.  Leutze  and  Provost  Marvin 
K.  Moss  supported  it  and  went  further 
with  it. 

"They  had  a  vision  which  ex- 
tended beyond  Jim's,"  said  Hosier. 

However,  it  was  not  until  last  sum- 
mer, during  the  state  legislative  ses- 
si<  »n,  that  UNCW  got  the  official  "OK" 
to  go  ahead  with  the  project.  UNCW 
will  receive  about  $17.5  million  over  a 
two-year  period  for  the  project. 

The  building,  which  will  be  about 
80,000  square  feet,  will  be  finished  in 
October  1998.  It  will  have  many  spe- 
cial features,  including  running  sea- 
water  which  will  be  pumped  from  the 
nearby  Atlantic  Intracoastal  Water- 
way into  aquarium  tanks  at  the  cen- 
ter, a  feature  which  Hosier  said  will 
"make"  the  facility. 

There  will  also  be  an  auditorium, 
research  space  for  marine  scientists, 
classrooms,  a  greenhouse,  a  boathouse, 
conference  rooms  and  offices  for  vis- 
iting scientists.  The  university  plans 
to  share  the  center  with  researchers 
from  other  universities. 

It  has  been  exciting  to  see 
UNCW's  marine  science  program 
grow,  Merritt  said. 

"This  facility  is  very  important. 
It's  another  stepping  stone  in  achiev- 
ing the  university's  goal  (which  is) 
the  national  and  international  recog- 
nition that  is  in  our  destiny,"  he  said.

UNCW  takes  message  on  the  road 


UNCW  continues  to  demon- 
strate its  commitment  to 
improving  the  quality  of  life 
tor  people  in  southeastern  North 
Carolina  through  the  UNCW  Days 
outreach  program. 

This  program  was  initiated  by 
University  Advancement  as  an  ef- 
fort to  take  UNCW  faculty  and  staff 
into  its  surrounding  service  area  to 
let  citizens  know  that  UNCW  is  here 
tor  them,  ready  to  initiate  new  pro- 
grams and  to  continue  making  daily 
contributions  to  their  communities. 
UNCW  also  wanted  to  promote 
higher  education  and  highlight  the 
role  it  plays  in  nearby  towns. 

Last  fall,  Chancellor  James  R. 
Leutze  led  a  contingent  ot  more 
than  30  professors  and  administra- 
tors for  a  full  day  of  outreach  ac- 
tivities in  Onslow,  Columbus  and 
Sampson  counties.  This  spring,  ac- 
tivities wete  held  in  Duplin  and 
Pender  counties,  and  on  April   30 


UNCW  Days  will  reach 
out  to  Brunswick 
County. 

The  first  outreach 
activity  of  its  scope 
ever  undertaken  by 
UNCW  included  vis- 
its to  area  high  schools, 
meetings  with  civic 
and  governmental 
leaders,  legislators, 
area  business  and  in- 
dustry and  alumni. 

The  UNCW 

Alumni  Association 
played  an  instrumental 
role  in  the  success  of 
this  outreach  effort. 
Alumni  Director 

Patricia  Corcoran  spent 
most  of  her  time  visiting 
and  hosted  social  events

Make  Your 
Dreams  a 
Reality  at 
Fantasy 
Auction 


By  Barbara  Cronk 


In  the  imagination,  everyone 
trips  through  fantasyland  where 
living  out  the  wishful  whims  of 
life  become  a  reality  in  the  visionary 
world  of  the  "mind."  Now  imagine 
your  fairy  godmother  appears, 
waves  her  magic  wand  and  wham! 
Your  fantasy  becomes  reality,  in 
real  time,  in  the  real  world,  a  real 
life  experience. 

Well,  there  may  not  be  a  fairy 
godmother  on  duty,  but  there  is  a 
next  best  thing  -  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  Fantasy  Auc- 


Beth  Cherry,  project  manager  for  UNCW  Alumni  Association's  Fantasy  Auction, 
demonstrates  one  of  the  fantasies  available  to  the  highest  bidder   An  excavator  with  a 
large  mound  of  dirt. 


tion,  to  be  held  Saturday,  April  20, 
at  the  University  Center. 

The  fantasy  auction  is  stocked 
with  dreamy  packages  to  fit  the 
wildest  imagination  with  something 
for  everyone. 

Take  yourself  back  into  the 
past  to  the  backyard  dirt  pile  where 
you  played  as  a  child.  The  place 
where  you  controlled  the  earth- 
moving  power  of  your  dumptruck, 
bulldozer  and  backhoe.  With  a 
powerful  thrust  you  pushed  the  cold 
steel  of  your  Tonka  truck  through 
the  mountain  of  dirt  molding  the 
landscape  at  will.  Perhaps  your  fan- 


tasy is  to  wrap  your  hand  around  the 
throttle  of  a  "big  boy"  toy,  a  real 
bulldozer,  and  flatten  a  man-size  dirt 
pile.  It  so,  the  Fantasy  Auction  has 
your  dream  all  wrapped  up  -  bull- 
dozer, hard  hat  and  dirt  pile  -  just 
waiting  for  a  bid,  the  winning  bid 
that  is. 

Maybe  it's  wind  and  water  rather 
than  dirt  and  steel  that  triggers  your 
fantasies.  If  so,  then  a  weekend 
aboard  a  37-foot  sloop  as  a  crew 
member  in  a  regatta,  participating  in 
post  race  festivities,  followed  by  a  lei- 
surely day  of  graceful  sailing  on  the 
Pamlico  Sound  could  be  what  it 


SPRING     96 


SPRING      96 


takes  to  bring  you  from  the 
imaginary  world  to  the  real 
world  of  excitement. 

Could  it  be 
that  your  fan- 
tasy is  a  bit 
more  up  in  the 
air  with  guys 
like  Chuck 
Yeager  and  Sky 
King?  If  your 
imagination  has 
you  up  in  the  wild  blue 
yonder  punching  holes  in 
the  sky  and  piercing  the  clouds  you 
won't  want  to  miss  bidding  on  the 
private  flying  lessons  tied  down  at 
the  Fantasy  Auction. 

Perhaps  it's  your  vocal 
aspirations  that  soar  in  your 
secret  fantasy.  Is  your  dream 
to  transform  the  music  stu- 
dio where  you  sing 
a  cappella  in  a  bathroom 
shower  stall  to  a  recording 
studio  where  you  can  cut  a 
record?  If  the  answer  is 
yes,  then  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  Fan- 
tasy Auction  has  got  your 
gig  including  airtime  on  a 
radio  station. 

The  Fantasy  Auction  is 
this  year's  major  fund-raiser  tor  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  and  the 
brainchild  of  William  G.  Anlyan, 
vice  chancellor  for  University  Ad- 
vancement. 

"The  fantasy  auction  is  really 
Bill  Anlyan's  fantasy  fulfilled,"  said 
Beth  Cherry,  project  manager.  "He 
always  wanted  to  do  an  auction  fund- 
raiser, but  he  wanted  it  filled  with 
action  and  excitement,  especially  in- 
cluding things  of  interest  to  men  and 
items  that  are  unusual." 

After  this  tantalizing  peek  at 
just  a  few  of  the  many  fantastic 
fantasy  packages  to  be  auctioned 
off,  you  can  just  imagine  that  the 
event  promises  to  be  an  evening  of 
action-packed  fun,  excitement  and 
dreams  come  true. 

The  auction  committee  has  cap- 
tured 20  thrilling  fantasy  packages 
that  answer  dreams  from  the  sun  belt 


to  the  snow  bell ,  lor  I  lie  active  on- 
the-go  dreamers  to  the  stay-at-home 
individuals.  According 
,>  Cherry  and  Pat 
Corcoran,  alumni 
relations  direc- 
tor, they  and 
other  commit- 
tee members 
have  worked 
very  hard  tor  sev- 
ral  months  to  put  to- 
gether imaginative  and 
innovative  fantasies  that  come  com- 
plete with  all  the  little  details. 

Like  the  amazing  Colorado  ski 
package.  It's  not  just  a  trip.  This

USAir's  continued  support 

of  UNCW's  special

programs.'

dream  get-a-way  for  two  comes 
with  round-trip  airline  tickets, 
lodging,  meals,  ski  clothes,  ski 
equipment  and  lift  tickets.  It  in- 
cludes everything  to  make  the 
fantasy  complete. 

Auction  festivities 
will  also  include  a  silent 
auction  featuring  up  to 
150  sensational  items 
which  will  be  placed 
throughout  the  auc- 
tion site  tor  easy 
viewing  and  bidding. 
Make  no  mistake 
about  it,  the  silent 
auction  will  have 
many  exciting  and  en- 
ticing pieces  that  will  k 
hard  to  walk  away  from. 

"Obtaining  incredible  fan- 
tasy packages  and  silent  auction 
items  has  not  been  difficult  at  al 


Cherry  said.  "Local  businesses, 
alumni  members  and  community 
members  have  responded  enthusias- 
tically with  their  support... people 
and  businesses  really  appreciate  what 
the  university  does  for  the  commu- 
nity. There  is  a  lot  of  local  pride  mo- 
tivating people."  Even  major 
corporations  like  USAir  are  assisting 
UNCW  in  this  fundraising  effort. 

The  theme  of  the  auction,  "Fan- 
tasy Wise... a  Dream  Come  True," 
says  it  all. 

"The  goal  is  to  raise  in  excess  ot 
$50,000  to  go  towards  reducing  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association's  loan 
tor  Wise  Alumni  House,"  Cherry 

said.  "Then  fantasy  is  to  re- 
tire the  balance  of  the 
$400,000  debt  on  the  Wise 
Alumni  House." 

Even  if  you  consider 
yourself  a  couch  potato, 
make  plans  to  attend  this 
auction.  Then  you  won't 
be  disappointed  by  missing 
out  on  the  couch  potato's 
dream:  a  home  entertain- 
ment center  with  a  giant 
wide-screen  TV  tor  the 
ACC  and  NCAA  basket- 
ball tournaments,  a  VCR 
to  record  and  replay  the 
games,  plenty  of  videos,  all  the 
popcorn  you  can  eat  and  a  pinball 
machine  in  case  you  decide  to  ex- 
ercise your  fingers. 

The  Fantasy  Auction 
will  include  a  buffet  din- 
ner and  live  entertain- 
ment by  the  band, 
Risse.  Tickets  are  $75

E-mail,  home  pages,  web  sites,  Internet;  a  mere  five 
years  ago  only  scientists  and  computer  whizzes  un- 
derstood these  terms.  Today  if  you  ask  any  school- 
age  child  what  they  mean,  he'll  probably  answer  with  such 
clear  definition  you  would  think  he  was  reciting  the  mean- 
ing of  a  simple  vocabulary  word. 

Using  a  telephone  was  once  thought  to  be  the  easiest 
way  to  get  in  touch  with  someone,  but  with  the  busy  lives 
most  now  lead,  this  is  no  longer  the  case.  E-mail  (elec- 
tronic mail)  has  come  to  replace  both  answering  machines 
and  regular  mail.  It  is  the  most  convenient  and  inexpen- 
sive way  to  get  in  touch  with  people  all  over  the  world. 
Regular  mail  takes  10  days  to  reach  someone  over  seas, 
while  e-mail  is  sent  with  the  press  of  a  button  and  received 
within  seconds.

By  Vickie  Yearby 


The  Internet  is  by  far  the  most  useful  and  time-saving 
tool  for  gaining  information  on  any  subject.  Many  newspa- 
pers and  magazines  post  their  issues  on  the  Internet,  some 
with  hourly  updates.  Job  postings  have  also  become  an  in- 
tricate part  of  what  makes  the  Internet  so  appealing. 
Countless  employers  post  job  vacancies  on  the  Internet 
and  job  seekers  can  place  their  resumes  on-line  for  any 
employer  with  access  to  see. 

The  Career  Services  Center  at  UNCW  has  now  made 
it  possible  for  students  and  alumni  to  search  the  Internet 
through  Netscape,  a  net  browsing  program  installed  on  all 
its  computers.  Netscape  allows  its  users  to  browse  World 
Wide  Web  sites  that  include  news,  entertainment  and  in- 
formation on  any  topic  imaginable,  like  pet  care  or  con- 


SPR I NG     96 


SPRING      96 


sumer  tips  on  products.  Users  also 
have  access  to  job  listings  from  all 
over  the  country. 

"Netscape  is  the  most  powerful 
and  easy  to  use  net  browser  that's  out 
there,"  said  Dana  Little,  career  devel- 
opment counselor  for  the  Career  Ser- 
vices Center  at  UNCW. 

The  Internet  has 
become  a  vital  job 
searching  tool  because 
more  and  more  em- 
ployers are  posting  jobs 
on-line.  The  Career 
Services  Center  is  tak- 
ing major  steps  to  learn 
about  all  the  possibili- 
ties for  job  searching 
on  the  Internet. 

"Students  are  com- 
ing to  college  a  lot 
more  computer  literate. 
People  helping  stu- 
dents must  stay  up  on 
the  Internet,"  said 
Little. 

The  center  has 
started  an  "Internet 
Resource  Library" 
which  contains  the  lat- 
est books  on  using  the 
Internet.  Students  and 
alumni  are  welcome  to 
use  the  books.  Little  said  it  is  helpful 
for  a  first-time  user  to  read  some  of 
the  literature  before  accessing 
Netscape;  however,  the  center  does 
not  expect  people  to  come  in  and  be 
able  to  do  everything  on  their  own. 
Counselors  are  present  during  the 
center's  hours  to  assist  users. 

An  alumni  room  has  been  cre- 
ated with  two  Macintosh  computers 
and  one  IBM,  all  with  Netscape  ac- 
cess. Each  computer  is  hooked  up  to 
its  own  laser  printer.  Appointments 
can  be  made  for  one-on-one  counsel- 
ing or  for  help  using  the  computers. 

Career  Services  has  also 
bookmarked  places  on  Netscape  that 
give  beginners  information  on  get- 
ting started  with  their  search.  They 
can  also  suggest  particular  sites  for 
web  searchers,  like  "Cattapult,"  a  job 
vacancy  site  exclusively  for  college 


students.  "Job  Track"  will  be  avail- 
able to  students  and  alumni  this 
spring.  This  site,  which  posts  jobs, 
was  designed  for  college  students 
and  can  only  he  accessed  by  colleges 
and  universities. 

Career  Services  is  also  reviewing 
an  electronic  resume  writing  program

and  a  program  that  will  allow  indi- 
viduals to  register  with  the  Career 
Services  office  by  computer.  With 
the  electronic  resume  program,  stu- 
dents and  alumni  will  be  able  to  se- 
lect from  several  resume  formats  and 
store  their  resumes  on  disks  which 
makes  them  easier  to  update.  It  also 
allows  Career  Services  to  respond 
quickly  to  an  employer's  request  for  a 
job  applicant's  resume  because  it  can 
be  faxed  by  modem  through  the 
computer  in  a  matter  of  seconds. 

"Gone  are  the  days  of  waiting 
for  someone  to  hand  pull  resumes," 
said  Little. 

While  many  individuals  are  fas- 
cinated with  the  concept  of  p.  mhili 
their  resume  on  the  Internet,  Little 
said  they  need  to  be  careful.  Some 
individuals  can  gain  access  to  re- 
sumes out  in  cyberspace  and  alter 


them.  Most  companies  advertising 
positions  on  the  Internet  don't  re- 
quire applicants  to  post  their  resume. 
They  can  fax  it. 

An  alternative  to  posting  your 
resume  on  the  Internet  is  to  create 
your  own  home  page.  I  lame  pages 
allow  individuals  to  he  creative  and 
show  employers  how 
they  stand  out. 

Job  searching  and 
posting  resumes  aren't 
the  only  tools  offered 
on  the  Internet  in  the 
area  ot  career  services. 
"Job  Web"  is  a  site 
that  offers  resume 
writing  tips  and  inter- 
view skills.  Informa- 
tion about  numerous 
job  skills  is  available 
.is  well  as  information 
to  enhance  your  cur- 
rent job  performance. 
E-mail  is  also  a  great 
way  to  network  with 
individuals  and  agen- 
cies all  over  the  coun- 
try. Individuals  can 
join  net  groups  made 
up  of  people  with 
common  interests. 
"Networking 
through  e-mail  gets  a  great  number 
of  responses  in  a  short  amount  ot 
time,"  said  Little.  You  can  send  an 
inquiry  by  e-mail  to  do:ens  ot 
people  at  a  time.  It  is  also  a  great 
way  to  make  contacts  in  your  occu- 
pation all  over  the  country. 

The  Internet  can  also  be  used  to 
research  a  company  to  which  you  are 
applying  tor  a  job  it  it  posts  informa- 
tion on-line. 

"The  Internet  allows  companies 
to  keep  current  information  and  ex- 
pect more  from  job  candidates  as  tar 
as  company  knowledge,"  said  Little. 

With  so  many  individuals 
searching  for  jobs  on  the  Internet, 
the  competition  and  number  ot 
applicants  would  seem  to  be 
greater  compared  to  the  response 
generated  by  a  local  newspaper  ad- 
vert isement. 


UNCW      Magazine 


UNCW     Magazine 


"It's  a  Catch-22.  Everybody  has  access  to  job  vacan- 
cies, so  the  competition  is  tougher.  But  it  still  comes  down 
to  who  is  going  to  sell  themselves  in  an  interview.  It  still 
comes  down  to  the  individual,"  said  Little.  She  also  stated 
that  you  should  let  employers  know  if  you  read  about  a  job 
opening  on  the  Internet.  "They'll  know  you're  computer 
savvy  and  it  sends  a  different  message,"  she  said. 

Not  to  worry  if  you  are  computer  shy.  It  is  a  well- 
known  fact  that  many  people  still  are,  so  most  employers  do 
not  post  job  vacancies  exclusively  on  the  Internet.  How- 
ever, Little  said  that  in  the  future  we  will  see  more  employ- 
ers using  the  Internet  to  fill  job  vacancies  and  to  send 
current  information  about  their  company  to  the  general 
public.  It  boils  down  to  the  fact  that  the  Internet  allows 
more  direct  and  faster  access.  The  Internet  will  become  a 
primary  source  for  information  and  job  searching. 


All  of  these  technological  advances  may  scare  some, 
but  with  a  little  help,  the  Internet  is  easy  to  maneuver. 

"No  matter  what  their  level  of  computer  literacy,  we 
encourage  people  to  come  in,"  she  said.  Little  also  asks 
that  those  familiar  with  the  Internet  come  into  the  cen- 
ter and  share  their  knowledge  with  counselors  and  users. 

The  Career  Services  Center  is  located  in  the  Univer- 
sity Union  Rooms  104  and  106.  It  is  open  Monday 
through  Friday  from  8  a.m.  to  5  p.m.,  and  Monday 
through  Wednesday  from  8  a.m.  to  7  p.m.  The  center  can

Dr.  Ned  Martin,  chemistry  department  chairman, 
said  he  is  excited  about  everything:  the  amount  of 

space,  the  proper  ventilation 
and  new  computer  labs. 

"We  are  delighted  with  the 
way  things  are  working  out," 
he  said. 

Carter  said  he  will  be  sad 
to  see  the  project  end. 

"Overall  it  has  been  a  very 
nice  project.  (There  have  been) 
tremendous  amounts  of  coopera- 
tion between  contractors,"  he 
said,  "What  makes  it  nicer  is  to 
have  the  faculty,  students  and 
administration  interested  in  it." 

At  least  when  the  build- 
ing is  finished,  Carter  will  be 
able  to  come  back  to  campus 
and  look  at  it.  It  will  be 
more  tangible  evidence  of 
his  hard  work.

Hyperdermic,  the  state  newsletter  for  student  nurses. 
UNCW  School  of  Nursing  tied  in  raising  $2,200  through  a  food 
bank  project  to  win  the  NCANS  Community  Service  Award. 
Adams  herself  added  lustre  to  the  nursing  school  shortly  after 
she  arrived,  when  she  received  the  prestigious  W.  K.  Kellogg 
Foundation's  Community  Partnership  Leadership  Fellowship. 


She's  not  the  only  one  of  the  UNCW  faculty  involved  in 
community  health  activities.  "We  have  nursing  school  faculty  who 
volunteer  in  community  clinics.  That's  important  because  it  not  only 
provides  models  for  students,  it  provides  a  link  between  the 
community  and  university,"  Adams  says.  "This  is  a  public  university.  It 
serves  the  community,  so  everything  our  faculty  is  involved  with 
supports  the  university." 

Supporting  the  university  is  important  to  Virginia  Adams  who 
says  she  gives  monetary  donations  to  the  university  "on  a  regular  basis 
because  it  helps  to  support  student  development.  And  if  there  are 
activities  going  on  on  campus,  I  participate!  I  want  students  to  see  I'm 
visible,  accessible  and  can  be  reached  —  not  hidden  behind  some 
door." 

With  the  support  of  the  nursing  school  alumni,  Adams  says,  the 
school  has  become  a  leader  in  the  state.  "We  have  a  rigorous  and 

competitive  program.  The  nursing  school  currently  has 


"I  participate! 
I  want  students  to  see  I'm  visible, 

accessible  and  can  be  reached  — 
not  hidden  behind  some  door." 


Community  partnerships  promote  team  effort  among  health 
agencies  in  the  community,  Adams  explains.  "Our  partners  are  the  health 
department,  medical  center  and  Southeastern  Center  for  Mental  Health. 
Our  business  is  to  provide  health  services  and  education  in  the  schools." 

Adams  says  that  through  her  Kellogg  Fellowship  project  she  and 
her  colleagues  have  identified  two  chronic  student  health  problems: 
attention  deficit  disorder  and  asthma. 


30  students  in  the  North  Carolina  Scholars  program.  We 
have  120  students  vying  for  just  70  slots  in  the  nursing 
school  each  year.  So  we  have  very  strong  students,  with 
strong  math  and  science  backgrounds." 

That  strength  shows  in  the  numbers  —  in  the  results 
from  the  state  board  exam  taken  by  nursing  students 
upon  graduation.  Overall,  the  UNCW  nursing  school  has  averaged  a  98 
percent  passage  rate.  Over  the  past  three  years,  that  success  rate  has 
been  100  percent. 

Thus  it's  fitting  that  Adams  cites  as  her  top  point  of  pride 
something  that  derives  not  from  her  work  as  administrator  or 
researcher,  but  as  a  teacher:  "Nobody  could  be  more  proud  than  1  am 
of  our  students."

CHARLES 

GREEN 


for  about  15  years  after  graduating  from  UNCW,  Charles  Green  III 
did  not  set  foot  on  the  university's  campus.  Green  said  his 
struggle  to  earn  a  bachelor's  degree  in  history,  with  a  minor  in  music, 
had  left  him  weary  of  higher  education. 

But  in  1985,  Green  returned  to  UNCW  to  take  a  class  in  freshman 
history.  The  experience  was  an  awakening  for  Green.  Since  that  time, 
he  has  been  an  avid  supporter  of  the  university,  establishing 
scholarship  funds  and  other  endowments  to  serve  the  students  and 
faculty. 

"The  greatest  gift  I  received  from  UNCW  was  the  planting  of 
certain  seeds  during  my  student  days,  which  came  into  bloom  many 
years  later  in  the  form  of  substantial  and  life-enriching  interests  in 
literature,  history,  military  history  and  classical  musical,"  Green  says. 

"It  has  been  my  aim  in  recent  years  to  establish  programs  at 
UNCW  designed  to  pass  along  an  interest  in  these  great  and  beautiful 
subjects  to  others  who  may  also  enjoy  them." 

A  Wilmington  businessman,  Green  began  his  support  of  UNCW 


Green  chose  to  name  the  fund  in  memory  of  the  late  Dr.  Thomas 
Moseley,  a  professor  who  taught  history  for  23  years  at  UNCW, 
specializing  in  Russian  history  and  the  American  Civil  War.  Green  took 
four  courses  from  Moseley  as  a  UNCW  history  major. 

"Moseley  was  a  very  unusual  teacher,  one  of  the  most  memorable 
teachers  anyone  could  have,"  Green  says. 

Green  feels  strongly  about  his  commitment  to  UNCW  and  its 
students  and  has  established  a  number  of  scholarship  funds,  naming 
them  tor  close  friends,  family  and  outstanding  faculty  members. 

He  also  has  supported  the  establishment  of  the  Wise  Alumni 
House  and  the  Katherine  K.  Buckner  Distinguished  Presentation  Series 
in  Literature  and  Creative  Writing.  In  1990,  Green  was  named  UNCW 
Alumnus  of  the  Year. 

When  Green  entered  UNCW,  the  campus  had  only  four  buildings 
and  had  grown  to  10  buildings  when  he  graduated.  The  student  body 
was  about  900  students,  compared  with  10,000  today. 

Green  has  maintained  interest  in  the  subjects  he  loved  as  an 


by  purchasing  a  collection  of  official 
records  from  Union  and  Confederate 
armies  during  the  American  Civil  War  for 
the  university  library. 

In  1987,  Green  set  up  a  scholarship 
endowment  in  the  business  school, 
named  for  his  grandfather,  J.W.  Jackson. 
The  endowment  provides  three 
scholarships  of  $2,000  a  year  to  business  students,  based  on  merit. 

Two  years  later,  Green  helped  establish  the  Thomas  Moseley 
Faculty  Development  Fund  in  the  History  Department,  the  first  fund 
established  to  support  professional  development  for  UNCW  faculty.

degree  programs  in  English,  history  and  fine  arts.  And  he  plans  to 
continue  supporting  UNCW. 


19  9   19  1    ANNUAL     REPORT 


It's  a  crisp  October  day,  and  Betty  Duffey,  marketing  and 
promotions  director  for  Domino's  Pizza  in  New  Hanover  County, 
has  just  returned  from  the  UNCW  career  day  where  she  spoke  to 
students  about  career  opportunities  with  Domino's.  Duffey  may  have 
graduated  from  UNCW  in  1994,  but  she  still  probably  spends  as  much 
time  on  campus  as  she  did  in  her  days  as  a  fine  arts  major  and 
member  of  the  number-two-in-the-nation  UNCW  cheerleading  squad. 

Since  two  days  after  she  graduated,  Duffey  has  been  marketing 
for  Domino's,  and  the  campus  has  been  her  territory.  "Our  College 
Acres  store  is  right  next  to  campus,  and  the  campus  is  our  major 
customer.  They  buy  so  much  pizza  that  we  try  to  give  back  to  UNCW 
as  much  as  we  can,"  Duffey  says. 

Domino's  has  given  back  to  the  university  in  a  big  way.  It  donates 
pizza  for  events  at  the  Cameron  School  of  Business  and  for  fraternity 
and  sorority  functions.  Domino's  provided  enough  pizza  to  feed  all  the 
freshmen  at  orientation  and  had  a  move-in  day  celebration  where 
pizzas  were  provided  for  incoming  freshmen  and  their  parents.  "We 
also  feed  the  women's  and  men's  basketball  teams  when  they  have  late 
practices,"  Duffey  says.  "In  return,  they  give  us  memorabilia  to 
decorate  the  College  Acres  store." 

Domino's  delivers  more  than  food  to  UNCW.  They  sponsor 
Roomers,  a  newsletter  for  on-campus  housing  residents,  and  The 
Domino  Effect,  a  newsletter  of  UNCW  student  activities.  Domino's 
funds  journal  subscriptions  at  Randall  Library.  And  it  joined  with  the 
campus  Leadership  Center  in  sponsoring  Seahawk  Surge  into  the 
Streets,  a  community  service  project. 

Last  March,  Domino's  worked  with  the  UNCW  baseball  team  in 
sponsoring  the  Baseball  Challenge  tournament.  And  Domino's  donates 
gift  certificates  as  prizes  for  intramural  champions,  provides  T-shirts 


for  UNCW  cheerleaders  for  camps  and  feeds  pizza  to  all  the  people 
who  attend  the  homecoming  bonfire. 

That's  not  all.  This  Halloween,  Domino's  worked  with  the  UNCW 
student  ambassadors  to  host  Wilmington  West  Rotary  Club's  Haunted 
House,  with  proceeds  going  to  Lower  Cape  Fear  Hospice.  UNCW  staff 
members  are  also  on  the  receiving  end  of  Domino's  campus  beneficence: 
The  Domino's  Good  Deed  Award  is  presented  to  the  staff  member  who 
does  something  positive  for  his  or  her  university  department. 

Betty  Duffey's  territory  does  not  end  with  the  campus,  however. 
She  and  Domino's  are  quite  active  in  community  support  as  well: 
Domino's  is  a  grand  patron  of  both  the  Azalea  Festival  and  Riverfest, 
hosts  golf  and  basketball  events  on  behalf  of  Toys  for  Tots  and  works  in 
support  of  United  Cerebral  Palsey  (UCP). 

Duffey  is  particularly  proud  of  one  community  project.  "In  the 
local  elementary  schools  we  have  a  program  called  Math  Superstars," 
she  explains.  "We've  entertained  as  many  as  200  children  at  one  time!" 

And  Duffey  is  proud  of  her  alma  mater.  "The  thing  I  like  most 
about  UNCW  is  the  closeness  you  feel  with  both  the  students  and 
professors.  Everybody  knows  everybody,  and  you  feel  so  comfortable." 

One  professor  stands  out  in  her  memory,  she  says.  "Margie 
Worthington  was  one  of  my  fine  arts  professors,  and  she  opened  a  lot 
of  doors  for  me.  Most  important,  she  showed  me  how  to  be  a  strong 
and  independent  woman." 

Now  the  Jacksonville  native  has  parlayed  that  positive  energy  into 
making  good  things  happen  for  Domino's,  her  university  and  her  com- 
munity. "My  title  is  marketing  and  promotions,  but  my  job  is  goodwill 
ambassador  for  Domino's,"  Duffey  says.  "People  like  to  see  me  coming 
because  I'm  usually  giving  away  free  pizza!  That's  why  I  enjoy  my  job  so 
much."

When  it  comes  to  Jessiebeth 
Geddie's  loyalty  to  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington,  you  could  say  she  goes 
about  the  business  of  staying  involved 
with  her  alma  mater  the  way  most  of  us 
go  about  the  business  of  breathing.  For 
Geddie,  making  good  things  happen  at 
UNCW  is  a  day-to-day  occurrence. 

Since  1988,  she's  been  sales 
manager  and  clothes  buyer  at  the 
campus  bookstore,  where,  she  says, 
"The  highlight  of  my  day  is  interacting 
with  students.  I  also  serve  on  quite  a 
few  campus  committees  with  students." 
And  she's  a  bit  of  a  surrogate  parent  for 
those  students,  too.  "Yes,  1  laugh  and 
say  I'm  the  mother  away  from  home. 
Students  will  ask  for  advice  about 
finding  a  job,  recommendations  of  a 
dentist,  a  lot  of  that  kind  of  thing." 

And  after  hours,  she  spends  a  great  amount  of  her  time  interactin 
with  students  from  the  past  —  her  fellow  UNCW  alumni.  In  1985, 
Geddie  helped  found  the  Cape  Fear  Chapter  of  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association,  comprising  New  Hanover,  Brunswick  and  Pender  counties. 
As  chairperson,  she  developed  the  Cape  Fear  Chapter  as  the  host  chapter

of  the  alumni  association.  That  means  that  all  major  campus  events  — 
homecoming,  commencement,  inauguration  of  a  new  chancellor  — 
are  hosted  by  the  Cape  Fear  alumni  group. 

"I  laugh  and  say 

I'm  the  mother 
away  from  home." 

As  chapter  chairperson,  Geddie  served  on  the  alumni  association 
board  for  three  years  before  she  became  a  lull  board  member  and  then 
chairman,  serving  from  1994  to  1995.  She  now  serves  the  association 
as  past  chairman.  Asked  what  association  projects  she  enjoyed  most, 
Geddie  quickly  answers:  The  Wise  House  Designers  Showcase! 

Wise  House,  donated  to  the  university  by  Jessie  Kenan  Wise  heirs, 
had  sat  empty  for  many  years  when  the  university  offered  it  to  the 
alumni  association.  For  the  first  stage  of  restoration  —  including 
plumbing,  heating  and  air  conditioning  —  the  association  secured  a 
loan  of  $400,000  with  a  four-year  pay  back  schedule. 

The  first  year's  project  to  help  pay  back  the  loan  was  to  "sell" 
renovated  and  restored  pieces  of  the  house  to  donors.  The  second  year's 
project  was  the  designers  showcase  that  Geddie  co-chaired  with  Connie 
Parker,  president  of  the  Friends  of  UNCW,  co-sponsors  of  the  event. 

"We  had  more  than  1,000  volunteers  over  a  three-week  period 
hosting  the  open  house,"  Geddie  recalls.  "Martha  Stewart  came  and  did 
a  luncheon  and  lecture,  and  we  had  a  gift  shop  in  the  backyard.  And  it 
was  all  kicked  off  by  a  black-tie  gala  with  tickets  at  $75  per  person.  It 
was  the  largest  such  community  effort  ever  held  in  Wilmington." 
And  a  successful  project  as  well.  The  two  projects  together  left 


the  association  with  only  a  $1 75,000  balance  left  to  pay  off  and  two 
more  years  in  which  to  do  it.  Plans  are  already  underway  for  project 
number  three  to  take  place  in  April  -  a  fantasy  auction,  where  donors 
can  bid  on  opportunities  to  assist  in  coaching  the  men's  basketball 
team  for  a  night,  to  spend  a  week  skiing  in  Breckenridge,  Colorado,  or 
to  drive  an  earth-mover!  "lust  things  people  may  have  always  dreamed 
of  doing,  but  never  thought  they  could,"  Geddie  explains. 

Motivating  people  comes  naturally  to  Geddie  who  thinks  the 
most  important  role  of  the  association  is  to  keep  alumni  involved  with 
their  alma  mater.  She  proudly  points  to  one  recent  event  as 
emblematic  of  that  goal.  "Recently,  we  had  our  first  Wilmington 
College  reunion  for  alums  from  [946  to  1969,  and  we  had  an 
overwhelming  response.  There  were  a  lot  of  them  at  this  reunion  that 
had  never  been  to  the  new  campus. 

"More  than  100  came  to  a  Friday  night  wine  and  cheese  reception 
at  the  Wise  House,  and  225  came  for  the  Saturday  night  program  and 
dance.  In  fact,  at  12:15,  when  the  music  stopped,  everyone  looked  like, 
'Can't  we  go  some  more?'" 

Geddie  plans  to  build  on  that  enthusiasm  by  creating  the  Green 
and  Gold  society  for  Wilmington  College  alumni  to  help  keep  them  in 
touch  with  fellow  UNCW  alumni.  "All  our  diplomas  are  worth  even 
more  than  when  we  received  them,  and  I  think  we  all  should  stand  up 
and  say, 'I'm  proud  to  be  a  Wilmington  College/UNCW  alum!'"

MICKEY 


When  James  Michael  "Mickey"  Corcoran  was  a  student  at 
UNCW  in  the  1960s,  there  were  only  three  buildings  on 
campus.  The  university's  current  administration  building  was  the 
library,  and  the  large  live  oaks  that  adorn  campus  were  only  saplings. 

Like  the  live  oaks,  the  university  has  grown  from  a  sapling  into  a 
prominent  institution  for  higher  learning.  Corcoran,  president  of 
Woodruff  Distributing  Co.  in  New  Bern,  is  proud  of  the  way  the 
university  has  grown  and  is  pleased  to  have  been  a  part. 

Corcoran  is  a  member  of  the  UNCW  Board  of  Trustees  and  has 
served  on  the  UNCW  alumni  board.  He  also  is  a  member  of  the 
Seahawk  Club  and  a  supporter  of  UNCW  athletics. 

"I've  always  cared  through  the  years  and  tried  to  make  the 
contributions  that  I  could,"  he  says.  "I  wanted  to  help  the  other 
students  who  came  after  me,  just  as  someone  else  contributed  when  I 
was  there." 

Corcoran  is  particularly  proud  of  the  university's  emphasis  on 
quality  undergraduate  teaching.  He  remembers  how  his  own 
professors  inspired  and  taught  him. 

"They  made  a  lasting  impressing  on 
me  personally  and  in  my  career.  Good 
professors  inspire  you  to  reach  down  and 
think,  to  come  up  with  your  own  answers,' 
he  says. 


C  0  R  C  0 


He  also  is  pleased  with  the  support  that  the  university  provides  to 
its  undergraduates  from  career  counseling  to  tutorial  programs  to 
technology. 

Corcoran  is  proud  that  UNCW  is  offering  a  master's  degree 
program  in  marine  science  program  that  "will  solidify  us  as  a  leader  in 
that  field  on  the  East  Coast,"  he  says. 

As  an  avid  Seahawk  supporter,  Corcoran  enjoys  Seahawk 
basketball  most  of  all.  He  feels  athletic  teams  can  serve  as 
ambassadors  for  UNCW. 

Two  of  Corcoran's  three  daughters  have  attended  UNCW.  One 
daughter  is  a  senior  majoring  in  history  and  government,  and  another 
completed  her  freshman  year  at  UNCW.  "It's  kind  of  exciting  to  have 
your  children  go  to  school  where  you  went,"  he  says. 


"Good  professors  inspire  you 
to  reach  down  and  think, 

to  come  up  with 

your  own  answers." 


Corcoran  encourages  other  alumni  to  contribute  to  UNCW,  saying 
"the  return  on  your  investment  is  a  better  society."

ALUMNI    PROFILE 


Support  comes  in  many  ways  from  active  alum 


BY  marybeth  k.  bianchi 

A  "maternal  instinct"  is 
what  has  motivated  Janice 
Specter  Kingoff  to  volun- 
teer her  energy  and  talents  to  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington  and  Wilmington  area 
organizations. 

"I've  done  a  lot  of  things  in  the 
community,  and  I've  learned  a  great 
deal.  I'm  very  interested  in  UNCW 
and  helping  it  grow,"  said  Kingoff. 
"I  have  a  special  interest,  like  a  ma- 
ternal interest." 

For  her  many  efforts  over  the 
years  she  was  presented  with  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association's  1996 
Distinguished  Alumna  Award  dur- 
ing Homecoming  weekend. 

"It's  important  to  help  people 
and  help  get  things  done.  I  like  do- 
ing it.  I  get  a  lot  of  satisfaction  from 
helping,"  she  said.  Until  illness 
slowed  her  pace  in  recent  years, 
Kingoff  always  found  time  between 
family  and  business  responsibilities 
to  support  important  causes. 

Kingoff  was  a  nontraditional 
student  at  UNCW.  She  had 
dropped  out  of  UNC-G  to  marry 
and  raise  three  sons,  but  she  always 
heard  her  mother's  voice  telling  her: 
"Anything  that  wasn't  right  in  my 
life  was  my  fault  because  I  didn't 
finish  college." 

So  in  1975  she  went  back  to 
school,  and  by  1977  she  had  earned 
a  bachelor's  degree  in  business. 

In  1978  she  joined  Friends  of 
UNCW  and  has  served  on  its  board 
of  directors  ever  since.  She  has  also 
been  the  group's  president  and  is 
noted  for  her  work  on  the  gifts  com- 
mittee, which  decides  what  the 
money  raised  will  be  spent  on. 

"Whatever  we  take  in  we  give 
back.  The  only  thing  we  spend 
money  on  is  stamps  and  invitations, 
and  even  the  interest  covers  that," 
Kingoff  said.  "If  we  raised  $8,300, 
we'd  give  away  $8,000.  It  does  make 


a  difference. 

"I  enjoy  doing  all  that 
work.  It's  very  gratifying. 
Everything  goes  back  to  the 
school." 

Money  raised  by  the 
Friends  has  been  used  to 
help  faculty  members  get 
those  things  that  would  pro- 
vide extra  incentive  to  then 
students,  teaching  aids, 
flags,  a  piano  for  the  music 
department,  books  tor  the 
library,  a  breathalyzer  tor  the 
campus  police  and  comput- 
ers. However,  the  "best  gift" 
or  the  one  most  appreciated 
by  students  was  a  television 
set  for  the  University 
Union,  Kingoff  said. 

Kingoff  is  also  a  big  sup- 
porter of  UNCW's  Museum 
of  World  Cultures,  founded 
by  retired  professor  Dr. 
Gerald  Shinn. 

"Dr.  Shinn  said  I  was 
the  first  person  to  sign  up,"  she 
said.  A  unique  feature  of  the 
UNCW  campus,  the  museum  is  not 
based  in  a  single  location,  but 
rather  consists  of  dozens  of  artifacts 
displayed  in  all  academic  and  ad- 
ministrative buildings. 

"It's  there  for  them  to  soak  up 
and  enjoy.  Students,  by  osmosis,  will 
learn  culture,"  Kingoff  explained. 

When  the  Friends  joined  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  in 
sponsoring  the  Wise  Alumni  House 
Designers  Showcase,  illness  kept  Kin- 
goff from  active  participation.  Still, 
she  wanted  a  role  in  the  project. 

"I  had  really  wanted  to  do  so 
much,"  she  said. 

Kingoff  did  find  a  way  to  help. 

The  Cape  Fear  Garden  Club 
donated  money  for  renovation  of 
the  sunken  garden,  but  as  Kingoff 
said,  "In  every  renovation,  there's 
something  that  gets  pushed  aside, 


Janice  Kingoff  '77  and  her  family  donated  the  cascading 
water  fountain  at  the  Wise  Alumni  House  sunken  garden 
in  memory  of  their  son 

and  I  happened  to  fill  that  void.  It 
was  my  way  of  sharing  and  being  a 
part,  which  was  important  to  me." 

She  and  her  family  purchased  a 
cascading  fountain  which  was 
placed  at  the  center  ot  the  garden, 
and  gave  it  to  Wise  Alumni  House 
in  memory  ot  their  son,  Robert 
Alex  Kingoff. 

"He  was  a  lawyer  and  a  singer, 
always  in  the  middle  of  everything, 
babbling.  It  was  a  fining  gift,"  she 
said  with  a  smile. 

When  she's  not  volunteering, 
Kingoff  still  enjoys  coming  to  cam- 
pus whether  it's  for  an  Adult  Schol- 
ars luncheon  sponsored  by  the 
Division  for  Public  Service  and  Ex- 
tended Education  or  for  a  Seahawk 
basketball  game. 

"Of  course,  I'm  a  Seahawk," 

she  said.  "We  love  the  games,  and 

it's  nice  to  have  a  reason  to  come 

over  to  the  campus."

FACULTY 


Lawson  takes  volunteer  effort  to  Europe 


By  Ben  Tew 

Just  part  of  a  large  effort.  That's 
how  Dr.  Luther  Lawson,  recipi- 
ent of  the  UNCW  Alumni  As- 
sociation 1996  Distinguished 
Citizen  Award,  describes  his  in- 
volvement on  campus  and  in  the 
community. 

Lawson,  who  has  taught  eco- 
nomics in  the  Cameron  School  of 
Business  at  UNCW  since  1983, 
said  all  of  the  professors  in  the 
Cameron  School  are  active  volun- 
teers. They  feel  professors  who  be- 
lieve in  their  university  and 
community  should  contribute. 

Lawson's  contribution  began 
with  his  involvement  on  the 
board  ot  directors  at  the 
Wilmington  YMCA. 

"I  was  just  one  little  cog,"  he 
said  about  his  involvement  in  a 
capital  campaign  effort  to  pur- 
chase a  new  swimming  pool  for 
the  YMCA  and  improve  the 
structure  of  the  YMCA  building. 

In  1992,  he  received  the 
Distinguished  Fund-Raising 
Award  for  his  work  as  chairman 
of  a  sustaining  drive  to  taise 
money  tor  scholarships  for  kids 
who  couldn't  afford  YMCA 
membership  fees. 

As  part  of  the  Wilming- 
ton Chamber  of  Commerce 
education  foundation  commit- 
tee, Lawson  promotes  the  link 
between  the  public  school  sys- 
tem and  the  business  commu- 
nity. He  realizes  the 
importance  of  keeping  the 
business  community  in  touch 
with  young  students  while 
giving  students  exposure  to 
today's  business  world. 

He  was  insttumental  in 
bringing  Junior  Achievement  to 
Wilmington  by  establishing  a 
partnership  between  Junior 
Achievement  of  Charlotte  to 


help  get  the  local  organization  off 
the  ground.  For  the  last  13  years  he 
has  been  the  area  coordinator  for 
Junior  Achievement  in  New  Ha- 
nover and  Brunswick  counties. 

Since  1988  he  has  served  as 
chairman  of  Junior  Achievement's 
executive  council  which,  with  help 
from  an  operating  committee,  raises 
money  to  bring  business  men  and 
women  into  ninth  grade  classrooms 
to  teach  economics.  He  also  assists 
in  training  teacher/coordinators  and 
implementing  and  monitoring  pro- 
grams which  have  involved  more 
than  \000  area  students. 

"I  would  not  be  as  successful

not  tor  the  help  of  a  lot  of  people," 
commented  Lawson.  While  work- 
ing with  Junior  Achievement  in 
Wilmington  he  has  built  participa-

the  33  currently  involved. 

Due  to  his  active  involvement

International. 

"1  could  never  get  everything 
done  right  in  three  months," 
he  noted,  and  so  he  will 
spend  July  to  December  visit- 
ing seven  former  communist 
countries  to  implement  Junior 
Achievement  and  develop  li- 
aisons for  UNCW  and  the 
Cameron  School  of  Business. 

He  also  serves  as  the  asso- 
ciate director  tor  the  Centet

You  can  insure  the  future  of  UNCW  students 


BY  M.  TYRONE  ROWELL 


you 


It  you  have  possessions 
have  an  estate.  Their  orderly 
care  during  your  lifetime  repre- 
sents financial  management.  Their 
disposition  after  your  Lifetime  is 
called  estate  settlement.  Deciding 
in  advance  how  this  will  he  done 
is  known  as  estate  planning.  It's 
that  simple. 

And  yet,  tor  many  reasons,  it's 
easy  to  put  off  estate  planning. 
Today's  pleasures  and  challenges 
compete  for  our  attention.  Many 
UNCW  and  Wilmington  College 
alumni  are  well  established  in  their 
careers  and  are  now  reviewing  their 
estate  plans.  Some  estate  planning 
documents  include  your  will,  a 
trust,  lite  insurance  or  gifts  of  ap- 
preciated property.  These  items 
may  make  it  possible  for  you  to 
make  long-range  plans  to  support 
UNCW  through  the  establishment 
of  a  scholarship  or  to  support  a  pro- 
gram which  was  especially  helpful 
to  you  during  your  college  days. 

As  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington  nears  its 
50th  anniversary,  a  growing  num- 
ber of  alumni  and  friends  are  using 
this  occasion  to  establish  a  campus 
scholarship  in  memory  of  a  family 
member  or  favorite  professor.  Some 
of  these  donors  have  found  that 
the  perfect  way  to  establish  this 
program  is  through  the  gift  of  life- 
insurance. 

Most  of  us  invest  in  insurance 
to  provide  protection  for  family 
during  the  times  they  need  it  most; 
however,  conditions  change. 
Maybe  your  children  or  other  de- 
pendents are  now  grown  and  you 
have  accumulated  an  estate  of 
other  assets.  You  may  not  need  all 
that  life  insurance  coverage.  Such  a 
policy  could  be  the  perfect  vehicle 
for  funding  a  scholarship  at 
UNCW.  In  addition  to  providing  a 


Rowel  I 


memorial  gift, 
the  donor  could 
also  receive  an 
income  tax 
charitable  de- 
duction when 
UNCW  is 
named  as  ben- 
eficiary of  a 
policy  and  you 
irrevocably  as- 
sign to  us  all  incidents  of  ownership. 

If  you  wanted  to  fund  a  schol- 
arship by  contributing  a  paid-up 
policy,  your  income  tax  charitable 
deduction  is  based  on  what  it 
would  cost  to  replace  the  policy 
at  your  present  age  and  health. 
Policies  on  which  you  continue 
to  pay  premiums  can  also  be  used 
to  make  a  gift  to  UNCW.  If  you 
continue  to  pay  the 
premiums,  you 
are  entitled 
to  a  chari- 
table deduc- 
tion in  the 
amount  of 
the  annual 
premium. 

The 
university 
is  now 
partici- 
pating in 
a  special 
insurance 
program 
which  uses  a 
five-year  pre- 
mium to  fund  ei- 
ther a  $25,000,  $50,000  or 
$100,000  life  insurance  policy  to 
benefit  UNCW.  During  this  five- 
year  period,  not  only  will  the 
policy  be  completely  paid  tor  but  a 
portion  of  the  premium  will  be  re- 
turned to  the  university  to  assist 
with  the  annual  fund  drive.  This 


allows  you  in  provide  both  a  cur- 
rent and  deferred  gill  to  UNCW. 

The  program  involves  a  donor 
making  a  five-year  pledge  to  cover 
the  premium  costs  which  are  based 
on  his/her  age  and  general  health 
condition.  The  donor  allows  the 
university  to  purchase  an  insurance 
policy  on  his/her  lite.  The  policy 
would  be  owned  by  UNCW  which 
would  also  be  the  beneficiary.  It  re- 
quires the  donor  to  make  five  an- 
nual gills  to  (he  university. 

There  are  several  advantages  of 
using  a  lite  insurance  policy  to  make 
a  gift  to  UNCW.  It  is  possible  to 
make  a  larger  gift  than  might  be 
possible  otherwise  and  the  amount 
may  be  guaranteed.  Also,  such  gifts 
are  not  subject  to  probate  nor  can 
they  be  contested  by  heirs. 

An  endowed  scholarship  is  a 
perfect  way  to  cre- 
ate a  perma- 
nent 
memorial 
for  a 
friend  or 
family 
member.  It 
will  always 
be  part  of 
the  univer- 
sity financial 
aid  program 
and  be  listed 
in  appropriate 
university  publ- 
ications. It  you 
have  any  ques- 
tions or  would  like 
to  discuss  this  pro- 
gram or  any  other  way  to  benefit 
UNCW  please  call  the  university 
foundation  office  at  (010)  395-3170.

The  Fund-amentals  of  Giving 

UNCW's  Loyalty  Fund 


BY  MICHELLE  CONGER 

The  UNCW  Loyalty  Fund  is 
the  university's  unrestricted 
giving  program. 

Private  gifts  support  many  vi- 
tally important  projects  and  pro- 
grams not  budgeted  through  a 
specific  college  or  department.  These 
programs  cut  across  many  disciplines 
and  enhance  the  overall  quality  of 
life  throughout  UNCW's  campus. 

U.S.News  &  World  Report  has 
ranked  UNCW  among  the  top  20  re- 
gional universities  in  the  South.  This 
achievement  was  in  part  the  result  of 
excellent  faculty  and  student  enrich- 
ment programs  made  possible  through 
private  gifts. 

The  true  challenge  we  face  each 
year  is  how  to  maintain  these  programs 
in  light  of  continued  state  budget  cuts 
and  declining  appropriations.  The  an- 
swer is  private  support.  The  challenge 
our  staff  accepts  is  to  help  our  alumni 
and  friends  understand  just  how  critical 
this  need  is  and  what  a  significant  and 
sometimes  lifelong  difference  their  con- 
tributions can  make. 

Did  you  know  that: 

•  Some  scholarships  are  only  par- 
tially paid  because  we  do  not  have 
enough  money  to  endow  the  full 
amount. 

•  UNCW  has  wonderful  Teaching 
Fellows  and  honors  programs,  but 
enrollment  for  the  total  number  of 
students  is  impossible  because  of  a 
lack  of  funding. 

•  Faculty  and  staff  oftentimes  take 
money  out  of  their  own  pockets 
to  send  students  and  themselves 
to  special  programs  because  there 
is  no  budget  for  them  to  do  this. 
The  Loyalty  Fund  strives  to  sup- 
port these  programs  and  more.  And,  as 
UNCW  continues  to  grow,  so  too  will 
its  needs.  Sufficient  resources  must  be 
found  to  ensure  that  quality  educa- 
tional opportunities  remain  available 


to  faculty,  students  and  our  south- 
eastern North  Carolina  community. 

LJNCW  needs  those  special  in- 
dividuals, businesses  and  corpora- 
tions who  understand  how 
important  private  gifts  are  to  the  es- 
sence and  longevity  of  this  institu- 
tion. Your  support  is  integral  in 
ensuring  that  tomorrow's  faculty  and 
students  will  have  the  advantage  of 
opportunities  and  resources  that  al- 
low them  to  receive  the  best  higher 


education  possible  at  UNCW.  Your 
investment  in  education  is  an  in- 
vestment in  the  future. 

If  you  have  not  joined  the  many 
supporters  of  UNCW's  Loyalty  Fund, 
please  consider  a  gift  this  year.  If  you 
have  pledged  a  gift,  we  wish  to  ex- 
press our  sincere  thanks. 

Michelle  Conger  is  the  director 
of  development  in  UNCW's  Divi- 
sion for  University  Advancement. 


Camerons  honored  for  philanthropy 


Long-time  supporters  of  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington,  Dan,  Betty,  Bruce 
and  Louise  Cameron  were  named 
19L)5  Philanthropists  of  the  Year 
by  the  Cape  Fear  Area  Chapter  of 
the  National  Society  of  Fund-rais- 
ing Executives. 

The  Cameron  family  has  long 
been  recognized  for  its  influence  in 
the  growth  of  the  Wilmington  area. 
The  family's  good  works  have 


touched  many  organizations  includ- 
ing the  YWCA,  the  Boy  Scouts,  the 
Community  Boys  and  Girls  Club, 
New  Hanover  Regional  Medical 
Center,  Lower  Cape  Fear  Hospice, 
the  United  Way  and  UNCW's 
Cameron  School  of  Business. 

The  frequency  of  support  and 
wide  range  of  interests  clearly  iden- 
tity the  Cameron  family  as  a  major 
factor  in  the  growth  and  health  of 
this  region.

to  Wise  House 


Support  for  UNCW's  Wise 
Alumni  House  continues  to 
blossom,  and  the  alumni  as- 
sociation is  getting  ever  closer  to 
paying  off  its  $400,000  debt  to 
United  Carolina  Bank. 

In  an  effort  spearheaded  by 
alumni  association  board  mem- 
ber, John  Baldwin  72,  the  broth- 
ers of  Pi  Kappa  Phi  decided  to 
take  on  the  challenge  of  purchas- 
ing the  grand  room  at  Wise 
Alumni  House  which  bears  a  price- 
tag  of  $25,000.  So  far  they  have 
pledged  a  total  of  $2  1,000  toward 
that  goal. 

In  addition  to  Baldwin,  brothers 
who  have  made  $500  to  $1,000 
pledges  include  Larry  Brammer  71,

in  a  special  ceremony. 

While  many  of  the  smaller, 
less  expensive  parts  of  the  house, 
like  columns  and  mantels,  have  al- 
ready been  purchased,  there  are 
still  several  rooms  available  for 
$25,000  to  $30,000  which  can  be 
taken  on  by  a  group  of  alumni.

Association  proposes  bylaw 
changes  for  AAGA  membership 


The  African  American 
Graduates  Association 
(AAGA)  started  with  only 
nine  members.  Now  it  maintains 
contact  with  more  than  250  people 
and  is  still  growing.  The  success  of 
the  organization  has  it  moving  to- 
ward even  larger  things. 

AAGA  was  founded  on  No- 
vember 19,  1989.  According  to 
Ronald  Hamm  '90,  president  of 
AAGA,  it  was  established  as  a  net- 
work of  support  and  fellowship 
among  African  American  graduates 
from  UNCW. 

"We  wanted  to  offer  support  to 
the  minority  students  currently  en- 
rolled in  the  university  and  to  keep 
in  contact  with  them  and  help 
them  professionally  once  they 
graduate,"  he  said. 

Another  major  focus  of  the  or- 
ganization has  been  to  recommend 
students  and  faculty  to  the  univer- 
sity. They  help  support  and  work 
closely  with  the  Office  of  Minority 
Affairs  so  that  they  can  have  a  con- 
nection with  students  and  happen- 
ings on  campus. 

In  order  to  keep  unity  within

Game  on  April  20. 

Rugby  players  who  attended 
and/or  played  tor  UNCW  are  en- 
couraged to  participate  in  a  week- 
end ot  rugby,  golf  and 
reminiscence.  The  match  will  take 
place  at  Wrightsville  Beach  Park 
on  Causeway  Drive.

more  information. 


graduates  and  students,  AAGA  was 
started  and  has  continued  to  operate 
separately  from  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association.  But  that  is  expected  to 
change  within  the  next  year. 

"It  was  our  hope  to  establish  an 
effective  network  amongst  ourselves 
and  then  merge  and  become  a  con- 
stituent chapter  of  the  alumni  asso- 
ciation," said  Hamm. 

Tat  Corcoran  '72,  director  of 
Alumni  Relations,  explained  that 
the  alumni  association  currently 
recognizes  only  chapters  estab- 
lished on  the  basis  of  geographic 
location  or  school  but  that  the  as- 
sociation has  proposed  revising  its 
by-laws  so  AAGA  will  be  recog- 
nized as  a  constituent  chapter  of 
the  UNCW  Alumni  Association. 
She  believes  the  joint  relationship 
will  benefit  all  alumni. 


Piano  finds  home 
at  'Miss  Jessies' 

The  sound  of  music  is  echoing 
through  Wise  Alumni  House  thanks 
to  Norma  Sellars  Grabenstein.  Mrs. 
Grabenstein,  who  attended  Wilm- 
ington College  from  1954  to  1956, 
donated  an  antique  Knabe  square 
grand  piano  to  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association. 

This  piano,  which  accents  Miss 
Jessie's  music  room,  was  donated  by 
Mrs.  Grabenstein  in  memory  of  her 
late  husband,  Eugene  Edward 
Grabenstein,  who  restored  the  un- 
usual, ornately  carved  rosewood  pi- 
ano to  its  current  condition. 

Mrs.  Grabenstein  has  many 
fond  memories  and  lifelong  friend- 
ships from  her  college  days.  Looking 
back  on  at  those  times,  she  says, 
"The  two  best  years  ot  my  life  were 
spent  at  Wilmington  College." 


Aquahawks  come  to  the  aid 
of  UNCW  swimmers ,  divers 


The  Aquahawks  are  making 
waves. They  are  causing 
swells  of  support  for  their 
favorite  athletic  teams  on  campus. 

"The  door  was  opened  for  the 
possibility  of  this  group  when  the 
university  developed  a  system  to  al- 
low donations  to  go  to  a  specific 
organization  like  the  swim  team," 
said  Sam  O'Leary  '84,  one  of  the 
more  active  members.  "We  all 
wanted  to  support  the  swimming 
and  diving  teams." 

The  group  got  the  ball  rolling 
last  spring  with  a  weekend  social. 
They  stayed  in  the  residence  halls, 
held  an  alumni  swim  meet  and  de- 
cided to  form  a  club  solely  to  sup- 
port the  swim  team. 

"We  just  like  to  have  a  lot  of 


tun  and  support  the  swim  team, 
too,"  O'Leary  said. 

With  help  from  Kevin  Donovan, 
the  executive  director  of  the  Sea- 
hawk  Club,  contributions  for  the 
swimming  and  diving  teams  were  es- 
tablished on  three  levels.  Benefits  for 
Charter  Members  -  the  highest  level 
ot  contribution  which  requires  a 
$1,000  annual  pledge  over  a  four- 
year  period  -  include  a  special  en- 
graved plaque,  an  official  team 
warm-up  suit,  name  recognition  on 
UNCW's  new  electronic  scoreboard 
and  the  Seahawk  newsletter. 

The  Aquahawks  hope  with 
their  support  the  swimming  and 
diving  teams  will  bring  the  Colo- 
nial Athletic  Association  champi- 
onship trophy  home  to  UNCW.

D  i rector} s  Message 


In  our  49  years  as  an  institution 
of  higher  learning,  we  have  ac- 
quired approximately  23,000 
Wilmington  College  and  UNCW 
Alumni.  During  the  next  rive  years, 
we  will  experience  an  enormous 
amount  of  growth  to  propel  our 
numbers  to  12,000.  The  potential 
th.it  these  additional  9,000  alumni 
bring  to  UNCW  and  our  current 
numbers  is  wondrous  to  imagine. 

Our  largest  number  of  alumni 
is  located  in  our  own  backyard  - 
southeastern  North  Carolina.  They 
have  plenty  of  opportunities  to  par- 
ticipate in  events,  activities,  ex- 
tended education  and   volunteer 
service  to  UNCW.  We  provide 
many  services  and  a  significant 
amount  of  revenue  to  the  univer 
sity  by  our  contributions  of  dollars, 
time  and  talents. 

With  growth  of  our  alumni 
base  comes  the  opportunity  to  in- 


;*feJ» 


crease  in  significant  ways  our  sup- 
port to  the  institution  that  has 
served  us  so  well. 

We  are  the  doers  and  donors,  a

Chairman's  Report 


Did  you  ever  daydream  when 
you  were  sitting  in  your  En- 
glish 101  class? 
Or,  did  your  mind  wander 
when  the  professor  spoke  ot  the  re- 
lationship between  bond  interest 
rates  and  stock 
prices. 

Or  did  it 
happen  to  you 
while  driving  to 
work  one  morn- 
ing? You  were 
stopped  at  a  red 
light  and  you 
imagined  your- 
self driving  a 

j.    j  Sfas/'os  '70 

new  candied 

apple  red  BMW.  Then,  the  jerk  be- 
hind you  blew  his  horn  and  reality 
set  in. The  light  turned  yellow,  and 
you  almost  missed  your  turn. 
What's  your  fantasy? 


The  UNCW  Alumni 
Association's  fantasy  is  to  pay  off 
the  remaining  mortgage  balance 
on  our  loan.  We  plan  to  do  that 
with  the  proceeds  from  our  Fan- 
tasy Auction  which  will  take  place 
on  April  20. 

Last  yeat,  our  primary  fund 
raiser  was  the  Wise  House  Design- 
ers Showcase.  The  results  exceeded 
our  expectations.  We  need  your 
support  this  year  to  make  our  Fan- 
tasy Auction  equally  as  successful. 

Come  join  your  fellow  alumni, 
friends,  university  faculty  and  staff 
as  we  fulfill  out  fantasies.  Mark 
your  calendar  now.  The  date  is 
April  20  and  the  location  is  the 
University  Center  Ballroom.  Be 
there  or  you  may  miss  the  opportu- 
nity to  see  your  fantasy  come  true.

Two  hurricanes  topple  trees  around  campus 


Towering  pine  Irees  on  campus 
near  Westside  Hall  were 
uprooted  and  snapped  off  by  the 
winds  and  rains  of  Hurricane 
Fran.  More  than  400  trees  were 
damaged 


A  section  of  copper 

roofing  hangs  from 

King  Hall  which  was 

surrounded  by  downed 

trees  following 

Hurricane  Fran. 


Socked  hy  two  hurricanes  in  one 
season,  the  UNCW  campus  is 
counting  its  blessings  and  its 
downed  trees.  More  than  500  trees 
were  lost  and  several  buildings  were 
damaged,  bringing  the  estimated 
damage  costs  of  the  two  storms  to 
over  $1  million. 

The  arrival  of  Bertha  on  July  1  1 
closed  campus.  Luckily,  few  students 
were  staying  in  the  residence  halls  at 
the  time  so  evacuation  was  swift.  The 
more  minimal  of  the  two  hurricanes, 
Bertha  downed  80  trees,  dumped  a 
lot  of  rain  and  cut  power.  The  $60,000 
in  estimated  damages  was  a  result  of 
the  lack  of  power  in  the  area  of  scien- 
tific research. 

Fran,  on  the  other  hand,  who's 
eye  passed  directly  over  the  Cape  Fear 
area,  caused  many  more  problems.  The 
fall  semester  was  in  full  swing  as  the 
category  3  storm  neared  the  coast  on 
September  5.  But  again,  there  was 
enough  warning  to  allow  for  the  safe 
evacuation  of  students.  Only  1  5  stayed 
to  weather  the  storm  out  with  emer- 
gency personnel. 

When  the  sun  rose  on  September 
6,  the  normally  pleasant  view  was  ob- 
scured by  massive  numbers  of  downed 
trees,  436  in  all.  The  high  winds  tore 
shingles  off  several  buildings  and  sent 
a  section  of  Galloway  Hall's  roof  to  the 


ground.  Roof  and  building  repair  costs 
have  been  estimated  to  be  $700,000. 
The  hurricane  affected  not  only 
the  campus,  but  faculty,  staff  and  stu- 
dents who  had  to  deal  with  the  after- 
math. Nearly  400  students  and 
numerous   employees   reside   at   area 


Leonard  heads 
Anlyan  leaves 

Nu  m  e  r  o  us      administrative 
changes   took   place   during 
the     summer     months     at 
UNCW. 

Former  Dean  of  Students  Pat 
Leonard,  who  since  January  had  been 
serving  as  interim  vice  chancellor  for 
Student  Affairs,  was  appointed  in 
May  to  the  position  on  a  permanent 
basis.  Leonard  has  been  at  UNCW 
since  1983.  Dr.  William  Bryan  left 
the  vice  chancellorship  to  return  to 
the  classroom. 

Under  Leonard's  leadership,  the 
division  has  been  reorganized  and  the 
position  of  associate  vice  chancellor, 
which  Richard  Mullendore  left  in  J  tine 
to  become  vice  chancellor  for  student 
lite  at  the  University  of  Mississippi, 


beach  communities  which  were 
heavily  damaged.  However,  campus 
reopened  for  classes  just  five  days  af- 
ter Fran  hit,  and  university  officials 
organized  a  variety  of  programs  to  help 
those  who  were  affected  and  to  assist 
in  the  clean-up. 


Student  Affairs, 
Advancement 

has  been  eliminated.  Terrence  Curran 
is  dean  of  students. 

Bill  Anlyan  resigned  as  vice  chan- 
cellor for  University  Advancement  and 
Ty  Rowell,  associate  vice  chancellor, 
is  filling  in  as  interim  until  a  perma- 
nent replacement  can  be  found.  Anlyan 
is  credited  with  leading  UNCW's  suc- 
cessful capital  campaign  which  ex- 
ceeded its  $15  million  goal. 

Melton  McLaurin,  who  has  been  a 
faculty  member  and  history  department 
chair  during  his  19  years  at  UNCW, 
was  named  associate  vice  chancellor 
for  Academic  Affairs.  He  replaced  Jo 
Ann  Seiple  who  was  named  dean  of 
the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  at 
UNCW.  McLaurin  was  also  one  of  16 
educators  in  the  state  recognized  by 
the  UNC  Board  of  Governors. 


UNCW  construction  projects  delayed 


A 


heavy  workload  at  the  state  construction  office 
has  led  to  a  delay  in  the  university's  construction 


Ever  since  the  1993  bond  referendum,  which  allotted 
money  for  construction  projects  throughout  the  UNC  sys- 
tem, the  state  construction  office  has  been  overloaded  with 
work,  said  Mark  Lanier,  special  assistant  to  the  chancellor. 
The  first  project  to  come  from  the  1993  bond  issue  was  the 
UNCW  Science  Building  that  opened  for  classes  this  fall. 

All  state  construction  projects,  university  and  non- 
university,  must  be  approved  by  the  state  construction 
office  before  any  work  can  begin.  An  overload  in  that  office 
has  slowed  UNCW's  construction  plans. 

An  example  of  the  slowdown  is  the  campus  commons 
project.  The  project  was  to  be  completed  this  summer,  but 
ground  has  yet  to  be  broken. 

"The  plans  have  to  go  through  state  construction  office 
three  different  times,"  said  Dave  Girardot,  assistant  vice 
chancellor  of  Business  Affairs.  He  said  all  the  university  can 
do  is  get  in  line  and  wait  tor  the  office  to  get  to  UNCW's 
projects. 

Campus  commons  has  passed  through  state  construc- 
tion for  the  last  time  and  is  now  awaiting  the  final  go-ahead 


from  Genera!  Ad- 
ministration. 

Girardot  esti- 
mated that  the 
project  will  begin 
in  November  or 
December.  "We  do 
not  have  a  firm 
date,"  he  said. 

Other  univer- 
sity projects  which 
have  been  delayed 
include  the  marine 
s c  i  e  n c  e  c  e  n  t er , 
which  is  three 
months  behind 
schedule  with  an 
estimated  comple- 
tion  date   of  De- 


Chancellor James  Leulze  didn't  use  the  big 
scissors  at  the  Science  Building  ribbon 
culling  in  August   Instead  the  act  took  an 
"explosive"  turn  with  the  help  of  chemistry 
professor  Louis  Adcock 


cember  1998;  the  Hawk's  Nest  expansion,  scheduled  for 
completion  in  January  1997;  and  the  200-car  parking  lot 
which  will  be  done  this  year.

Edgerton  s  talk  surprises  convocation  audience 


Leading  the  audience  in  a  surpris- 
ing rendition  of  the  poem 
"Toadsuckers,"  author  Clyde 
Edgerton  broke  the  formal  pomp  and 
circumstance  to  present  a  fall  con- 
vocation speech  that  few  are  likely 
to  forget. 

"I  just  wanted  to  do  that,"  he 
told  the  crowd  that  filled  Kenan  Au- 
ditorium to  overflowing.  The  hu- 
morous poem  and  the  concluding  "I 
Got  the  UNCW  Blues"  tune  wete 
part  of  Edgerton's  unique  way  of  shar- 
ing his  "five  lessons  of  life"  with  the 
Class  of  2000. 

"Wanting  to  do  something  may 
be  the  best  reason  for  doing  some- 
thing," he  said,  adding  that  while  you 
shouldn't  skirt  responsibilities,  you 
should  listen  to  your  heart.  His  other 
lessons  dealt  with  the  importance  of 
learning  and  retelling  one's  family  sto- 
ries for  future  generations. 


Author  Clyde  Edgerton  relaxed  with  reporters 
before  giving  a  rather  nontraditional 
convocation  address. 

On  a  more  serious  note,  15  in- 
structors and  graduate  teaching  assis- 
tants were  recognized  for  distinguished 
teaching.  Fine  arts  professor  Donald 
Furst  received  rhe  Board  of  Trustees 
Teaching  Excellence  Award  as  well  as 


a  Distinguished  Teaching  Professor- 
ship Award.  The  former  includes  a 
$1,500  stipend,  while  the  latter  has  a 
three-year,  $5,000 stipend.  Dr.  Michael 
Wentworth,  English,  and  Dr.  Saul 
Bachner,  specialty  studies,  also  received 
Distinguished  Teaching  Professorships. 

Teaching  Excellence  Awards  went 
to  Frank  Trimble,  communication  stud- 
ies; Dr.  Charles  Lewis,  health,  physical 
education  and  recreation;  Dr.  Daniel 
Noland,  English;  Doretha  McKnight 
Stone,  nursing;  Dr.  James  R.  Hunt, 
marketing  and  management;  and  Dr. 
Louis  Lanunziata,  canicular  studies. 

Ibrahim  Sadek,  mathematical  sci- 
ences, received  the  Faculty  Scholar- 
ship Award. 

Graduate  Teaching  Excellence 
Awards  went  to  Krista  Barbour,  Mar- 
tin Bullock,  Katherine  Langone, 
Michelle  Manning,  Kim  Fimbel  and 
Kathryn  Reeves.

FALL     9   6 


He's  built  a  business  that  has 
$73  million  in  annual 
sales,  and  yet  Robert  S. 
King  '66  believes  his  proudest 
achievement  is  starting  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association. 

"The  biggest  thing  I  enjoyed 
accomplishing  is  the  alumni  asso- 
ciation," said  King,  who  worked 
with  Al  Corbett  '65  and  Terry 
Horton  '66  to  form  the  organiza- 
tion in  the  early  1970s. 

Why  did  he  do  it? 

"I  just  wanted  to,"  he  said.  "It  was 
a  challenge,  something  to  do,  let's  get 
it  off  the  ground  and  make  it  work." 

And  work  it  did.  With  $1,000 
in  seed  money  provided  by  then- 
Chancellor  William  Wagoner,  the 
group  started  a  fund-raising  effort 
that  continued  for  the  next  eight 
years.  Pig  pickin's,  casino  nights  and 
other  parties  held  in  the  service  bay 
area  at  King's  dealership  on  New 
Centre  Drive  drew  upwards  of  500 
people  at  each  event.  Special  tables 
were  made  to  fit  in  the  vehicle  lifts. 

"It  was  like  a  ballroom,"  King  re- 
membered. "We  made  a  lot  of  money." 

A  Wilmington  native  and 
1960  New  Hanover  High  School 
graduate,  King  spent  his  first  col- 
lege days  at  North  Carolina  State 
University  studying  civil  engineer- 
ing. But,  he  said,  he  wasn't  happy. 

So,  as  the  Vietnam  War  was  es- 
calating, he  dropped  out  to  join  the 
special  forces  National  Guard.  He 
served  six  months  and  signed  up  for 
six  years  in  the  reserves.  He  married 
Martha  Small  (New  Hanover  High 
School  Class  of  '62),  started  a  fam- 
ily and  decided  to  finish  his  college 
education  at  Wilmington  College 
where  many  of  his  friends  were  al- 
ready enrolled. 

King  remembers  getting  in 
wasn't  easy. 

Tommy  Brown,  who  had 
taught  him  geometry  in  high 
school,  was  dean  of  students.  The 
day  before  the  enrollment  deadline, 
he  told  King  he  needed  a  letter 
from  NCSU  stating  that  he  was  eli- 
gible for  readmittance.  A  phone 
call  wouldn't  do. 


Bob  King,  seated  far  right,  is  pictured  with  the  brothers  of  Sigma  Phi  Kappa.  They  are 
Albert  Jewell,  Dennis  Frisbee,  Dick  Debnam,  Allen  Pennington,  Billy  Higgms,  front  row,  Jack 
Harrell,  Adair  Graham,  H.C  Johnson,  Greer  Craig,  Bobby  Greer,  Bill  Reid,  Robert  Pales, 
C.F   Hudson,  back  row 


"I  don't  think  he  thought  I 
could  get  back  in,"  King  said.  In 
the  days  before  faxes  and  1-40,  King 
made  the  long  drive  on  two-lane 
country  roads  to  Raleigh,  got  his 
letter  and  drove  back  to 
Wilmington  just  in  time  to  be  ad- 
mitted as  a  business  student  at 
Wilmington  College. 

"Although  I  didn't  like  it,  I  was 
impressed,"  King  said.  "I  think  that 
was  a  good  policy.  It  started  way 
back  then:  you  weren't  going  to 
flunk  out  and  come  to  UNCW." 

As  a  non-traditional  student, 
King  said  he  worked  part-time  at 
Fleishman's  downtown,  cared  for 
his  daughter  while  his  wife  had  a 
full-time  job,  went  to  class,  studied 
a  lot  and  still  had  time  to  be  active 
in  a  fraternity  -  Sigma  Phi  Kappa. 

Characterizing  the  fraternity  as 
"real  sincere,"  King  said  the  brothers 
worked  hard  for  national  affiliation, 
which  they  achieved  the  semester  af- 
ter he  graduated. 

"It  wasn't  as  much  of  a  party  fra- 
ternity as  it  may  be  today,"  King  said. 
Many  of  the  brothers  were  older  and 
had  been  in  the  military.  In  fact, 
King  said  he'd  often  take  his  young 
daughter,  Angie,  with  him  to  the  fra- 
ternity house  on  Market  Street. 

There  were  several  twists  of 
fate  that  lead  King  to  the  successful 
business  he  currently  owns. 

Even  before  he  earned  his  busi- 
ness degree  from  Wilmington  Col- 


lege, King  knew  he  wanted  a  career 
that  would  encompass  his  love  of 
cars.  Crowing  up  in  the  '50s  with  a 
mother  who  drove  a  '57  Chevy,  King 
said,  "I'd  always  been  fascinated  by 
cars.  Everybody  was  a  car  buff,  and  I 
was  one  of  those  car  buffs." 

With  two  uncles  and  his  father  in 
car-related  businesses,  King  had  the 
right  connections  tor  his  job  search, 
hut  was  unable  to  make  contact.  So, 
he  went  to  work  at  the  new  DuPont 
plant  where  he  had  a  "good  opportu- 
nity" for  a  career  in  computers. 

But  as  luck  would  have  it, 
King's  fate  took  another  twist. 

The  zone  manager  tor  Pontiac  in 
l  lull. -Ik',  who  often  vacatii  ined  M 
Kure  Beach,  was  looking  for  an  assis- 
tant car  distributor.  He  saw  King's 
name  in  his  file  among  dozens  of 
other  possible  candidates.  His  familiar 
connections  with  the  Wilmington 
area  were  among  the  factors  that  led 
the  manager  to  call  King  about  the 
position  on  a  Saturday  and  offer  him 
the  job  on  Sunday. 

"Talk  about  a  needle  in  a  hay- 
stack," King  said. 

King  worked  his  way  up  to  dis- 
trict manager  for  Pontiac  and  relo- 
cated to  Atlanta.  Considered  the 
zone  manager's  "fair-haired  boy," 
King  was  among  a  select  tew  to  be 
picked  for  a  lucrative  district  sales 
manager  position  in  Chicago.

Rebellious  with  a  cause: 

The  Class  of  2000  is 
struggling  to  succeed 


y.  By  Vickie  Yearby 


Freshman  Gabe  Ward  may  be  a  typical  member  of  the  Class  of  2000. 


You've  seen  them  around. 
Their  baggy  pants  look  like 
they'll  slip  to  the  ground 
any  minute.  Their  bodies  are  deco- 
rated with  brightly  colored  tattoos, 
and  shiny  gold  rings  hang  from 
their  ears  and  other  body  parts. 

They  look  strange,  and  you 
wonder  what  they're  really  like. 

They  are  members  of  the  Class 
of  2000. 

Why  is  it  they  are  often  de- 
scribed as  extreme,  self-absorbed 
and  aloof?  Maybe  their  appearance 
is  just  misunderstood. 

Clothing  and  hairstyles  change 
with  every  generation.  The  way 
students  dress  is  a  form  of  expres- 
sion that  sets  their  generation 
apart.  The  irony  of  this  constant 
struggle  for  individuality  is  that 
young  people  dress  a  certain  way  to 
fit  in,  not  stand  out. 

"It's  not  about  being  indi- 
vidual. It's  about  being  accepted," 
said  Matt  Newton,  freshman  class 
president.  He  believes  parents  are 
more  accepting  of  fashion  trends 
that  include  dyed  hair,  tattoos  and 
belly-button  rings  because  they 
grew  up  in  the  '60s  and  '70s  when 
fashion  hit  the  extreme. 

But  deep  down  inside,  these 
students  want  what  generations  be- 
fore them  strove  for:  success,  mar- 
riage, family  and  happiness.  They 


know  that  with  so  many  people  go- 
ing to  college,  that  they  must  work 
harder  to  compete. 

After  gathering  information 
from  more  than  a  dozen  freshmen,  I 
found  it  ironic  that  most  are  not 
wrapped  up  in  the  problems  plagu- 
ing society  today.  They  are  too 
busy  striving  for  success  in  their 
own  lives  because  they  know  that 
with  so  many  people  going  to  col- 
lege, the  competition  will  be  ex- 
tremely tough  during  school  and 
after  they  graduate  and  enter  the 
job  force. 

If  you  look  at  the  average  SAT 
score  for  the  Class  of  2000,  just  un- 
der 1000,  it  is  easy  to  see  that  these 
freshmen  are  not  lazy  underachiev- 
ers.  This  is  the  highest  average  score 
of  any  incoming  class  at  UNCW. 
Colleges  across  the  nation  are  expe- 
riencing this  trend:  higher  scores, 
higher  grades,  better  students. 

"This  class  is  extremely  com- 
petitive because  it  is  tougher  to  get 
into  college.  We  are  up  against 
more  people,"  said  Cindy 
Chapman,  freshman  class  vice 
president. 

While  Chapman  is  aware  of  so- 
cial problems  that  trouble  her  gen- 
eration, like  teenage  pregnancy  and 
drugs,  she  chooses  to  concentrate 
on  the  "war  for  success."  She  be- 
lieves this  is  a  major  issue  facing 
students  today.  In  fact,  Chapman 


sees  society's  problems  as  the  driv- 
ing force  to  work  harder  to  obtain 
her  goals. 

"This  generation  has  to  have  an 
inner  incentive  to  do  well  because  a 
lot  of  outside  forces  can  sway  us  in 
the  wrong  direction,"  she  said. 

College  life  is  today  very  differ- 
ent from  that  experienced  by  the 
Class  of  1946.  Most  of  the  students 
in  the  first  class  of  Wilmington 
College  had  been  in  WW  II  and  at- 
tended college  on  the  GI  Bill. 

"We  were  just  getting  adjusted 
to  civilian  life.  We  were  still  shaky 
from  the  war.  It  was  hard  to  settle 
down  and  study,"  said  Gene 
Edwards  '46.  Classes  were  taught  in 
the  afternoon  and  evening  with 
little  campus  life  during  the  40s. 

In  fact,  there  were  still  very  few 
campus  activities  by  the  '70s.  Mike 
Glancy  '75,  Wilmington  attorney, 
said  there  was  no  campus  life  or  vi- 
tality when  he  was  a  student. 

"It  wasn't  like  what  you  see 
now.  Today's  students  have  a  lot  of 
energy.  The  campus  then  lacked 
the  sense  of  community  that  is 
present  today  because  so  many  stu- 
dents live  on  campus,"  he  said. 

Glancy  said  today's  students 
gain  more  knowledge  and  tolerance 
because  they  are  exposed  to  a  more 
diverse  faculty  and  less  traditional 
curriculum. 

Diversity  is  also  prevalent  in 


FALL     96 


the  athletic  program  ottered  at 
UNCW.  Sports  include  Ultimate 
(Frishee),  kayaking  and  sailing. 

William  Brooks,  who  taught  at 
UNCW  for  40  years  and  retired  in 
1991,  said,  "Wilmington  College 
started  off  with  only  haskethall. 
There  were  no  women's  sports. 
Now  it  is  about  equal.  I  saw  a 
steady  growth  over  the  years." 

UNCW's  diverse  sports  pro- 
gram includes  intramurals  or  club 
sports  that  allow  more  students  to 
get  involved  in  sports  who  may  not 
be  able  to  tullv  commit  to  or  make 
college  teams. 

Newton  believes  most  of  his  fel- 
low treshmen  will  become   involved 
in  some  aspect  of  campus  life  be- 
cause UNCW  offers  something  for 
everyone.  He  has  already  joined 
SGA  and  Belk  Hall  Government. 

"A  lot  of  people  are  still  home- 
sick, but  they  will  become  active  as 
time  goes  on,"  he  said. 

When  they  graduate  in  the  year 
2000,  thousands  of  students  will 
walk  out  of  universities  nationwide, 
degree  in  hand,  searching  for  jobs 


in  a  market  that  cannot  satisfy  so 
many  individuals.  Even  with  the 
advances  in  technology  they  have 
had  access  to  while  in  college,  there 
will  be  [usl  too  many  people  pour- 
ing into  an  already  overcrowded 
marketplace. 


This  generation 
has  to  have  an 
inner  incentive  to 
do  well  because 
a  lot  of  outside '"]] 
forces  can  s^*4 


This  is  ,i  concern  that  most 
college  graduates  of  the  '90s  share, 
and  it  appears  that  finding  a  job 
will  only  gel  tougher  tor  the  Class 
of  2000.  However,  they  are  prepar- 
ing tn  meet  that  challenge  as  they 
focus  on  achieving  success. 

This  freshman  class  is  really  no  dif- 
ferent than  generations  before  them. 

Every  generation  has  struggled 
with  serious  social  issues.  They 
strive  for  individuality,  but  so  lias 
every  other  generation  before  them. 

The  Class  of  2000  can  not  be 
characterized  in  a  few  sentences  or 
paragraphs,  as  1  thought  when  I  be- 
gan my  journey  into  their  lives. 
They  taught  me  that  clothing, 
pierced  body  parts  and  bagg\  pants 
are  merely  forms  of  expression. 
They  are  level-headed,  determined 
and  goal-oriented. 

Students  in  this  freshman  class 
are  uninterested  in  negative  labels 
given  to  their  generation.  They  are 
too  busy  striving  for  success.

ALUMNI    APPEAL    MARKS 
UNCW'S    GOLDEN    YEAR 


That  was  the  first  year  of  op- 
eration for  Wilmington  College. 

It's  also  the  amount  we  are  ask- 
ing all  alumni  to  donate  to  help  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  make 
its  final  payment  on  the  $400,000 
Wise  Alumni  House  renovation 
loan  from  United  Carolina  Bank. 

As  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington  begins  the 
celebration  of  its  golden  anniver- 
sary in  1997,  the  alumni  associa- 


tion is  making  this  unprecedented 
effort  to  pay  off  its  debt.  The  bal- 
ance of  the  loan,  taken  out  in 
1993,  is  $109,500,  and  the  associa- 
tion is  planning  to  make  that  final 
payment  on  the  banknote,  along 
with  interest,  on  June  2,  1997. 

But  we  can't  do  it  without  the 
help  of  all  alumni,  like  you. 

Successful  fund  raisers,  like  the 
Designers  Showcase  and  the  Fan- 
tasy Auction,  reduced   the  debt  sig- 
nificantly. Alumni,  university 
friends  and  the  community  all  par- 
ticipated. This  tall,  however,  we 
are  making  a  concerted  effort  to 
reach  all  Wilmington  College  and 


UNCW  alumni  and  ask  for  their 
assistance  in  paying  oft  the  debt. 

This  tall  you  will  be  receiving 
information  on  the  $19.47  Wise 
Alumni  House  appeal.  Please  take 
the  time  to  read  the  material  and 
send  a  minimum  donation  of  $19.47. 

Together  we  can  make  a 
difference. 

All  contributors  will  he  invited

"It  was  a  learning  experience,  I 
can  assure  you,"  he  said. 

However,  it  wasn't  long  before  his 
life  would  take  another  unexpected  turn. 

In  1972  John  Pistolis  '65,  who  had 
worked  with  King  at  Fleishman's,  con- 
vinced Ed  Harris,  owner  of  Wilmington's 
Pontiac  dealership,  to  consider  King, 
who  wasn't  happy  living  in  Chicago,  as 
a  partner. 

Just  like  a  car  salesman,  King 
made  Harris  a  counter  offer.  He 
wanted  25  percent  of  the  company's 
stock  and  to  become  a  dealer. 

"I  was  a  little  leery  about  it,"  King 
said.  "It  it  wasn't  for  my  hometown,  I 
wouldn't  have  thought  about  it."  His 
boss  in  Chicago  told  him  if  he  didn't 
like  that  job  after  a  year,  he  could 
come  back. 

"As  it  worked  out,  I  bought  the 
business  in  1978,"  King  said.  "It's  been 
a  struggle.  It  took  a  while  to  build  our 
organization  and  reputation.  I  think 
we've  done  that." 

King  moved  the  dealership  from 
its  downtown  location  to  New  Centre 
Drive  at  the  height  of  the  energy  crisis, 
before  "fuel  economy"  became  a  con- 
cern and  General  Motors  was  still 
building  big  gas  guzzlers. 

Those  were  hard  times,  King  ad- 
mits, but  said  his  continuing  philosophy 
of  "honesty  and  integrity"  has  paid  off. 

"I've  never  changed  it,  and  it's 
worked.  The  overall  intent  of  the  com- 
pany is  'We  care'  and  we  strive  to  do  it 
right.  Everybody  knows  that. 

"In  general  most  people  will  say 
it's  a  good  place.  We  may  not  always 
do  it  right,  but  the  employees  know 
the  philosophy  of  the  company  is  to  do 
it  right,  and  we  strive  for  100  percent 
customer  satisfaction,"  he  said. 

As  Wilmington  has  grown  in  the 
past  10  years,  so  has  King's  business. 
He  employs  130  people  and  has  a  pay- 
roll of  $5  million.  The  company  sells 
about  275-280  cars  a  month  and  had 
$73  million  in  sales  in  1996. 

"It's  gotten  big,"  he  said.  And  now 
Bob  King  Automall  is  at  a  crossroads. 

Over  the  next  year,  the  cinema 


across  the  street  will  be  transfonned 
into  a  truck  center.  Recently  purchased 
land  behind  the  dealership  will  be  used 
for  storage,  and  next  door,  a  Mercedes 
showroom  will  be  constmcted. 

As  he  enjoys  his  success,  King  re- 
mains an  active  supporter  of  his  alma 
mater,  contributing  thousands  of  dol- 
lars each  year  to  the  university  which 
he  believes  has  a  major  impact  on  the 
community.  In  1969,  he  was  among 
two  dozen  "alumni  pioneers"  who  do- 
nated the  first  gifts  to  the  alumni  asso- 
ciation. This  year  he  is  donating  a 
1996  Seahawk  green  GMC  Jimmy  to

Alumni  Association  to  benefit  Wise

"There  are  many  people  who  wait 
tor  it  to  happen  before  getting  on 
board.  I  was  one  to  help  make  it  hap- 
pen," King  said,  quickly  adding,  "But 
we'll  take  those  who  have  waited  for 
it  to  happen.  It's  exciting  stuff  for  an 
infant  university  to  get  the  status  and 
recognition  UNCW  is  getting. 

"It's  got  a  fantastic  reputation 
and  it  started  back  in  the  '60s.  I 
think  everybody's  proud  of  it,"  King 
said.  "You  don't  have  to  apologize 
that  you  graduated  from  UNCW. 
That  alone  is  enough."  W 


FALL     96 


First  semester  of  creative  writing 
MFA  underway         ^j 


Br  Melissa  Shaw 

As  a  result  of  student  inter- 
est, the  UNCW  English 
Department  is  offering  a 
unique  degree  which  will  bring  at- 
tention to  the  university. 

This  fall  is  the  first  semester 
that  classes  in  the  Master  of  Fine 
Arts  (MFA)  in  Creative  Writing 
have  been  offered. 

The  MFA  is  a  graduate  degree 
which  is  described  as  being  suitable 
for  writers  who  want  to  teach  in  a 
university  setting  or  go  onto  other 
careers  within  writing  and  editing. 

"We  think  at  the  MFA  as  more 
of  an  experience  than  a  creden- 
tial," said  Philip  Gerard,  director  of 
creative  and  professional  writing  at 
UNCW. 

The  MFA  provides  an  appren- 
ticeship in  writing.  "It  legitimizes 
trying  to  write  novels,  short  stories 
and  poetry  in  class,"  he  said. 

The  degree,  which  requires  48 
course  hours  and  a  book-length 
thesis,  will  take  about  three  to  tour 
years  for  a  person  to  complete. 

UNCW  is  unique  in  its  offer- 
ing of  the  course.  The  only  other 
UNC-system  school  to  offer  the 
MFA  in  creative  writing,  is  UNC- 
Greensboro. 

"There  isn't  an  MFA  program 
north  of  Georgia  or  south  of  Vir- 
ginia," Gerard  said.  "We  felt  this 
region  didn't  have  a  headquarters 
for  serious  writers."  Now,  with  the 
MFA  program  at  UNCW,  it  does. 

Gerard  said  UNCW  and  the 
MFA  are  a  "natural  fit"  because  the 
university  is  situated  in  an  area 
which  already  attracts  writers. 


"People  choose  to  come  here  as 
much  tor  the  environment  as  for 
the  program." 

Currently  there  are  2  3  students 
enrolled  in  the  program,  including 
eight  students  who  transferred  from 
the  MA  program. 

"In  the  beginning  we  are  serv- 
ing students  who  know  us  already," 
Gerard  said.  But  undoubtedly,  he 
says  the  program  will  start  attract- 
ing writers  from  all  over. 

One  way  of  reaching  people 
from  all  over  the  country  is 
through  the  Internet.  The  English 
Department  has  created  a  Web 
page  devoted  to  the  MFA  program. 
Gerard  said  about  halt  of  the  appli- 
cations they  receive  for  the  pro- 
gram came  from  the  Web  page.  "I 
get  two  or  three  messages  (e-mail) 
a  day  from  people  who  have  ques- 
tions about  the  MFA." 

The  road  to  offering  the  MFA 
degree  at  UNCW  was  a  long  one.  It 
began  nearly  six  years  ago  when  an 
evaluation  of  the  creative  and  pro- 
fessional writing  program  was  done. 
The  evaluation  revealed  that  MFA 
was  the  next  logical  step  in  the 
evolution  of  the  program. 

At  the  time,  Gerard  was  the 
only  professional  writer  in  the  En- 
glish faculty.  In  order  to  otter  the 
MFA,  and  because  of  the  interest 
in  creative  writing  at  the  university 
was  growing,  the  school  began 
building  the  writing  faculty. 

Today,  the?e  are  seven  faculty 
members  who  are  professional  writer: 
Stanley  Colbert,  John  Fleming, 
Kathleen  Halme,  Rebecca  Lee, 


Michael  White  and  Paul  Wilkes. 

In  addition  to  building  the  fac- 
ulty, a  lot 
of  adminis- 
trative 
work  had 


timates 
thai  since 
1991,  halt 
ot  his  time 
has  been         Gerord 
spent  orga- 
nizing the  program  and  answering 
questions  about  it. 

There  were  30  steps  to  go 
through  to  get  the  program,  and 
Gerard  said  new  questions  were 
raised  at  each. 

"Students  understand  this  was 
a  long  time  coming,"  he  said. 
"They  really  appreciate  the  oppor- 
tunity. It's  a  sign  they  are  passion- 
ate about  their  work." 

Gerard  said  the  students  are 
the  ones  who  will  make  or  break 
the  program.  "The  students  help  to 
tell  us  the  shape  the  program  needs 
to  take." 

"Our  primary  goal  is  to  make 
sure  they  continue  writing  once 
they  leave  here,"  he  said.

Discovery  of  shells  gives  Sunderland 
rare  opportunity  for  scientific  legacy 


BY  Marybeth  K.  Bianchi 

Scientists  often  spend  a  life 
time  of  research  working  to- 
ward that  one  discovery  that 
will  make  their  mark.  At  age  36, 
Linda  Taylor  Sunderland  '82  has 
made  more  than  a  dozen. 

Between  1988  and  1993,  she 
and  her  husband,  Kevan,  discov- 
ered more  than  16  new  species  of 
seashells  whose  scientific  names  re- 
flect that  fact.  Argopecten  taylorae 
and  Murexiella  taylorae  are  named 
for  Linda,  and  Conus  kevani  for 
Kevan,  and  Splendrilla  sunderlandi, 
Conus  sunderlandi  and 
Architechtonica  sunderlandi  are 
named  for  the  two  of  them. 

"My  family  says  I  was  picking 
up  shells  before  I  walked,"  said 
Linda  who  grew  up  in  Sea  Level, 
N.C.  Her  mother  thought  she'd 
outgrow  the  hobby  and  teased 
Linda  that  she'd  "never  find  a  man 
to  put  up  with  this."  Neither  came 
1. 1  pass. 

During  Linda's  first  job  after 
college  as  a  field  biologist  for  the 
National  Audubon  Society  in  the 
Florida  Keys,  a  co-worker  intro- 
duced her  to  her  brother,  also  an 
avid  shell  collector. 

"We  hit  it  off,"  Linda  said. 
Their  first  date  was  a  rather  non- 
traditional  night  dive. 

Today  the  two  share  a  shell  col- 
lection which  numbers  more  than 
300,000  specimens,  including  the 
new  species  they  discovered.  They 
knocked  down  a  wall  between  two 
bedrooms  of  their  four-bedroom 
house  to  make  space  for  their  huge 
collection  that  has  been  meticu- 
lously stored  and  cataloged.  The 
shells  range  from  a  24-inch  horse 
conch  to  microscopic  specimens. 

Getting  a  shell  named  for  you  is 
no  simple  feat.  "After  finding  the 


Linda  Taylor  Sunderland  '82  and  husband,  Kevan,  have  more  than  300,000  shells  in  their 
collection,  several  of  which  are  named  for  them. 


shell,"  Linda  explained,  "you  must 
do  an  extensive  literature  search 
and  then  justify  why  you  think  that 
particular  shell  is  unique.  It  takes  a 
lot  ot  time  to  really  do  it  right." 

And,  it  helps  to  have  a  friend 
like  Dr.  Ed  Petruch,  a  professor  at 
Florida  Atlantic  University,  who 
helps  amateur  collectors  like  the 
Sunderlands  go  through  the  official 
channels  of  having  a  species  named. 

"Discovering  27  live  specimens 
of  Cerithioclava  garciai  off  the  coast 
of  Honduras,  when  only  fossils  had 
been  located  in  the  Caribbean,  was 
probably  the  neatest  thing  we 
found,"  Linda  said.  On  that  same 
trip  to  Honduras  12  new  shell  spe- 
cies were  discovered. 

"There  are  a  lot  of  things  out 
there  we  don't  know  about," 
Linda  said. 

The  Sunderlands  are  frequently 
called  upon  by  museums  and  other 


collectors  to  identity  shell  species. 
They  travel  around  the  country 
judging  prominent  shell  shows  and 
giving  lectures,  from  Boston  to 
Chicago  to  New  Orleans.  They  are 
also  on  the  editorial  staff  of  Ameri- 
can Conchologist. 

All  this,  and  they  hold  full- 
time  jobs,  too. 

Linda  said  she  is  one  of  the 
"very  fortunate"  marine  biology 
graduates  from  UNCW  to  have 
used  her  degree  in  every  job  she's 
held.  Her  college  career  was  aided 
by  who  she  feels  were  some  very 
special  educators. 

Dr.  Anne  McCrary  "helped  me 
with  classes  she  was  not  even 
teaching.  I  have  never  seen  her  not 
have  time  for  a  student.  She  was 
always  there  and  willing  to  help. 
We  still  keep  in  touch.  She's  a  very

ALUMNI    PROFILE 


Pair  capitalizes  on  coffee  boom  with  'Seahawk'  blend 


By  Phillip  Brown 


Something's  new  in  the  air 
this  year.  And  it's  heing 
brewed  at  the  Hawk's  Nest. 
It  you're  one  of  those  people 
who  don't  get  going  until  their  first 
cup  ot  coffee,  then  you  need  to  try 
the  "Seahawk."  It's  a  custom- 
brewed  gourmet  coffee  created  by 
UNCW  alumni  Walter  Bateman 
'94  and  Robbie  Robinson  '89. 

Gourmet  coffee  is  a  booming 
business.  Bateman  compared  the 
increased  popularity  of  coffee  shops 
to  the  boom  of  yogurt  shops  in  the 
1980's.  Bateman  said 
UNCW  is  attracting  stu- 
dents from  all  over  the 
country,  and  some  are 
probably  already  familiar 
with  good  coffee.  He 
thinks  that  is  one  reason 
why  he  and  his  partner 
were  approached  about 
bringing  gourmet  coffee 
to  the  Hawk's  Nest.  An- 
other reason,  Robinson 
added,  could  be  the  trend 
toward  offering  a  social 
atmosphere  that  doesn't 
involve  alcohol. 

While  the  Hawk's 
Nest  offers  a  commercial 
coffee  service,  Tom 
Williamson,  food  service 
director  for  ARAMARK 
at  UNCW,  said  surveys 
at  UNCW  and  other 
universities  showed  the 
need  to  offer  another  op- 
tion. Williamson  said 
Java  Estate  Roastery  sold 
the  equipment  that  has 
enabled  the  Hawk's  Nest 
to  set  up  a  small  coffee 
house.  "We  supply  them 
with  espresso  machines, 
coffee  and  syrups," 
Bateman  said.  And,  of 


course,  one  ot  the  coffees  supplied 
is  the  Seahawk  blend. 

The  coffees  used  to  give  the 
Seahawk  its  body,  aroma  and  taste 
are  not  part  of  a  secret  recipe, 
Bateman  said.  However,  the  secret 
is  in  tile  percentages  ot  the  three 
coffees  used  in  the  blend.  Drawing 
upon  a  combined  eight  years  of  ex- 
perience, Bateman  and  Robinson 
take  their  finest  Central  American 
coffee,  a  medium  roast  Guatemalan 
and  blend  it  with  an  Indonesian 
coffee,  Sumatra  Mandheling  and  a 


In  a  small  office  in  Wilmington,  UNCW  alums  Robbie  Robinson  '89 
and  Waller  Bateman  '94  create  and  roast  custom  blends  of  gourmet 
coffees  and  ship  them  to  businesses  in  North  and  South  Carolina 


dark  French  roast  to  produce  the 
Seahawk.  Their  goal  was  to  "dense 
a  coffee  that  everyone  would  like. 
It's  a  mild,  aromatic  coffee  that  ap- 
peals to  everyone,"  said  Bateman. 

The  blend  has  only  been  on 
the  market  since  August,  but  so  far 
it  looks  like  the  appeal  is  there,  he 
said.  Williamson  agreed,  "In  m\ 
opinion  it's  a  very  good  blend."  He 
added  that  everyone  he  has  heard 
ot  who  tried  it  has  had  a  favorable 
response.  He  hopes  for  an  even  big- 
ger response  as  the  weather  gets 
colder.  Bateman  said  that 
right  now  the  Hawk's  Nest 
has  been  ordering  an  aver- 
age of  10  pounds  a  week. 

He  said  he's  glad 
Williamson  approached  Java 
Estate  Roastery  about  equip- 
ping the  university  eatery 
and  creating  the  Seahawk. 
"I  think  he  (Williamson) 
wanted  to  find  a  way  tor 
alumni  to  put  something 
back  into  UNCW,"  said 
Bateman.  "With  us,  he 
found  just  that,  a  couple  of 
alumni  who  worked  in  the 
coffee  business  and  were  lo- 
cal roasters." 

"I  feel  really  good  about 
being  able  to  give  something 
back  and  help  contribute  to 
UNCW,"  said  Robinson. 

The  partners  divide  up 
the  work  fairly  evenly. 
Robinson,  a  recreation  ma- 
jor, said  that  Bateman  is  the 
master  roaster,  while  he 
handles  most  ot  the  business 
side.  Robinson  said  the  busi- 
ness classes  he  took  at 
UNCW  helped  with  learn- 
ing business  basics,  espe-

cially  the  accounting  and  marketing  classes. 

Robinson,  who  is  a  surfing  enthusiast,  left  North 
Carolina  for  California  following  graduation  from 
UNCW.  There,  he  worked  for  Board  and  Brew,  a  San 
Diego  coffee  shop.  He  said  that  while  he  was  there  he 
saw  the  rising  popularity  of  coffee  shops.  So,  he  decided 
to  come  hack  to  Wilmington  and  opened  Kona's  Cafe 
in  Wrightsville  Beach.  He  owned  the  shop  for  about 
four  years  before  selling  it.  While  it  had  been  voted  best 
coffee  house  three  straight  years,  Robinson  said  he  saw 
the  competition  increasing.  He  said  he  and  Bateman 
decided  to  take  their  retail  experience  into  the  whole- 
sale side  and  in  May  1995  started  Java  Estate  Roastery. 

Bateman,  a  psychology  major,  graduated  from  the 
university  in  1994-  Also  an  avid  surfer,  after  graduation 
he  left  Wilmington  for  Hawaii,  where  he  said  he  gained 
his  experience  in  coffee  roasting.  Already  having  expe- 
rience in  the  coffee  business  helped,  said  Bateman.  He 


had  worked  his  way  through  college  at  Kona's  Cafe.  He 
managed  the  coffee  shop  for  Robinson  for  two  years.  In 
Hawaii,  Bateman  apprenticed  for  the  owners  of  Kona 
Kai  Farms,  one  of  the  largest  coffee  farms  on  the  is- 
lands. He  also  managed  a  coffee  shop,  The  Coffee  Gal- 
lery. Hawaii  is  the  only  place  in  the  United  States  that 
gtows  coffee. 

Surfing  is  a  hobby  for  both  businessmen.  And  a 
hobby  that  they  have  been  able  to  indulge  in  while 
combining  their  pleasure  with  business.  Coffee  is  grown 
only  between  the  Tropics  of  Cancer  and  Capricorn, 
they  said,  and  it  may  be  a  coincidence,  but  it's  also 
home  to  the  world's  best  surf  breaks. 

"What  better  reason  to  go  surfing  than  to  buy  cof- 
fee," says  Bateman.

lations Office.

wonderful  mentor  and  role  model," 
Linda  said. 

But  the  person  Linda  puts  at 
the  "top  of  the  list"  is  Frank 
Chapman. 

"I  won't  say  he  knows  what's 
best  for  me,  but  he's  always  getting 
me  to  take  that  step,"  she  said,  with 
evident  admiration.  He  helped  her 
overcome  a  bad  deep  water  experi- 
ence she  had  as  a  child  to  become  a 
certified  scuba  diver.  He  also  helped 
her  land  her  first  job. 

"He  calls  just  to  see  how  you're 
doing  -  a  real  special  friend,"  she 
said.  Even  now,  when  she  leaves 
Florida  for  her  home  state,  she 
makes  sure  she  visits  the  Chapmans 
and  other  university  friends. 

Linda,  who  paid  for  her  college 
education  by  working  as  a  commer- 
cial shrimper  on  the  family-owned 
42-foot  ttawler,  has  held  jobs  with 
ordinary  sounding  titles,  but  ex- 
traordinary responsibilities.   For  ex- 
ample, as  an  administrative  assistant 
for  Tracor  Marine,  Inc.,  in  Fort  Lau- 
derdale, she  spent  four  weeks  off- 
shore Sasebo,  Japan,  assisting  with  a 
cable  survey  between  Japan  and 
South  Korea. 


Measuring  just  one-half  inch,  Murexiella 
laylorae  is  a  shell  named  for  UNCW 
alumna  Linda  Taylor  Sunderland. 


The  time  she  spent  aboard  the 
180-foot  vessel  in  15-20-foot  seas  in 
the  frigid  January  climate  "was  not  a 
Carnival  Cruise  but  it  was  a  good 
experience,"  Linda  said. 

"Everything  was  fine  until  we 
went  five  miles  off  Pusan  Harbor 


and  were  surrounded  by  gun  boats," 
Linda  said,  explaining  that  was  the 
Koreans'  response  to  an  unan- 
nounced Japanese  boat.  "No  one 
told  the  base  commander  we  were 
coming." 

When  she  returned  to  Florida, 
expecting  a  promotion,  Linda  was 
laid  off  instead. 

"I  think  in  the  long  run  it 
probably  was  a  good  thing,"  she 
now  says. 

Since  that  time  she's  worked  as 
a  lab  technician  for  the  City  of  Sun- 
rise, Fla.,  as  project  coordinator  and 
biologist  for  Oceaneering  Interna- 
tional and  finally,  natural  resource 
specialist  for  Broward  County,  Fla. 

With  her  shell  collecting  expe- 
riences, Linda  is  developing  a  con- 
sulting business  to  assist  marine 
surveyors  in  identifying  the  numer- 
ous shell  species  they  encounter. 

Oh,  and  as  if  shell  collecting 
wasn't  enough  to  keep  Linda 
Sunderland  busy  after  working  40 
hours  a  week,  she  also  spends  many 
hours  outdoors  photographing  na- 
ture and  is  building  a  collection  of 
antique  oil  lamps  from  the  early  to 

late  1880's.  ...

Support  for  Loyalty  Fund  is  growing 


By  Jennifer  El  am 


The  Loyalty  Fund  is  UNCW's 
annual  giving  program 
which  began  in  1902.  Over 
the  past  tour  years,  we've  contin- 
ued to  enlarge  our  Jonor  base  and 
are  committed  to  investing  in  the 
search  for  new  donors.  Gifts  to  the 
Loyalty  Fund  enhance  scholarships, 
student  leadership  programs,  fac- 
ulty and  staff  development  and  the 
alumni  association. 

This  past  year  was  an  exciting 
one  as  we  attempted  to  call  every- 
one in  our  database  -  donors  and 
non-donors.  Approximately  14,600 
people  were  reached.  Out  of  those 
contacts,  there  were  2,889  pledges 
totalling  $133,295.  From  the  previ- 
ous donor  group,  1,629  pledges  of 
$81,219  were  made.  Ot  those  who 
had  never  given  before,  1,260 
pledged  $52,076.  While  this  was  a 
great  accomplishment  in  obtaining 
so  many  new  pledges,  the  Loyalty 
Fund  needs  to  continue  this  mo- 
mentum again  this  year. 

In  our  final  evaluation,  we  dis- 


covered some  interesting  facts.

•  Nearly  50  percent  ot  the  entire

•  An  average  pledge  in  the  $50

So  what  does  all  this  mean? 
The  biggest  hurdle  is  obtaining 
good  addresses  and  phone  numbers

ger to  hear  from  you  and  want  to 
stay  in  contact  with  you,  not  just 
for  solicitation  purposes,  but  also 
tor  alumni  association  activities.

UNCW  Loyalty  Fund  you  will  help  us  provide  programs  for  alumni  and  students.  Your

Especially  with  our  50th  anniver- 
sary approaching,  there  will  he 
some  exciting  events  and  informa- 
tion in  which  all  alumni  will  be  in- 
terested. 

If  you  have  not  been  receiving 
information  or  know  ot  a  friend 
who  is  not,  please  till  oul  the  form 
below  and  send  it  to  us  or  call  the 
alumni  association  at  1-800-596-

The  second  challenge  is  to 
convince  more  alumni  to  suppott 
the  university  which  we  will  con- 
tinue to  try  to  do  each  year  with 
help  from  the  alumni  association 
and  various  other  strategies. 

Please  remember  that  because 
UNCW  has  such  a  young  annual 
giving  program,  it  is  most  important 
to  increase  the  number  of  donors  re- 
gardless ot  how  much  the  gift  is. 
This  is  crucial  because  foundations 
which  provide  grant  money  require 
a  certain  level  ot  alumni  participa- 
tion; therefore,  our  goal  is  to  have  a 
larger  percentage  of  donors. 

UNCW's  Loyalty  Fund,  while 
relatively  new,  has  an  excellent  start. 
There  is  an  especially  strong  enthusi- 
asm with  the  youngest  alumni  as  in- 
dicated. We  are  committed  to 
growing  the  Loyalty  Fund  to  main- 
tain the  standards  of  excellence  and 
to  enhance  the  lives  ot  those  at 
UNCW.  It  is  an  exciting  time  to  be 
involved  with  the  university. 

You  have  received  the  bro- 
chure "Surging  Toward  2000" 
with  a  pledge  card.  It  you  have 
not  already  done  so,  please  com- 
plete the  pledge  card  and  include 
your  contribution. 

Let's  continue  to  show  growth 
again  this  year  as  we  surge  toward 
the  21st  century  and  UNCW's  50th 
anniversary!

Association  growth  tied  to  new  chapters 


By  Kenitra  Mumford 

Over  the  past  year  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  has   ex- 
perienced a  jump  in  member- 
ship as  more  and  more  graduates  realize 
the  benefits  of  joining.  In  addition  to 
the  increase  in  general  membership, 
the  alumni  association  established 
three  new  chapters,  a  fourth  is  being 
formed  and  an  existing  chapter  is  being 
expanded. 

"Until  recently,  the  alumni  asso- 
cial  ion  consisted  of  five  chapters,"  said 
Mike  Arnold,  alumni  relations  assistant. 
The  newest  additions  are  the  Afri- 
can-American  Graduates  Association 
(AAGA)  with  Ron  Hamm  '90  as  presi- 
dent, the  School  of  Nursing  Chapter 
with  Beth  Hodshon  '94  as  president, 
and  the  Watson  School  of  Education 
Chapter  led  by  Sherry  Broome  '91. 

These  new  chapters  provide  in- 
creased benefits  to  both  alumni  and 
non-alumni  by  offering  increased  sup- 
port to  the  university,  more  programs 
and  services  for  alumni  and  students 
and  more  direct  appeal  to  local  alumni, 
Arnold  explained. 

"All  of  the  new  chapters  are  doing 
extremely  well,  especially  with  the  lo- 
cal alumni,"  he  added.  Through  the 
combined  effort   of  the  new  chapters 


alone,  there  are  now  hundreds  of  new 
members  in  the  association.  This 
means  that  not  only  is  the  association 
growing,  but  its  newest  members  are 
"fresh  out  of  college,"  Arnold  said. 
This  is  important  because  younger 
members  are  more  likely  to  have  a 
greater  influence  in  recruiting  the  next 
generation  of  undergraduates  by  offer- 
ing the  most  recent  perspective  on  the 
responsibilities  of  being  an  alumnus. 

Collectively,  the  chapters  offer  sup- 
port and  foster  goodwill  tor  the  univer- 
sity. Individually,  the  geographical 
chapters  provide  mentor  assistance  and 
hold  social  functions.  Chapters  that  are 
formed  directly  from  the  UNCW  schools 
also  assist  in  continuing  education. 

The  School  of  Nursing  Chapter, 
established  in  May  1996,  is  led  by 
Hodshon  with  Adrian  Jackson  as  liai- 
son. Its  goals  are  to  establish  scholar- 
ships, form  a  crisis  fund  for  students 
who  need  financial  aid  to  complete 
their  studies,  provide  mentors  for  stu- 
dents and  the  community  and  promote 
interaction  with  other  alums. 

AAGA  was  founded  in  November 
1989  by  a  nine-member  committee  to 
promote  unity  among  African  Ameri- 
can graduates  and  to  increase  under-

ating a  first-year  teacher  mentoring

for  Jan.  25 
homecoming 

Remember  the  '80s? 
Reaganomics,  the  demise  of 
the  Berlin  Wall,  Duran

They'll  come  to  life  again  on 
Saturday,  January  25,  when  UNCW 
celebrates  homecoming  1996  with 
an  '80s  twist.

with  UNCW's  notorious  rival. 

When  the  game's  through,  walk 
oxer  to  the  University  Center  Ball- 
room and  join  us  for  the  homecoming 
dance  at  9:30  p.m.  DJ  Craig  Thomas

miliar songs  of  the  '80s,  with  some 
surprise  entertainment  in  the  works. 

Tickets  are  $10  a  person  for

To  meet  these  opportunities 
and  challenges  for  growth,  our 
goals  for  1996-97  are: 

1.  Continue  the  development  ot

It  is  critical  for  this  to  occur  it 
we  are  to  keep  up  with  the  de- 
mands of  a  growing  alumni  asso- 
ciation. 

2.  Retire  the  Wise  Alumni  House

raising  activities.  The  note  will

Director's    Message 


The  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation is  energized  by  the 
significance  of  this  special 
year.  We  will  begin  our  commemo- 
ration of  50  years  as  an  institution 
of  highet  learning. 

Our  golden  year  will  reflect  on 
this  young  university  that  has  ful- 
filled the  role  that  our  foresighted 
early  leaders  envisioned.  In  fact,  we 
have  surpassed  the  expectations  ot 
many  by  adding  tremendous  eco- 
nomic and  cultural  benefits  to  our 
area,  providing  opportunities  for 
advance  degrees  and  cultivating 
energy  and  vitality   in  the  region 
with  our  9,100  students. 

January  1997  will  be  our  kickoff 
for  18  months  of  opportunities  cel- 
ebrating 50  years  of  growth. 
Wilmington  College  and  UNCW 
alumni  will  join  together  with  stu- 
dents, faculty,  staff  and  the  commu- 
nity to  reflect  on  our  past  and  surge 


into  the  next 
era  of  UNCW 
history.

Counting  down  the  days  to 
graduation,  Rachele  Thompson 
is  learning  what  it  means  to  be 
a  UNCW  alumnus. 

Rachele  is  the  alumni  association's 
first  student  intern,  and  as  a  communi- 
cation studies  major,  she's  spending  her 
time  organizing  the  chapter  she  hopes  to 
soon  join  as  a  charter  member. 

"I've  had  so  much  fun  here.  I'm 
learning  what  an  alumni  association  is 
all  about,"  she  said. 

Her  task  during  the  126  hours  she 
will  be  working  at  Wise  Alumni  House  is 
to  track  down  the  hundreds  of  people 
who  through  the  years  have  earned 
bachelor's  degrees  in  communication 
studies  at  UNCW. 

"It's  been  tun,  but  it's  been  a  huge 
job,"  she  said.  Her  calls  are  frequently 
picked  up  by  answering  machines,  and  on 
those  rare  occasions  she  does  get  a  real 
person,  more  often  than  not,  it's  one  of 
the  graduate's  parents  who  answers. 

Despite  these  obstacles,  Rachele 
happily  reports,  "The  response  has  been 
huge." 

People  have  returned  her  calls,  and 
parents  pass  on  their  children's  current 


phone  num- 
bers and  ad- 
dresses. All 
the  informa- 
t  i  o  n 
Rachele 
compiles 
will  be  put  in 
a  data  base 
and  used  for 
future  mail- 
ings to  en- 
courage 
graduates  to 
join  the  new- 
chapter. 

Rachele 

feels  this  is  a  great  opportunity  for  UNCW 
alumni,  a  chance  to  be  "a  part  of  history." 
"The  fee  is  nothing,  just  the  cost  of 
a  dinner.  I  see  what  they  do  for  the  uni- 
versity and  look  at  what  they've  done 
with  the  Wise  House,"  Rachele  said. 

"I  have  a  very,  very  strong  feeling 
this  chapter  will  expand  quickly,"  she 
said.  "I'm  going  to  encourage  a  lot  of  my 
classmates  to  join."

Coaches  receive  top  honors  in  CAA 


Wain 


The  success  of  UNCW's  men's 
basketball  and  women's  swim- 
ming teams  this  year  has  earned 
their  respective  coaches,  Jerry  Wainwright 
and  Dave  Allen,  Coach  of  the  Year  hon- 
ors in  the  Colonial  Athletic  Association. 

The  men's  basketball  team  concluded 
the  season  with  an  overall  record  of  16-14 
and  1 1-7  in  the  CAA.  They  finished  in  a 
tirst-place  tie  with  Old  Dominion  to  share 
their  first-ever  regular  season  championship.  The  team  also 
received  a  school-record  seven  awards  at  the  annual  post- 
season banquet  during  the  CAA  tournament. 

Wainwright  is  the  first  UNCW  basketball  coach  to 
be  named  Coach  of  the  Year.  Senior  Billy  Mayew  col- 
lected a  CAA-record  four  awards  as  he  was  named  first- 
team  All-CAA,  All-Defense  and  All-Academic  and 
received  the  prestigious  Dean  Ehlers  Leadership  Award. 
Other  players  receiving  awards  were  Lamont  Franklin, 
All-Defensive;  Mark  Byington,  All-Academic;  and  Oleg 
Kojenets,  All-Rookie. 

UNCW's  success  continued  from  the  court  into  the 


pool  with  the  women's  swimming  team 
which  went  undefeated  for  the  first 
time  in  the  program's  history  during 
the  dual  meet  season,  registering  a  9-0 
record.  They  also  broke  nine  school 
records  during  the  season. 

The  women  finished  second  at  the 
CAA  championships  and  had  five  con- 
ference champions.  Freshman  phenom 
Adrienne  Sutton  captured  the  100- 
and  200-breaststroke  and  the  400-individual  medley,  while 
Jessica  Bader  won  the  one-  and  three-meter  diving  events. 
For  the  first  time  ever,  the  women  captured  a  post- 
season title  when  they  took  first  place  at  the  Eastern 
College  Athletics  Conference  Championships.  Sutton 
won  the  200-breaststroke,  Beth  Papineau  captured  the 
100-backstroke  and  Bader  earned  the  title  on  the  three- 
meter  board. 

The  outstanding  seasons  turned  in  by  both  the  men's 
basketball  and  women's  swimming  teams  underscores  why 
their  respective  coaches  received  honors  by  the  league  as 
the  season's  top  coaches.  -  Elizabeth  Lee 


Plans  revealed  for  student  recreation  center 


The  lawn,  parking  lot  and  sec- 
tions of  the  Chancellor's 
Walk  between  Morton  Hall, 
Randall  Library  and  the  University 
Union  are  being  transformed  into  a 
landscaped  commons  with  a  three- 
armed  lake,  lighted  fountains,  a  net- 
work of  sidewalks,  benches  and  a 
sculpted  hill  leading  to  a  stage. 

The  idea  of  a  campus  commons 
was  conceived  by  Chancellor  James 


R.  Leut:e  to  be  a  visually  attractive 
meeting  place  for  students,  faculty 
and  staff.  This  $600,000  project  was 
funded  through  donations  and  non- 
appropriated university  funds. 

Several  other  projects  are  in  the 
works  around  the  UNCW  campus. 

Two  100-student  residence  halls 
will  be  built  within  the  next  year. 
These   halls,    located   across   from 
Madeline  Suite  in  Wagoner  Hall,  will 
have   social    lounges, 
formal  lobbies,  kitch- 
ens, reading  and  con- 
ference rooms.  One  will 
be  an  honors  hall,  and 
the  other  will  house  in- 
ternational students. 

Plans  for  the 
63,3  50-square-foot  stu- 
dent recreation  center 
were  unveiled  January 
8.   "The  hottest   item 


that  is  being  built  as  part  of  the  recre- 
ation center  is  the  indoor  climbing 
wall,"  said  Rex  Pringle,  director  of 
campus  recreation.  It  will  also  have 
multi-purpose  courts  for  basketball, 
volleyball,  soccer  and  other  activi- 
ties. The  area  can  also  be  turned 
into  a  spacious  aerobics  room  by 
uncovering  the  mirrors  placed  on 
one  wall.  It  will  feature  a  high  tech

Hurricanes  delay  documentary  air  date 


Airing  of  UNCW's  newest 
documentary,  Treasure 
Coast:  The  Natural  Heritage 
of  the  North  Carolina  Shore,  on  UNC 
public  television  has  been  delayed 
due  to  the  need  to  shoot  new  footage. 
However,  the  documentary  is 
nearing  completion  and  is  expected 
to  air  this  fall.  It  still  highlights  the 
people,  places  and  events  that  shaped 
the  coast's  past  and  present  and  will 
affect  its  future.  Because  original  film- 
ing was  completed  before  last  year's 
hurricanes,  the  new  footage  captures 
the  devastation  that  continues  to  af- 


fect the  coast. 

The  documentary,  narrated  by 
Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  and 
scripted  by  Philip  Gerard,  director  of 
UNCW's  creative  writing  program, 
also  focuses  on  important  issues  af- 
fecting economic  and  recreational  uses 


oi  the  coast  including  erosion,  devel- 
opment, pollution  and  overfishing. 

Plan  to  watch  Treasure  Coast  this 
fall  and  meet  individuals  who  are 
part  of  the  coastal  landscape.  Experi- 
ence a  view  of  the  coast  that  is  more 
than  wide,  sandy  beaches.  See  the 
intricate  system  of  barrier  islands, 
tidal  creeks,  sounds,  estuaries, 
deepwater  channels,  fishing  grounds, 
salt  marshes  and  beaches  and  learn 
how  a  balance  can  be  achieved  be- 
tween man's  use  of  the  coast  and  the 
needs  of  nature.

Students  get  degrees  in  three  years 
when  they  enroll  in  the  'Fast  Track' 


F 


or  the  student  who  doesn't 
want  to  wait  four  years  to  ob- 
tain a  bachelor's  degree  or  who 
wants  something  special  in  his  resume, 
UNCW  offers  "Fast  Track." 

"We  are  the  first  university  ( in  the 
UNC  system )  to  offer  a  formal  program 
which  allows  students  to  graduate  in 
three  years,"  said  Denis  Carter,  associ- 
ate provost  for  Enrollment  Affairs. 

The  response  to  the  program  has 
been  amazing,  Carter  said.  His  office 
has  received  more  inquiries  than  ex- 
pected. He  expects  about  30  students 
to  participate  in  the  program  initially. 

The  "Fast  Track"  program  will 
be  available  in  nine  different  majors: 
accountancy,  biology,  business  man- 
agement, chemistry,  elementary  edu- 
cation, foreign  languages,  history, 
nursing  and  sociology.  Requirements 
are  no  different  than  the  four-year 
plan:  124  credit  hours  are  needed  for 
graduation. 

With  "Fast  Track"  students  will 
stick  to  a  course  plan  which  allows 
them  to  get  all  the  classes  they  need 


in  a  shorter  period  of  time.  This 
means  the  university  will  commit  to 
scheduling,  by  making  sure  that  nec- 
essary courses  are  offered  during  cer- 
tain semesters  and  summer  sessions, 
Carter  said. 

Students  enrolled  in  the  "Fast 
Track"  will  not  save  any  money;  their 
educational  costs  will  be  the  same  as 
those  for  a  student  who  stays  in  school 
for  four  years.  However,  they  will  be 
out  in  the  work  force  sooner,  thus 
able  to  pay  back  student  loans 
quicker. 

"Fast  Track"  goes  hand-in-hand 
with  a  $1 10,735,  three-year  grant  the 
university  received  late  last  year.  The 
grant  is  for  promotion  of  summer 
school  and  expansion  of  summer 
school  classes. 

Carter  expects  UNCW's  "Fast 
Track"  to  be  a  model  program  as 
other  universities  in  the  system  be- 
gin looking  for  ways  to  get  students 
through  college  faster.

June  is  the  time  for  alumni  and  friends  to  celebrate 

$400,000  renovation  loan  will  be  paid  off 
and  Wise  Alumni  House  will  be  dedicated 


BY  marybeth  K.  Bianchi 

For  years  the  majestic  home  was  empty, 
deteriorating,  an  eyesore  in  a  neigh- 
borhood that  once  boasted  ot  some  of 
Wilmington's  finest  houses. 

Hardwood  floors  with  delicate  inlays 
were  buckled,  dingy  paint  flaked  from  dam- 
aged plaster  walls  and  ceilings.  Graffiti  de- 
faced rare  handpainted  wallpaper. 

But  now  after  28  years,  the  house  that 
had  been  built  for  a  cotton  mill  president's 
family  and  was  later  home  to  an  heiress  is  re- 
turning to  its  former  elegance.  Thousands  of 
state  and  private  dollars  and  years  of  effort 
by  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington  and  the  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation have  paid  off. 

On  June  7,  the  Holt-Wise  House,  now 
called  UNCW's  Wise  Alumni  House,  will  be 
formally  dedicated  just  five  days  after  the  fi- 
nal payment  is  made  on  the  alumni 
association's  four-year  $400,000  renovation 
loan.  All  who  have  contributed  to  the  reno- 
vation of  the  historic  structure  are  invited  to 
celebrate  this  monumental  achievement. 

The  house  was  designed  by  B.  H. 
Stephens  and  built  in  1908-09  at  a  cost  of  $1 1,000  for 
E.  C.  Holt  in  the  then-fashionable  suburb  of  Carolina 
Heights.  Jessie  Hargrave  Kenan  Wise  purchased  the 
house  in  1916  and  lived  there  until  she  died  in  1968  at 
age  98.  Her  grandchildren,  Lawrence  Lewis,  Jr.  and 
Mary  Lily  Flagler  Lewis  Wiley,  deeded  the  house  to 
UNCW  in  1969. 

For  the  next  two  dozen  years,  the  house  was  vacant 
and  generally  neglected  because  the  young  university 
was  focusing  on  its  growth  and  development  at  its  Col- 
lege Road  campus.  When  attempts  were  made  by  uni- 
versity officials  to  use  the  structure  in  the  mid-1980s, 
there  was  opposition  from  Carolina  Heights  residents 
and  the  Wilmington  City  Council,  which  repeatedly  re- 
fused to  change  zoning  rules  to  allow  for  business  usage 
of  the  property. 

UNCW  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  was  sympa- 
thetic. Living  next  door  to  the  deteriorating  house,  he, 
too,  wanted  the  neighborhood  to  retain  its  residential 
character. 


Sitting  vacant  for  two  decades,  Wise  House  deteriorated.  Inlaid 
hardwood  floors  were  worn,  and  plaster  on  the  walls  and  ceilings 
was  damaged  as  were  the  glassed-doored  wall  cases  in  the 
grand  room  and  fireplaces  throughout  the  house. 


"I  live  there.  I  don't  want  to  live  in  an  office  park," 
he  was  quoted  in  the  local  newspaper. 

A  compromise  was  finally  reached  in  December 
1991  when  the  council  issued  a  special  use  permit  al- 
lowing for  university-related  uses  of  the  house  in  the 
History  District  Overlay  which  was  zoned  residential. 
The  six-month  permit  was  extended  another  six  months 
as  university  officials  struggled  to  find  the  funds  neces- 
sary for  repairs  to  make  the  building  usable. 

As  the  clock  ticked  toward  the  deadline,  William 
G.  Anlyan,  Jr.,  who  was  the  new  vice  chancellor  for 
UNCW's  Division  for  University  Advancement,  ap- 
proached the  UNCW  Alumni  Association  Board  of 
Directors.  They  had  talked  about  using  the  house  as  its 
headquarters,  said  John  Baldwin  '72,  who  was  chair- 
man at  that  time.  Anlyan  persuaded  the  group  to  take 
on  the  challenge. 

"The  board  felt  it  had  an  opportunity  to  preserve  its 
history,"  said  Baldwin  whose  own  love  for  the  house  is

evident  by  his  continuing  volunteet  efforts  to  raise 
money  for  its  upkeep. 

Working  with  United  Carolina  Bank,  the  alumni 
association  was  able  to  secure  a  four-year  $400,000  loan 
in  March  1993,  quite  an  undertaking  for  the  young  or- 
ganization. 

"It  was  through  Bill's  (Anlyan)  charm  and  persever- 
ance we  got  the  loan,"  Baldwin  said.  "We  had  three 


In  addition  to  raising  tens  of  thousands  of  dollars,  the  Designers 
Showcase  also  transformed  the  Wise  House  and  provided  many 
cosmetic  improvements,  above  and  beyond  what  was  paid  for  by  the 
alumni  association's  renovation  loan. 


friends  who  got  this  project  rolling,  the  chancellor,  Bill 
and  Bob  Walton  (vice  chancellor  for  Business  Affairs). 
Without  those  three  we  wouldn't  be  here  today.  The 
place  would  have  been  torn  down  in  a  few  years.  It  was 
that  big  a  disaster." 

The  money  was  used  for  the  removal  of  asbestos, 
basic  repairs  to  the  electrical,  plumbing  and  heating 
and  air  conditioning  systems  which  would  bring  the 
aging  structure  up  to  current  codes  and  to  make  it  a 
usable  facility. 

"It  was  quite  a  bit,"  Baldwin  said.  "I'm  really  sur- 
prised we  did  it  with  $400,000." 

Paying  back  that  money  has  been  the  alumni 
association's  driving  force  for  the  past  four  years.  "It 
takes  a  group  of  people  with  vision  to  come  up  with  one 
creative  event  after  another,"  Baldwin  said. 

First  there  were  the  "Hard  Hat"  parties,  casual 
events  where  guests  toured  the  building  wearing  bright 
yellow  plastic  hats  and  were  enticed  to  purchase  parts  of 
the  house:  columns,  mantels,  rooms.  Baldwin,  who  pur- 


chased the  second-floor  balcony  and  workroom  for 
$10,000,  was  instrumental  in  rallying  his  fellow  Pi 
Kappa  Phi  brothers  to  donate  more  than  $27,000  to 
purchase  the  grand  room  at  Wise  Alumni  House. 

The  biggest  project  was  the  Designers  Showcase  in 
1995,  a  three-week  event  that  brought  new  life  to  the 
house,  opened  it  up  to  thousands  oi  visitors  and  gener- 
ated much-needed  revenue  for  loan  repayment.  The 

Fantasy  Auction  in  1996,  the  raffle  of 
a  CMC  Jimmy  donated  by  former 
alumni  board  chairman  Robert  S. 
King  '66  and  the  $19.47  appeal  have 
also  been  major  fund-raisers. 

Other  events  were  held  jointly 
with  community  groups:  a  progressive 
dinner  with  Bellamy  Mansion  and 
the  wassail  bowl  with  the  Lower 
Cape  Fear  Historical  Society. 

"We've  had  a  wonderful  overflow 
of  help  from  alumni,  the  university 
and  the  community,"  Baldwin  said. 
"It  hasn't  been  hard  raising  money 
for  this  house.  People  really  want  to 
help." 

In  addition,  the  university  has 
spent  more  than  $200,000  for  im- 
provements to  the  property,  includ- 
ing the  addition  of  a  lighted  parking 
lot,  reconstruction  of  the  sunken  gar- 
den, landscaping  of  the  grounds  and 
renovation  of  the  carriage  house. 
Now  housing  the  offices  of  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  and  the 
site  of  numerous  community  and  pri- 
vate events  as  well  as  movie  sets, 
"(Wise  House)  gives  the  alumni  a 
home.  The  older  alumni  get,  they'll  think  more  of  the 
Wise  House.  It  makes  all  the  alumni  proud,"  Baldwin  said.

Places  everyone!  UNCW 
takes  the  director's  chair  and 
is  hard  at  work  bringing  the 
world  of  film  to  campus. 

A  faculty  committee  formed  by 
the  dean  of  UNCW's  College  of 
Arts  and  Sciences  has  taken  action 
by  proposing  the  establishment  of  a 
film  studies  program.  Several  fac- 
ulty members  in  the  English,  Com- 
munication Studies,  Theater  and 
History  Departments  specialize  in 
film  studies,  and  many  others  regu- 
larly teach  courses  in  film  or  use 
film  as  an  integral  component  of 
their  courses. 

Professors  including  the  chair- 
person of  the  faculty  committee, 
Philip  Furia;  Robert  Toplin  and 
Terry  Rogers,  instructors  in  film 
history  and  theory;  and  visiting 
professor  Stanley  Colbert  who 
worked  as  a  screenwriter,  director  m 
and  producer,  are  just  four  of  the 
film  specialists  at  UNCW  who  are 
excited  about  being  part  of  the  new 
program. 

The  presence  of  a  vital  film  in- 
dustry in  Wilmington,  one  that  in- 
cludes numerous  individuals  with 
expertise  in  all  areas  of  filmmaking 
and  that  regularly  brings  to  this 
area  eminent  directors,  performers 
and  other  professionals,  makes 
UNCW  a  natural  home  for  a  film 
studies  program.  Past  studio  offi- 
cials have  shown  little  interest  in 
UNCW;  Frank  Capra,  Jr.,  president 
of  Screen  Gems  Studios  Ltd.  in 
Wilmington,  was  disturbed  by  this. 

"In  Los  Angeles,  it's  just  a  fore- 
gone conclusion  that  the  universi- 
ties and  the  studios  have  longtime 
relationships,"  he  said. 

Capra  pushed  for  more  inter- 
action between  the  studios  and  the 
college.  "I  asked  Chancellor  Leutze 
what  could  we  do  to  institute  a  pro- 
gram that  would  bring  interns  from 
your  classes  to  the  studios  to  spend 
time  and  get  credit  for  it,"  he  said. 
Leutze  supported  the  idea  and  took 
steps  to  establish  the  minor.  Capra 
then  met  with  the  faculty  commit- 
tee to  discuss  the  structure  of  the 


internships  and  their  incorporation 
into  a  film  minor  program. 

This  spring,  thanks  to  Capra's 
interest,  UNCW  was  able  to  offer 
nine  student  internships  at  various 
companies  on  the  Screen  Gems  lot. 
English  major  Billy  Gamble  was  an 
intern  with  Telemedia,  an  indepen- 
dent company  at  Screen  Gems,  and 
had  hands-on  experience  with  24- 
frame  playback,  video  assist  (play- 
back on  videotape),  editing  and 
running  dailies. 

"It's  amazing  what  I've  learned. 
This  internship  has  opened  the 
doors  to  an  exciting  future  for  me," 
Billy  said.  Eddie  Blakely,  the  pro- 
duction manager  of  Telemedia,  was 
impressed  with  Gamble's  growth 
and  determined  spirit  and  hopes  to 
make  him  a  permanent  employee 
with  the  company. 

Communication  studies  major, 
Marc  Levy,  shares  Gamble's  excite- 
ment. Levy  is  working  in  Capra's 
office  concentrating  on  advertising 


and  promotion  for  Screen  Gems. 
Levy  is  creating  a  home  page  tor 
the  studio's  Website.  When  asked 
if  the  job  was  ever  intimidating, 
Levy  said,  "A  little  at  first,  but  ev- 
eryone here  is  attentive  and  eager 
to  answer  any  questions." 

The  faculty  committee  is 
pleased  with  the  internship  pro- 
gram and  is  pushing  forward  to 
continue  the  progress.  "We  have  all 
the  right  people  to  make  this  hap- 
pen: eager  students,  a  dedicated 
staff  and  cooperation  with  the  stu- 
dios. Consequently,  the  faculty  film 
committee  plans  to  do  just  that," 
Furia  said. 

He  anticipates  an  intensive 
summer  program  in  1998  that  will 
extend  the  invitation  beyond  tradi- 
tional arts  and  science  majors. 
Sharing  American  Cinema  profes- 
sor Todd  Berliner's  dilemma  for 
space  for  film  courses,  Furia  is  pro- 
posing that  one  room  of  Morton 
Hall  be  remodeled  to  accommodate

future  film  classes. 

The  internships,  which  allow 
students  to  study  aspects  of  film 
within  its  true  environment,  will 
he  only  a  portion  ot  the  proposed 
program.  The  film  minor,  requiring 
18  hours  of  study,  will  feature 
courses  on  the  analysis,  history  and 
production  ot  films.  They  will  in- 
clude American  Cinema  Since 
1961,  French  Cinema,  Performance 
tor  the  Camera,  Scriptwriting  for 
Television  and  Film,  and  Politics 
and  the  Entertainment  Media.  One 
feature  class  will  he  the  Production 
ot  Film  taught  by  Capra  at  Screen 
Gems.  Students  will  he  involved  in 
actual  filmmaking  that  teaches 
lighting  and  cinematography. 

This  is  what  senioi  Bryan 
Kupko  has  desired  for  two  years. 
Kupko  is  founder  and  past  presi- 
dent of  UNCW's  film  club,  the 
Twentieth  Century  Hawks.  A  horn 
lover  ot  the  filmmaking  art,  Kupko 
explained  his  struggles.  "I  was  dis- 
appointed when  I  learned  that 
UNCW  had  no  outlet  into  the  film 
industry.  With  the  encouragement 
of  several  professors,  I  sent  out  a 
few  flyers  to  start  a  club.  Then  I 
purchased  my  first  camera,  a  Super 
8mm,  for  $300  so  the  club 
would  have  something  to 
shoot  with." 

Kupko's  flyers  drew  in 
about  40  interested  students. 
Current  club  president, 
Tennille  Byrd,  commented 
on  the  club's  willingness  to 
work.  "There  are  a  lot  of  stu- 
dents on  campus  who  truly 
care  about  film  exploration. 
We  started  with  an  idea  and 
one  camera.  Now,  the 
Twentieth  Century  Hawks 
are  really  beginning  to  fly." 

Byrd  is  not  exaggerat- 
ing. Since  the  club's  estab- 
lishment a  year  ago, 
members  collected  several 
8mm  cameras  from  families 
and  flea  markets  and  built 
their  own  dolly  and  lighting       Frank  Copfa  Jf  fnghtj  glves  UNCW  slucjents  Jennifer  Heffinger,  Marc  Levy,  Belhanie 
devices.  They  used  this  Monroe  and  John  Roberts  a  guided  lour  of  Screen  Gems  back  lot 


equipment  to  make  their  first  fea- 
ture, "The  Thickest  Mask,"  a  42- 
minute  black-and-white  narrative 
on  Super  8  film,  and  several  other 
shorter  works.  The  club  hosted 
UNCW's  first  Candela  Film  Festi- 
val in  February  to  premiere  their 
feature  and  to  show  several  inde- 
pendent films.  The  event  drew  in 
an  audience  of  more  than  100. 

The  Twentieth  Century  Hawks 
are  currently  hard  at  work  on  three 
16mm  shorts,  "House  of  Pancakes," 
"Orpheus"  and  "The  Bakery,"  for 
future  film  festivals.  They  also  cre- 
ated  a  public  service  announcement 
and  documentary  tor  the  dance 
marathon  SCA  hosted  tor  the 
Duke's  Children  Miracle  Network 
in  April. 

"Interaction  with  student  gov- 
ernment and  other  school  functions 
are  a  primary  focus  for  the  club.  We 
want  to  show  everyone  the  influ- 
ence the  medium  of  film  has,"  said 
Byrd. 

The  Hawks  have  the  opportu- 
nity to  grow  along  with  the  film  mi- 
nor. The  club  is  proud  of  the 
influence  it  has  had  on  the  school's 
boost  tor  the  film  studies  program. 
Members  realize  that  it  could  not 


have  happened  without  the  hard 
work  and  collaboration  of  the  (ac- 
uity and  the  studios,  kupko  said 
the  club  owes  a  debt  of  gratitude 
to  the  professors'  interest  and  the 
studio.-,'  support. 

"Screen  Gems  has  donated 
over  $12,000  worth  of  lighting 
equipment  and  has  agreed  to  lei 
us  use  their  backlol  for  the  shoot- 
ing of  The  Bakery.'  Also,  joe 
Dunton  c*  Company,  where  1  do 
my  internship  is  always  willing  to 
help  our  with  equipment  and  ad- 
vice," he  said. 

UNCW  has  visions  of  new  fa- 
new  classes  and  student 
the  future.  Thanks  to  the 
eagerness  of  the  College  of  Arts  & 
Sciences'  faculty  film  committee, 
the  Twentieth  Century  Hawks 
and  Frank  Capra  with  Screen 
Gems  Studios,  the  establishment 
ot  the  new  film  minor  is  expected 
tor  fall  1998  with  the  hopes  of  a 
complete  film  studies  program  to 

follow.

sity Relations.

By  Vickie  Yearby  '95 


With  a  green  slime  coating 
and  pollution  so  oxy- 
gen-depleting that  the 
river  cannot  sustain  life,  North 
Carolina's  Neuse  River  has  been  a 
priority  in  the  legislature  for  the 
last  two  years.  But  only  recently,  in 
the  wake  of  two  major  hurricanes, 
has  concern  about  the  health  of  the 
Cape  Fear  River  become  an  issue  in 
the  General  Assembly.  If  this  river 
is  to  recover  from  devastation 
caused  by  natural  and  human  im- 
pacts, the  Cape  Fear  River  needs 
more  than  attention;  it  needs 
money  to  continue  and  expand  cur- 
rent research  efforts. 

For  9,000  square  miles  and  27 
counties,  the  Cape  Fear  River  has 
been  the  focus  for  economic  devel- 
opment since  the  17th  century. 
Water  quality  has  been  and  re- 
mains central  to  commercial  fish- 
ing, industry,  transportation, 
tourism,  recreation,  public  drinking 


water  supplies,  real  estate  develop- 
ment and  quality  of  life. 

"We  can't  have  a  healthy 
economy  without  the  river,"  said 
Camilla  Herlevich,  director  of  the 
Cape  Fear  River  Program. 

Legislators  from  the  Cape  Fear 
area  are  seeking  $3.8  million  to  im- 
prove water  quality  by  expanding 
water  testing.  UNCW  scientists  be- 
gan regularly  testing  water  in  the 
Cape  Fear  River  at  34  spots  two 
years  ago  to  gather  better  data  on 
the  river's  health.  This  research 
needs  to  be  extended  to  include 
sediment  sampling  and  studying 
the  health  of  different  fish  species 
in  the  river,  Herlevich  said.  One- 
third  of  the  money  requested  would 
be  designated  to  UNCW's  Cape 
Fear  River  Program  for  water  qual- 
ity testing. 

The  Cape  Fear  River  Program, 
initiated  by  Wilmington  Industrial 
Development,  Inc.,  was  established 


in  April  1994  by  UNCW  when  the 
Environmental  Management  Com- 
mission designated  the  Cape  Fear 
River  as  a  high  quality  water  area. 
This  would  have  put  a  stop  to  new 
discharge  permits,  which  would 
have  halted  industrial  growth  for 
the  region.  Wilmington's  Chamber 
of  Commerce  petitioned  the  com- 
mission, requesting  they  first  inves- 
tigate the  water's  quality  before 
stopping  economic  development. 
They  agreed.  The  Cape  Fear  River 
Program  was  established  to  monitor 
the  river's  water  quality  which  in- 
cludes testing  for  salinity,  light  re- 
duction, microscopic  plants  and 
animals  and  productivity. 

The  goal  of  the  Cape  Fear 
River  Program  is  to  preserve  and 
restore  water  quality  in  the  river 
while  allowing  for  recreation,  com- 
merce and  industry  in  the  region. 

Nineteen  monitoring  stations 
have  been  established  in  the  river 


SPRING     97 


from  the  main  stem,  which  is  the 
portion  of  the  river  originating  in 
the  Piedmont  region,  to  the  North- 
east Cape  Fear.  The  Cape  Fear 
River  Program  tests  areas  that  are 
non-point  sources  of  pollution, 
which  do  not  require  monitoring  by 
the  state.  New  programs  to  test 
sedimentation  runoff  are  being 
implemented  in  the  Black  and 
Northeast  Cape  Fear  Rivers. 

While  the  Cape  Fear  River  Pro- 
gram has  been  monitoring  the  qual- 
ity of  the  river's  water  for  1 8 
months,  it  has  just  broken  the  sur- 
face of  investigating  sources  of  the 
river's  pollution.  Fish  samples  taken 
at  the  beginning  of  this  year  found 
the  fish  population  in  the  North- 
east Cape  Fear  to  be  much  lower 
then  normal  due  to  Hurricanes  Ber- 
tha and  Fran.  The  fish  that  are  re- 
populating  the  area  are  coming 
from  estuaries,  rather  than  from 
fresh  water.  While  they  are  hardier, 
it  will  still  be  a  while  before  the 
population  is  restored,  stated  Mike 
Mallin,  research  coordinator  for  the 
Cape  Fear  River  Program  and  re- 
search associate  for  UNCW's  Cen- 
ter for  Marine  Science  Research. 

"The  main  stem  of  the  river  is 
recovering  normally,  but  the  north- 
east area  is  still  suffering  from  lin- 
gering pollution  effects,"  Mallin 
said. 

A  press  conference  was  held 
last  November  to  reveal  the  Cape 
Fear  River  Program's  first  year's 
findings.  The  data  indicated  that 
the  river  is  under  severe  and  in- 
creasing threats. 

"We  need  additional  research 
to  probe  the  underlying  reasons  for 
the  decrease  in  water  quality;  in 
particular,  the  algal  blooms,  fish 
kills  and  high  turbidity  concentra- 
tions that  plague  our  river,"  stated 
UNCW  Chancellor  James  R. 
Leutze.  He  also  challenged  deci- 
sion-makers to  make  the  health  of 
the  Cape  Fear  River  a  priority  dur- 
ing the  next  legislative  season. 

With  funding  from  the  Water 
Resources  Research  Institute,  scien- 
tists from  UNCW  are  conducting 


The  challenge  now  is  to 
make  sure  water  quality 
stays  protected  and  to  figure  out 
where  threats  are  coming  from 
before  we  allow  additional 
pollution  on  the  hanks  of  the 
Cape  Fear  River.' 


Camilla  Herlevich 


research  to  investigate  the  effects 
of  additional  nutrients  from 
swine  farms  on  the  river  and 
whether  or  not  they  stimulate 
the  growth  of  bacteria  in  the  wa- 
ter. UNCW  researchers  have  also 
begun  tracing  the  recovery  of 
benthic  organisms,  which  live  at 
the  bottom  of  the  river. 

While  a  number  of  research 
projects  have  focused  on  the  effects 
of  the  hurricanes  on  the  river,  little 
has  been  done  to  determine  the  ef- 
fects of  chemical  pollution  on  the 
Cape  Fear.  This  is  the  next  issue 
the  Cape  Fear  River  Program  hopes 
to  address,  Mallin  pointed  out. 

The  Cape  Fear  River  Program 
has  ambitious  plans  to  expand  its 
water  quality  testing  into  the 
middle  and  upper  basins  of  the 
river.  The  program  will  also  in- 
crease the  number  of  elements  stud- 
ied to  include  biological  indications 
such  as  fish  disease,  analysis  of  sedi- 
ments for  heavy  metal  concentra- 
tion and  the  effect  of  dredging. 
Water  quality  is  not  the  only  issue 
for  certain  areas  of  the  river.  While 
the  water  quality  in  the  upper  basin 
is  high,  its  quantity  is  low. 

Many  people  are  concerned 
that  the  Cape  Fear  River  could  end 
up  like  its  neighbor,  the  Neuse. 
Mallin  said  this  is  not  the  case. 
"They  are  physically  different. 


The  Neuse  River  is  bound  by  the 
Outer  Banks,  so  the  water 
doesn't  flush  as  much.  The  Cape 
Fear  has  a  different  set  of  prob- 
lems. For  example,  in  the  sum- 
mer the  river's  water  has  a  low 
dissolved  oxygen  level,  which 
makes  it  more  primed  for  prob- 
lems," he  said. 

Concern  for  the  Cape  Fear 
River  is  growing.  "Residents  are  be- 
ginning to  understand  that  both 
natural  and  man-made  activities  af- 
fect the  quality  of  the  river  and  that 
this  river  is  the  source  of  their 
drinking  water.  They  are  also  be- 
ginning to  value  the  work  that  the 
Cape  Fear  River  Program  does," 
Herlevich  said. 

Even  though  the  state  of  the 
Cape  Fear  River  is  not  as  severe  as 
that  of  the  Neuse,  actions  to  pre- 
vent further  degradation  need  to  be 
taken  now.  Herlevich  said,  "The 
challenge  now  is  to  make  sure  water 
quality  stays  protected  and  to  figure 
out  where  threats  are  coming  from 
before  we  allow  additional  pollu- 
tion on  the  banks  of  the  Cape  Fear 
River.  The  neat  thing  about  the 
Cape  Fear  is  that  we  have  a  chance 
to  figure  out  what  is  going  on  before 
we  have  to  repair  it."

UNCW  celebrates  golden  anniversary 
at  events  planned  throughout  1997-98 


By  Stacy  D'Alcamo  and  Jennifer  Heffinger 


What  started  in  1946  as 
the  Wilmington  College 
Center  of  the  University 
of  North  Carolina,  with  nearly  250 
students  taking  classes  at  two  high 
schools,  has  grown  in  50  years  into 
a  full-fledged  university  with  9,100 
students  and  a  650-acre  campus 
with  more  than  70  buildings. 

As  it  celebrates  its  golden  an- 
niversary over  the  next  year  and  a 
half,  the  University  of  North  Caro- 
lina at  Wilmington  continues  to 
experience  growth  with  the  addi- 
tion of  new  buildings,  increased  en- 
rollment and  widespread 
recognition  on  both  the  academic 
and  athletic  playing  fields.  Long- 
range  plans  call  for  several  new 
classroom  buildings  and  15,000  stu- 
dents by  2005. 

The  50th  anniversary  is  a  mile- 
stone in  the  life  of  this  institution 
and  is  an  opportunity  for  alumni, 
the  university  and  Wilmington 
area  community  to  recount  the  im- 
pact UNCW  has  had  on  this  re- 
gion, the  state  and  the  nation. 
Most  influenced  by  the  impact  of 
the  university  are  the  alumni.  As 
memories  begin  to  fade,  this  cel- 
ebration serves  as  a  means  of  recap- 
turing those  wonderful  moments  of 
personal  growth  and  the  bonds  of 
friendship  experienced  by  every 
college  class.  The  university  hopes 
that  the  events  held  during  the 
1997-1998  celebration  will  re- 
kindle the  passion  of  former  stu- 
dents and  faculty  and  heighten  the 
community's  awareness  of  the 
university's  positive  impact  on  the 
region. 

Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  be- 
lieves the  growth  and  changes  ex- 
perienced over  the  last  50  years  at 
UNCW  have  been  for  the  best. 
"The  tremendous  progress  we  have 


made  from  a  small  college  center  to 
a  regional  university  is  amazing.  1 
hope  that  it  is  gratifying  to  the 
founders  of  the  university,"  he  said. 

UNCW  kicked  off  its  celebra- 
tion homecoming  weekend  in  Janu- 
ary with  the  hanging  of  large 
banners  displaying  the  50th  anni- 
versary logo  which  is  a  circle  en- 
closing a  sunrise  with  a  stylized 
Seahawk  soaring  toward  the  sun. 
Smaller  banners  will  be  hung  from 
lampposts  on  campus  for  com- 
mencement in  May  and  will  remain 
hanging  throughout  the  entire  cel- 
ebration. 

The  first  formal  event  to  cel- 
ebrate the  university's  golden  anni- 
versary will  be  convocation  on 
August  19.  Officials  hope  to  bring 
in  a  prominent  figure  as  the  guest 
speaker.  The  hour-long  program 
will  be  followed  by  a  picnic. 

On  October  17  and  18,  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  will 
host  the  Wilmington  College  re- 
union. The  Friday  night  reception 
will  be  held  at  Wise  Alumni  House 
with  retired  faculty  and  members  of 
the  Order  of  Isaac  Bear  as  featured 
guests.  On  Saturday,  an  old-fash- 
ioned sock  hop  will  be  held  in  the 
University  Center  and  will  include 
a  barbecue  dinner,  a  short  program 
in  the  Center  Stage  Cafe  and  en- 
tertainment by  a  DJ. 

The  50th  anniversary  will  also 
be  the  focus  of  homecoming  week- 
end, February  7-8,  1998.  At  the 
awards  dinner,  former  alumni  board 
members  and  chairs  will  be  hon- 
ored along  with  golden  alumni  vol- 
unteers and  others  who  have  played 
a  vital  role  in  the  university's 
growth.  The  Saturday  night  dance 
will  be  moved  to  Wagoner  Hall  be- 
cause a  large  turnout  is  expected. 

Other  special  50th  anniversary 


events  are  in  the  planning  stages, 
and  most  events  hosted  by  the  uni- 
versity will  be  tied  into  the  year- 
long observance.  Specially  designed 
memorabilia  commemorating  the 
anniversary  will  be  available 
throughout  the  year.  These  include 
a  circular  cloisonne  pin  along  with 
luggage  tags,  leather  book  marks, 
decals  and  other  items. 

The  50th  anniversary  celebra- 
tion is  a  time  to  remember  those 
community   leaders  who  helped 
forge  quality  higher  education  in 
southeastern  North  Carolina  and 
the  dedicated   individuals  who 
through  the  years  have  carried  out 
their  dreams  to  make  UNCW  a 
driving  force  behind  the  growth 
and  development  of  the  region  and 
its  people. 

A  1948  Wilmington  Star-Neivs 
editorial,  published  the  day 
Wilmington  College  received  its 
accreditation  and  became  a  mem- 
ber of  the  American  Association  of 
Junior  Colleges,  seems  prophetic 
almost  50  years  later: 

"The  spirit  which  brought  the 
college  into  being  continues  as  de- 
termined and  strong  as  the  day  it 
burst  forth  with  such  strength  that 
the  demands  for  the  institution 
could  not  be  refused.  Support  of 
the  college,  now  that  its  practical 
benefits  have  been  demonstrated,  is 
greater  than  ever.  May  the  college's 
outstanding  accomplishments  in  its 
short  past  encourage  its  friends  not 
only  to  dream  and  plan  but  to  build 
a  greater  institution  and  widen  its 
range  of  service  in  the  future."

nifer Heffinger  are  public  relations  in-

Gift  of  stock  is  a  capital  gain  for  UNCW 


With  the  stock  market 
booming,  many  people 
are  looking  for  ways  to 
ease  the  pain  of  paying  substantial 
capital  gains  taxes.  One  way  is  by 
using  your  stocks  to  make  a  tax-de- 
ductible gift  to  a  nonprofit  institu- 
tion like  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington.  The 
money  realized  from  your  gift  of 
stock  can  be  used  to  fund  scholar- 
ships or  supplement  other  aca- 
demic/support programs  at  UNCW. 
Here  are  a  few  tips  it  you  would 
like  to  make  a  gift  of  stock  to  the 
university: 

If  your  shares  are  held  in  an  ac- 
count, your  broker  can  make  an 
electronic  transfer  of  the  shares  to 
the  University  of  North  Carolina 
at  Wilmington  Foundation.  Donis 
Willis,  our  broker,  can  discuss  the 
details  of  this  transaction  and  can 
be  reached  at  910-392-0020.  Once 
the  stock  is  transferred  into 
UNCW's  account,  we  will  be  noti- 
fied and  a  receipt  will  be  sent  to 
you.  The  effective  date  of  the  gift 


for  this  method  is  the  date  the 
shares  are  placed  into  our  account. 

If  you  hold  the  certificate  for 
your  shares,  you  can  sign  the  stock 
over  to  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington  Founda- 
tion either  by  endorsing  the  back 
of  the  certificate  or  by  using  a  stock 
power,  and  mail  it  to  Tyrone 
Rovvell,  interim  vice  chancellor  for 
University  Advancement,  601  S. 
College  Road,  Wilmington,  N.  C. 
28403.  Due  to  the  nature  of  the 
document  being  mailed,  we  recom- 
mend that  you  send  it  via  certified/ 
registered/express  mail.  When  the 
certificate  is  received,  it  will  be  liq- 
uidated immediately,  and  a  receipt 
will  be  sent  to  you.  The  effective 
date  for  this  method  is  the  date  of 
the  postmark. 

To  complete  the  gift  transac- 
tion, please  advise  Tyrone  Rowell 
of  UNCW  University  Advance- 
ment of  the  designation  for  the

Countdown  on 
to  meet  goals 
of  annual  fund 

By  Jennifer  el  am 

The  countdown  is  on  to  June 
30,  1997.  This  day  marks 
the  end  of  our  fiscal  year 
and  is  the  last  day  to  meet  the  an- 
nual fund  goal. 

We  have  had  a  great  momen- 
tum this  year  and  are  excited  about 
the  support  that  alumni,  parents 
and  friends  have  given  to  UNCW. 
These  contributions  are  vital  to 
meeting  the  greater  needs  of  the 
university  for  which  the  state  of 
North  Carolina  does  not  provide. 
UNCW  is  assisted  by  the  state,  but 
it  does  not  receive  its  total  operat- 
ing budget  from  this  source. 

Because  of  this,  I  hope  you  will 
contribute  to  the  Loyalty  Fund  be- 
fore June  30  if  you  have  not  yet 
given.  Even  if  you  have  donated  this 
year,  an  extta  $5  to  $10  from  all 
those  who  are  already  donors  would 
make  a  significant  diffetence. 

Every  donation,  regardless  of 
size,  is  valuable  to  UNCW.  It  posi- 
tively impacts  the  lives  of  students, 
faculty  and  staff.  Please  help 
UNCW  reach  its  year-end  goal  by 
sending  your  check  made  payable 
to  the  Loyalty  Fuud  to:  University 
Advancement,  The  University  of 
North  Carolina  at  Wilmington, 
601  South  College  Road,  Wilming- 
ton, NC  28403-3297. 

With  UNCW  celebrating  its 
50th  anniversary,  there  is  no  better 
time  to  be  involved.  Thank  you  for 
your  support  and  consideration.

ALUMNI    PROFILE 


Robison  s  interest  in  students  spurs  his  volunteer  service 


By  Lisa  Marie  Innacelli 

It  may  have  been  14  years  since 
he  graduated,  but  Marvin 
Robison's  high  regard  for  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington  has  not  diminished. 

Before  an  interviewer  could 
pose  the  first  question,  Robison  '83 
was  making  his  own  inquiries. 
When  are  you  going  to  graduate? 
What  kind  of  job  are  you  looking  for? 

Robison's  unwavering  interest 
in  and  concern  for  students  and  his 
alma  mater  is  evident  in  his  active 
support  of  university  programs.  He 
feels  that  way  because  of  the  influ- 
ence UNCW  has  had  on  his  own 
life.  Through  his  alumni  activities, 
Robison  is  giving  back  to  the  uni- 
versity that  gave  so  much  to  him. 

Robison  served  on  the  alumni  as- 
sociation board  of  directors  from  1987 
to  1995  and  was  chairman  1993  to 
1994. 

When  he  was  vice  chair, 
Robison  became  involved  in  rhe 
Wise  Alumni  House  renovation 
project  which  was  completed  during 
his  term  as  chairman.  He  said  he  is 
most  proud  of  this  effort  since  uni- 
versity officials  were  skeptical  of  the 
board's  endeavor.  It  had  just  four 
years  to  pay  off  the  $400,000  reno- 
vation loan.  Robison  is  proud  to  say 
that  in  June  the  debt  will  be  paid. 
Another  important  fund-raising 
project  Robison  managed  was  the 
establishment  of  an  alumni  credit 
card  through  BB&.T  in  1994. 

Currently,  Robison  is  a  member 
of  the  Seahawk  Club  board  of  direc- 
tors and  is  on  several  fund-raising 
committees.  He  is  often  seen  at 
UNCW  basketball  games  cheering 
and  screaming  for  his  beloved 
Seahawks. 

His  community  service  is  not 
confined  to  UNCW.  Robison  is  a 
member  of  a  local  Rotary  Club.  In 
1987  he  was  named  Rotarian  of  the 
Year,  served  on  the  board  of  direc- 


tors from  1990-1994,  was  club  presi- 
dent from  1992-1993,  and  became  a 
Paul  Harris  Fellow  in  1995.  He  is 
also  active  with  Family  Services  of 
the  Lower  Cape  Fear,  serving  on  the 
board  of  directors  from  1992  to  1995 
and  as  honorary  campaign  chairman 
for  the  1995  membership  drive.  He 
is  a  member  of  the  First  Presbyterian 
Church  where  he  has  been  on  the 
board  of  deacons  since  1996  and  has 
served  on  several  other  committees. 

Robison  does  not  stop  there  in 
his  effort  to  give  back  to  the  commu- 
nity. He  also  has  served  on  fund-rais- 
ing committees  for  the  Boy  Scouts  of 
America,  the  Wilmington  Economic 
Development  Committee  of  100,  the 
American  Heart  Association  and  the 
Franklin  Graham  Crusade. 

While  attending  UNCW, 
Robison's  experiences  were  different 
than  many  in  his  class  and  today's 
students.  He  began  college  at  the 
age  of  19,  after  working  for  two  years 
at  Fleishman's  Clothing  Store  in 
Wilmington.  He  attended  UNCW 
part-time  and  worked  full-time  for 
six  years  before  graduating  in  1983  at 
the  age  of  25  with  a  bachelor  of  arts 
in  business  administration. 

Robison  said  UNCW  has  un- 
dergone many  positive  changes 


since  1983.  He  believes  the  quality 
of  professors  has  increased,  and  the 
Cameron  School  of  Business  is  one 
of  the  best  in  the  state  of  North 
Carolina.  He  is  proud  to  have  his 
degree  from  there. 

"As  you  graduate  you  may  not 
value  your  degree,  you  are  just  glad  to 
have  it,  but  as  you  grow  older  it  be- 
comes more  important  to  you,"  he  said. 

His  education  did  not  end  at 
UNCW.  He  attended  Aetna  Life 
Insurance  Company's  Estate  Plan- 
ning School  in  1991  and  recently 
received  his  Chartered  Life  Under- 
writer Designation  through  Ameri- 
can College.  He  holds  his  insurance 
and  brokers  licenses. 

Robison  is  married  to  former 
Margaret  Re  id  Taylor,  who  worked 
for  UNCW  for  13  years  in  Auxiliary 
Services  and  as  director  of  develop- 
ment. They  have  three  children: 
Taylor,  7;  William,  4;  and  Ross,  1. 
Robison  is  self-employed,  specializ- 
ing in  life  insurance  and  good  em- 
ployee benefits,  and  is  an  associate 
of  George  Chadwick  Insurance  of 
Wilmington. 

A  senior  communication  studies 
major,  Lisa  Marie  Innacelli  is  an  intern 
with  UNCW  University  Relations.

Pollards,  Boneys  honored 


UNCW  alumni  John  Manly 
Pollard,  Jr.  '70  and 
Caroline  Smith  Pollard  '73 
and  Wilmington  residents  Leslie  N. 
Boney,  Jr.  and  Lillian  Bellamy 
Boney  were  honored  for  their  con- 
tributions to  UNCW,  the  alumni 
association  and  the  community 
during  UNCW's  homecoming 
weekend  celebration. 


Caroline  and  John  Pollard 


The  Pollards  received  the 
UNCW  Alumni  Association's  1997 
Distinguished  Alumni  Award.  The 
Boneys  received  the  association's 
award  tor  Distinguished  Citizens  for 
Service  to  the  University. 

Both  John  and  Caroline  Pollard 
have  been  instrumental  in  helping 
the  alumni  association  retire  its 
$400,000  Wise  Alumni  House  reno- 
vation loan.  The  Boneys  have 
h       contributed  in  many  ways  to 
UNCW  over  the  years.  Most 
recently  they  established  and 
endowed  a  scholarship  to  the 
university  in  memory  of  Mr. 
Boney 's  father,  Leslie  N. 
Boney.  Mr.  Boney  assisted  in 
the  planning  of  the  campus's 
first  buildings  and  was  instru- 
mental in  establishing  the 
characteristic  Neo-Georgian 
style  of  architecture.  Mrs. 
Boney  was  among  the  first 
students  at  Wilmington  Col- 
lege. She  studied  art  at 
UNCW  under  Claude 
Howell,  now  deceased. 


Blizzard  elected  chairman  for  97-98 


Tammy  Blizzard  '83  will  lead 
the  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation during  1997-98. 

Blizzard,  who  was  elected  to 
the  board  in  1994,  was  the  board's 
treasurer.  She  is  director  of  ac- 
counting at  UNCW. 

Joining  her  in  leadership  will 
be  Tom  Lamont  '80,  assignment 
editor  at  WW  AY-TV  3,  as  vice 
chairman;  Tricia  Staton  '93,  flight 
attendant  with  USAirways,  as  sec- 
retary; and  Livian  Jones  '95,  presi- 
dent of  Stephens  6k  Jones 
Construction,  Inc.,  as  treasurer. 

Jones  and  Bill  Herrett  '87,  who 
served  one-year  terms  as  board  al- 
ternates, were  elected  to  three-year 
terms  on  the  board.  Blizzard  and 


Tom  Hodges  '73  were  re-elected  to 
second  three-year  terms,  and  Ed 
Yosnock  and  Nadine  Batuyios  are 
new  board  members  elected  to

Moore  '96,  Bob  Harris  '81, 
Caroline  Pollard  '73  and  Andrew 
Duppstadt  '96.

Jim  Stasios  '70,  Dru  Farrar  '73, 
Veronica  McLaurin  '72  and  Richard 
Pratt  '71  as  they  rotate  off  the  board. 

The  new  officers  and  board

will  begin  their  terms  in  July  1.

It  will  he  on  permanent  dis- 
play in  the  department  offices. 

"The  chapter  gives  communi- 
cation studies  majors  a  special  bond 
in  that  they  feel  like  they  joined 
something  worthwhile,"  said 
Ratcliff.  "If  we  continue  to  try  to 
reach  other  graduates,  we'll  con- 
tinue to  increase  our  membership." 

The  chapter,  which  currently 
has  60  members,  is  committed  to 
supporting  the  Communication 
Studies  Department,  the  alumni  as- 
sociation and  current  communica- 
tion studies  students.  One  way 
members  are  doing  this  is  by  work- 
ing to  endow  a  scholarship  in 
memory  of  the  department's  founder 
and  former  chair,  Betty  Jo  Welch. 

"Without  Betty  Jo's  influence, 
we  would  probably  not  have  a 
Communication  Studies  Depart- 
ment at  UNCW,"  said  Tom 
Lamont,  chairman  of  the  chapter's 
scholarship  committee.  "I  hope  all 
UNCW  communication  alumni 
support  this  effort  and  contribute 
to  the  scholarship  fund.  In  fact,  the 
family  of  the  late  Dr.  Betty  Jo 
Welch,  has  agreed  to  match  the 


chapter's  first  $5,000." 

The  chapter  co-hosted  a  ban- 
quet to  honor  senior  communication 
studies  majors  on  April  21.  In  May, 
members  will  participate  in  the 
department's  commencement  cer- 
emony to  support  the  graduates  and 
encourage  them  to  get  involved. 

The  chapter  welcomes  new 
members.  Meetings  are  at  6:30  p.m. 
the  first  Wednesday  of  each  month 
at  Wise  Alumni  House.  The  chap- 
ter is  actively  raising  funds  to  en- 
dow the  Welch  scholarship. 
Anyone  who  would  like  to  contrib- 
ute or  become  an  active  member 
can  contact  the  alumni  association 
office  at  Wise  House.

CHAIRMAN'S   REPORT 


It  has  been  an  exciting  year  for 
me  as  chairman  of  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association.  I've 
watched  with  pride  at  the  growth 
of  our  chapters  and  the  enthusiastic 
response  of  alumni  to  get  involved. 

At  homecoming  we  recognized 
outstanding  individuals  who  have 
made  a  difference,  not  only  to  our 
association,  but  to  the  university 
and  entire  community.  Our  board 
meeting  was  characterized  by  an  en- 
thusiasm that  both  board  members 
and  guests  felt  and  carried  on 
throughout  the  day.  We  decorated 
the  ballroom  for  that  evening's 
dance,  attended  a  reception  spon- 
sored by  the  AAGA  Chapter,  par- 
ticipated in  the  pregame  social 
where  the  Communication  Studies 
Chapter  unveiled  its  charter, 
cheered  our  Seahawks  on  to  victory 
over  the  ECU  Pirates,  crowned  the 
1997  Homecoming  queen,  Kristin 
Todd,  and  king,  Nate  Stansfield, 
and  then  headed  for  the  dance.  It 
was  a  very  busy,  but  fun-filled  week- 
end. If  you  missed  out,  be  sure  to 
mark  your  calendar  for  next  year's 
homecoming,  which  will  be  a  special 
event  tied  in  with  the  university's 
50th  anniversary  celebration. 

The  center  of  many  alumni  ac- 
tivities is  Wise  Alumni  House. 
From  the  dedications  of  the  Pi 
Kappa  Phi,  BB&T  and  Constance 
and  John  F.  Phillips'  rooms,  alumni 
lectures,  graduates'  receptions,  and 
countless  chapter  and  committee 
meetings,  the  house  plays  an  in- 
creasingly important  role  for  the 
alumni  association,  the  university 
and  the  community.  It  has  given 
our  association  an  identity  to 
which  all  alumni  can  relate. 

Our  campaign  to  pay  off  the 
note  on  Wise  Alumni  House  is 
nearing  its  end.  The  raffle  of  the 
CMC  Jimmy  donated  by  Bob  King 
'66  was  very  successful,  and  the 
alumni  association  can  take  pride 
in  the  effort  to  "step  up"  ticket 


sales  to  reach 
our  goal.  The 
1947  appeal  is 
still  underway.  If 
you  haven't  re- 
turned your  con- 
tribution, there 
is  still  time.  We 
do  appreciate 
everyone's  par- 
ticipation in  these  and  the  many 
other  fund-raisers  the  association 
has  held  during  the  past  four  years. 
The  success  we  have  achieved  up 
to  this  point  could  not  have  been 
possible  without  your  support. 

Plans  for  the  university's  50th 


Melton  '74 


anniversary  are  well  underway  and 
were  kicked  off  with  the  hanging  of 
the  first  celebratory  banner  at  Wise 
Alumni  House  homecoming  week- 
end. Your  alumni  association  will 
play  an  important  role  in  this  cel- 
ebration. 

This  has  been  a  banner  year  for 
the  UNCW  Alumni  Association, 
and  the  efforts  of  the  Alumni  Rela- 
tions staff,  Pat  Corcoran,  Mike 
Arnold,  Tracie  Chadwick  and 
Nannette  White,  make  it  possible 
tor  us  to  accomplish  all  that  we  do

After  four  years  and  an  he- 
roic effort  by  alumni,  uni- 
versity, community  and 
friends,  we  are  just  about  there. 
The  UNCW  Alumni  Association  is 
in  its  final  stretch  to  the  finish  line 
to  pay  off  our  $400,000 
loan  with  United  Carolina 
Bank  for  extensive  renova- 
tions to  Wise  Alumni 
House. 

Countless  new  friend- 
ships were  made  along  the 
way  and  existing  ties  deep- 
ened by  the  intensity  of  this 
special  project.  The  spirit  of 
Wise  Alumni  House  has 
captured  the  hearts  of  thou- 
sands of  individuals  who  became 
champions  for  the  cause.  This  same 
spirit  has  sustained  our  driving  ef- 
fort since  1993. 

Built  in  1908,  the  house  is 
much  more  than  the  visible  7,484 
square  feet.  Wise  Alumni  House  is 
a  special  part  of  many  of  our  lives. 
As  my  office  is  located  in  the  heart 
of  the  alumni  house,  I  have  experi- 
enced many  levels  of  pain  and 
progress  over  the  past  four  years. 
Project  managers  Pat  Hawkins, 


Corcoran 


Cherry  Woodbury,  Beth  Cherry  and 
Nannette  White  and  countless  vol- 
unteers assisted  our  board  of  directors 
in  its  task  of  raising  the  necessary 
funds  to  retire  the  debt.  We  thank  all 
of  you  most  sincerely. 

On  June  7,  we  will 
dedicate  Wise  Alumni 
House,  five  days  after  pay- 
ing off  the  note.  We  cor- 
dially invite  all  of  you  to 
join  us  in  a  special  cel- 
ebration that  evening 
honoring  you  and  all 
those  who  assisted  our  as- 
sociation in  saving  and  re- 
storing this  special 
residence. 

The  next  step  for  Miss  Jessie's 
house  is  exterior  repair  and  beauti- 
fication  which  UNCW  will  begin 
soon.  These  final  touches  to  this 
treasured  house,  restoring  it  to  its 
original  grace  and  grandeur,  will 
compliment  the  neighborhood, 
university  and  entire  community. 
Again,  thank  you  for  caring  enough 
to  rescue  this  historic  home.

The  Wilmington  College  Cen- 
ter of  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  opened  its  doors  in 
1946,  and  on  November  1  1, 
Donald  Blake  was  elected  presi- 
dent of  the  student  body. 

Of  the  more  than  200  students 
enrolled,  1  1  1  secret  ballots  were 
cast  with  a  majority  naming  Blake 
over  his  two  competitors,  Selma 
Coble  and  Dan  Vick. 

A  native  of  Wilmington  whose 
roots  in  the  area  go  back  to  the 
1  700s,  Blake  was  like  many  other 
students  enrolled  at  the  center.  He 
was  22  and  a  World  War  II  vet- 
eran. He  attended  evening  classes 
held  at  New  Hanover  High  School 
and  worked  during  the  day.  It  took 
him  several  years  to  earn  a  degree, 
finally  graduating  in  1950. 

The  next  year,  he  was 


SPRING   97 


elected  president  of  the  Wilmington 
College  Alumni  Association  and 
changed  the  organization's  consti- 
tution to  admit  students  as  well  as 
graduates  as  members;  however, 
only  those  with  an  associate  of  arts 
degree  could  be  officers. 

His  involvement  was  short-lived 
because  he  was  called  back  to 
active  Army  duty  for  the  Korean 
War.  He  served  for  a  total  of  27 
years  as  an  Army  photographer 
and  public  affairs  officer,  retiring 
in  1971  as  a  lieutenant  colonel. 

Calling  himself  "a  little  country 
boy  from  Wilmington,"  Blake  re- 
turned home  to  found  a  magazine, 
Graphic  Antiquarian,  open  com- 
mercial printing  businesses,  Blake 
Printing  and  Bee-Line  Copy  Cen- 
ters, and  serve  his  community  on 
the  boards  of  the  county  commis- 
sioners, health  and  Cape  FearCom- 
munity  College  trustees. 

Now  retired,  Blake 
and  a  few  of  his  friends 
from  the  Wilmington  Col- 
lege  days   get   together 
monthly  at  a  local  restau- 
rant and  reminisce.

Major  achievements 
A  in  marine  sciences 


UNCW  celebrates  two  of 
three  major  marine  sci- 
ence achievements  this 
year:  the  rededication  of 
the  Aquarius  underwater 
laboratory  and  the 
groundbreaking  for  a  new 
$17.5  million  Center  for 
Marine  Science  Research. 


School  of  Nursing  plans 
new  master's  program 


UNCW's  School  of  Nursing 
plans  to  attack  major  health 
problems  in  southeastern 
North  Carolina  with  the  help  of 
a  three-year,  $720,199  grant 
from  the  U.  S.  Department  of 
Health  and  Human  Services. 

The  first  year  of  the  grant  will 
provide  money  to  plan  a 
master's  degree  program  for 
rural  and  urban  family  nurse 
practitioners.  The  proposed 
program  will  be  submitted  to 
the  UNC  Board  of  Governors  for 
approval,  and  the  remaining 
funding  will  be  used  to  imple- 
ment the  program  during  the 
next  two  years. 

The  new  degree  program  will 
enable  graduates  to  become 
family  nurse  practitioners,  pro- 


viding medical  services  nor- 
mally associated  with  physi- 
cians, such  as  making 
diagnoses,  ordering  tests  and 
prescribing  medicines. 

In  seeking  the  grant,  the  School 
of  Nursing  cited  higher  than 
normal  incidence  rates  for 
heart  disease,  diabetes,  stroke, 
cancer,  substance  abuse,  teen 
pregnancy  and  motor  vehicle 
accidents  among  uninsured 
and  underinsured  residents  of 
southeastern  North  Carolina 
and  unmet  medical  needs  of 
Hispanic,  Native  American  and 
African-American  minorities. 

Although  83  universities  na- 
tionwide competed  for  the 
grant,  UNCW  was  one  of  only  20 
funded. 


UNCW  is  celebrating  three  sig- 
nificant achievements  in  its 
marine  science  program:  the 
recommissioning  of  the 
Aquarius  underwater  labora- 
tory, groundbreaking  for  a  new 
Center  for  Marine  Science  Re- 
search and  federal  funding  of  a 
mariculture  research  program. 

Pouring  buckets  of  seawater 
into  an  aquarium,  Dr.  Marvin 
Moss,  UNCW  Provost;  N.C. 
Rep.  David  Redwine;  Dr.  James 
Merritt,  Center  for  Marine  Sci- 
ence Research  director;  N.C. 
Rep.  Danny  McComas;  and 
Hannah  Dawson  Gage,  UNCW 
Board  of  Trustees  chair;  sig- 
naled the  beginning  of  a  new 
era  in  marine  science  educa- 
tion and  research  with  the 
groundbreaking  of  the  $17.5 
million  CMSR  facility  at  Myrtle 
Grove  which  will  replace  the 
aging  Wrightsville  Beach  com- 
plex. Construction  should  be 
completed  by  summer  1999,  in 
time  for  the  opening  of  die  fall 
1999  semester.  Major  funding 
for  the  building  was  appropri- 
ated by  the  1995  N.C.  General 
Assembly. 

In  addition  to  the  ground- 
breaking, the  university  also 
christened  the  newest  addition 
to  its  fleet  of  research  vessels, 
the  63-foot  Cape  Fear  which 
adds  an  important  capability 
for  overnight  research  oppor- 
tunities at  sea. 

The  National  Undersea  Re- 
search Program  at  UNCW,  in 
partnership  with  NOAA,  Harris 
Corp.  and  Harbor  Branch 
Oceanographic  Institution,  re- 
furbished and  upgraded 
Aquarius,  the  world's  only  un- 


dersea research  laboratory,  to 
improve  efficiency,  safety  and 
scientific  operations.  The  new 
system,  dubbed  Aquarius  2000, 
has  a  33-foot  unmanned  navi- 
gational buoy  with  a  microwave 
communications  system  that  is 
linked  to  a  shore-based  station 
seven  miles  away.  It  will  pro- 
vide live  audio  and  video  links 
to  the  vessel  as  well  as  provide 
life  support  systems  to  re- 
searchers 60  feet  below  the  sea 
off  Key  Largo. 

Aquarius  "will  be  used  as  a  plat- 
form to  capture  the  attention 
and  imagination  of  the  public 
about  our  coastal  ocean,  with 
coral  reefs  as  a  backdrop,"  said 
Provost  Moss. 


'UNCW  is  well 
positioned  to 
make  a  great 
contribution.' 

-  U.S.  Sen.  Lauch  Faircloth 


In  October,  the  U.S.  Congress 
named  UNCW  as  the  recipient 
of  a  $150,000  grant  to  initiate  a 
major  mariculture  research  pro- 
gram on  campus.  The  program

Lanunziata 
recognized 
for  teaching 


Dr.  Louis  J.  Lanunziata  received 
the  top  recognition  for  teach- 
ing excellence  at  UNCW's  fall 
convocation. 

Aprofessor  of  curricular  studies 
in  the  Donald  R.  Watson  School 
of  Education,  Dr.  Lanunziata 
specializes  in  training  students 
to  teach  behaviorally  and  emo- 
tionally handicapped  (BEH) 
children.  He  received  one  of 
three  Distinguished  Teaching 
Professorships,  which  includes 
a  $5,000,  three-year  stipend 
and  the  UNCW  Board  of  Trust- 
eesTeaching  Excellence  Award 
for  his  significant  contribu- 
tions to  higher  education 
through  his  dedication  and 
service  to  students. 

For  Dr.  Lanunziata,  the  emo- 
tional, psychological  and  men- 
tal attitudes  of  his  students  are 
as  important  to  their  eventual 
success  as  the  skills  and  strate- 
gies he  teaches  them. 

"I  am  still  so  involved  in  my 
profession  because  I  promised 
myself  in  the  beginning  of  my 
career  to  only  permit  students 
that  I  was  sure  in  my  heart  have 
the  'effective'  skills  and  'affec- 
tive' ability  to  teach  such  chil- 
dren," he  said. 

Distinguished  Teaching  Profes- 
sorships were  also  awarded  to

to  Dr.  Ann  Lockledge,  curricu- 
lar studies;  Dr.  Kevin  Sigler, 
economics  and  finance;  Dr. 
Janet  Mason  Ellerby,  English; 
Dr.  James  K.  McGowan,  phi-

award  and  Distinguished 
Teaching  medallion. 

Dr.  William  J.  Cleary,  earth  sci- 
ences, received  the  Award  for 
Faculty  Scholarship.  He  has 
published  more  than  43  ar- 
ticles in  professional  journals 
and  is  the  editor  of  a  book  pub- 
lished in  1996.  His  high  stan- 
dards of  research  have  twice 
earned  him  the  Outstanding 
Paper  Award. 


With  $8.5  million  appropriated 
in  August  for  a  new  classroom 
building  at  UNCW,  university 
officials  are  now  working  on 
strategies  to  obtain  state  fund- 
ing for  a  new  Watson  School  of 
Education  building. 

The  classroom  building,  which 
will  be  designed  by  Boney  Ar- 
chitects, will  mirror  Morton  Hall 
on  the  north  side  of  campus. 
Dave  Girardot,  assistant  vice 
chancellor  for  business  affairs, 
estimates  the  50,000-55,000- 
square-foot  building  will  be 
ready  for  students  by  the  sum- 
mer 2000.  No  decision  has  been 
made  on  what  departments  will 
be  relocated  to  the  building. 

The  move  to  secure  a  new 
school  of  education  is  part  of 
UNCWs  strategy  to  position 
itself  asanational  leader  inpub- 


lic  school  education  reform,  an 
innovator  in  teacher  prepara- 
tion, Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze 
told  the  board  of  trustees  in 
October.  The  school,  which  has 
won  several  national  awards, 
has  a  growing  statewide  repu- 
tation and  received  glowing 
praise  from  Gov.  Jim  Hunt  at 
convocation. 

In  addition,  UNCW  was  one  of 
five  UNC-system  universities  to 
receive  a  share  of  a  $21  million 
appropriation  designed  to  over- 
come past  funding  inequities. 
Tim  Jordan,  assistant  vice 
chancellor  for  business  affairs, 
told  the  trustees  the  $2. 6million 
U NCW  received  b ri ngs  the  total 
operations  budget  to  an  all-time 
high  of  $103  million,  42  percent 
of  which  comes  from  the  state. 


Jacques  named  to  lead 
university  fund  raising 


Kevin  C.  Jacques  joined  UNCW 
as  vice  chancellor  for  univer- 
sity advancement  in  July. 

The  former  executive  director 
of  development  at  Northern 
Arizona  University,  Jacques  has 
18  years  of  development  expe- 
rience in  higher  education.  A 
native  of  Tacoma,  Wash., 
Jacques  began  his  fund-raising 
career  at  the  University  of  Puget 
Sound  and  moved  on  to  Wash- 
ington State  University  where 
as  director  of  development  he 
was  responsible  for  more  than 
$45  million  in  gifts  and  an  in- 
crease in  alumni  giving  par- 
ticipation that  was  ranked 
first  amongpublic  colleges  and 
universities. 


University  spokesperson  Mimi 
Cunningham  was  promoted  to 
assistant  vice  chancellor  for 
university  relations.  She  has 
been  with  UNCW  since  1982,  is 
chairing  the  50th  anniversary 
celebration  and  manages  a 
four-person  news  and  publica- 
tions staff. 

Donna  Cameron,  who  coordi- 
nated the  NCAA  Women's  Na- 
tional Golf  Championships  in 
1995,  has  returned  to  UNCW  as 
director  of  development,  after 
working  at  Centura  Bank  as  re- 
gional manager.  She  will  super- 
vise fund  raising  to  support  and 
enhance  academics  at  UNCW 
and  increase  the  size  of  the 
university's  endowment.

Brooks'  40-year  reign

Fall/Winter  97 


The  first  of  two  parts      The  Early  Years 


By  Joe  Browning 

The  details  are  becoming  a  little 
sketchy  now  for  William  J.  "Bill" 
Brooks.  Long  stretches  of  lonely  high- 
way. Sleepless  nights  in  isolated  ho- 
tels. Fast  food  by  the  bagful.  It's 
understandable  because,  after  all,  at 
one  time  he  served  as  athletic  director, 
chairman  of  the  physical  education 
department,  baseball  coach  and  bas- 
ketball coach  at  Wilmington  College 
and  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington. 

Brooks,  75,  and  his  wife  of  54years,  Mar- 
garet, have  better  things  to  do  these  days. 
It  takes  a  lot  of  time  to  keep  up  their 
beautiful  four-bedroom  home  on  scenic 
Everett's  Creek  on  the  outskirts  of  Wilm- 
ington. But  Brooks  doesn't  mind.  He's 
got  plenty  of  time  on  his  hands  after 
spending  40  years  on  the  job. 

"I'm  enjoying  it,"  he  said  of  the  relaxed 
lifestyle.  "I  don't  have  as  much  free  time 
as  I  thought  I  would.  I  played  a  lot  of 
golf  and  fished  the  first  three  years, 
but  that  can  get  old  after  awhile." 

It  doesn't  seem  like  that  long  ago  that 
Brooks  was  driving  the  five  miles  each 
morning  to  his  office  on  South  College 
Road.  All  told,  he  worked  out  of  four  of- 
fices in  Hinton  James  Hall,  Hanover 
Hall  and  Trask  Coliseum.  And  what  he 
did  in  those  offices  made  him  a  leg- 
endary figure  in  college  athletics. 

With  little  physical  and  financial  re- 
sources to  draw  from,  he  built  the  de- 
partment from  scratch,  nurtured  it 
through  its  infancy  and  saw  it  through 
its  metamorphosis  into  a  competitive 
four-year  institution.

Fall/Winter  97 


It  was  the  spring  of  1951,  and  Brooks 
was  enrolled  in  the  master's  program 
at  the  University  of  Miami  when  he 
made  a  telephone  call  that  changed  his 
life.  It  also  had  a  profound  effect  on 
Wilmington  College  and  its  history. 

Brooks,  who  had  taught  for  two  years 
at  Colerain  High  School  in  Bertie 
County,  contacted  Leon  Brogden  of 
the  New  Hanover  County  School  sys- 
tem about  a  newly  created  position 
that  included  working  cooperatively 
for  New  Hanover  High  School  and 
Wilmington  College. 

"I  came  through  Wilmington  on 
my  way  to  Nova  Scotia,  talked 
to  Coach  Brogden  about  the 
job,  and  started  later  in 
the  fall,"  he  recalled.  "We 
didn't  have  a  whole  lot  to 
work  with  that  first  year.  In 
fact,  on  our  first  basketball 
team  in  1951-52,  we  didn't 
have  a  single  boy  that  had 
played  regular  on  a  high 
school  team." 

Basketball,  golf  and  tennis 
were  the  original  sports  at 
Wilmington  College.  In  the 
first  five  years  or  so,  basket- 
ball was  the  primary  sport  as 
the  Seahawks  competed  in  a 
junior  college  conference 
with  several  other  schools. 

"We  had  one  boy,  Charlie 
Niven,  who  averaged  37 
points  and  led  the  nation,"  he 
said.  "He  played  professional 
football  in  Canada.  He  could 
have  played  for  anybody." 

In  1956-57,  Brooks  was  able  to 
devote  all  of  his  time  to  being 
the  college's  athletic  director, 
and  the  Seahawks  added  base- 
ball in  the  spring  of  that  year.  As 
a  result,  like  basketball,  baseball 
developed  into  a  signature  sport 
for  the  college. 

"We  went  6-8  that  first  year  and 
then  won  the  conference  cham- 
pionship in  1958,"  he  said.  It  was 

Denny  Fields 


the  beginning  of  a  dynasty  at  the  Port 
City  school. 

His  1961  baseball  team  won  the  na- 
tional junior  college  championship  in 
Grand  Junction,  Colo.,  sweeping  the 
title  in  four  straight  games,  and  the 
1962  club  followed  with  a  second 
place  finish.  In  1963,  the  Seahawks 
again  won  the  crown  in  four  straight 
outings.  Meanwhile,  the  1961  and 
1962  basketball  teams  also  reached 
the  national  playoffs. 

"We  got  to  see  a  lot  of  the  country, 
places  I've  never  seen  before  and 
places  I've  never  seen  since,"  said 
Larry  Honeycutt,  a  member  of  the  1963 
championship  team  who  re- 
tired last  year  as  the 
school's  tennis  coach 
following  a  26-year 
career. 

"We  went  to 
Grand  Junction 


through  the  southern  part  of  the  coun- 
try and  came  back  through  the  middle 
part.  We  got  to  see  a  lot  of  things  you 
wouldn't  normally  see." 

Honeycutt,  who  anchored  down 
rightfield  in  the  national  tournament, 
remembers  hopping  on  four  station 
wagons  for  the  trip  to  Colorado  and 
playing  alongside  some  of  his  previous 
adversaries  in  high  school. 

"I  was  fortunate  to  hit  the  ball  out  of 
the  stadium  two  or  three  times.  I 
wound  up  hitting  about  .700  in  tourna- 
ment and  made  the  All-Tournament 
team.  With  that  high  altitude  (Grand 
Junction,  is  about  a  mile  above  sea 
level),  I  guess  I  decided  the  easiest 
thing  to  do  was  to  hit  the  ball  out 
of  the  park  rather  than  hit  a  triple 
because  by  the  time  you  got  to 
third  base,  you'd  be  ex- 
hausted. 

"That  was  a  great  trip  with  a 
lot  of  memories.  On  our  way 
back,  we  saw  the  Minnesota 
Twins  play  Kansas  City.  A 
teammate  of  mine  in  high 
school,  Jimmy  Roland  pitched 
for  the  Twins,  and  we  saw  him 
pitch  that  night. 

"I  remember  the  athletes  well 
and  I  had  played  against  some 
of  the  players  on  that  team  and 
competed  against  Coach  Brogden 
at  New  Hanover.  I  had  won  the  state 
high  school  football  championship 
and  then  won  the  national  champion- 
ship in  baseball  here." 

Dr.  David  K.  Miller,  director  of  sum- 
mer sessions  at  UNCW,  also  played  a 
key  role  in  the  school's  early  success 
on  the  diamond.  He  was  a  member  of 
the  first  championship  team,  earning 
All-America  honors  at  shortstop  for 
the  Seahawks,  and  also  has  fond 
memories  of  those  early  days. 

"I  guess  the  thing  that  I  remember  the 
most  is  how  we  traveled,"  said  Miller. 
"We  would  travel  six  to  a  wagon,  with 
equipment  in  the  back,  all  day  and  all 
night.  The  mode  of  travel  was  really 
different  back  then." 

After  enjoying  a  solid  career  with  the 


Seahawks,  Miller  transferred  to  Wake 
Forest  and  helped  the  Demon  Deacons 
achieve  immediate  success.  In  fact, 
Miller  was  one  of  many  Seahawk  play- 
ers who  made  the  smooth  transition  to 
four-year  ball. 

Lou  Howard  became  the  top  pitcher  at 
Wake  Forest,  Bill  Haywood  went  on  to 
become  the  No.  1  hurler  for  UNC 
Chapel  Hill.  Larry  Edens  and  Wayne 
Edwards  turned  into  stars  at  Virginia 
Tech.  Others  signed  pro  contracts  after 
finishing  up  with  the  Seahawks. 

UNCW,  it  seemed,  had  developed  into 
a  feeder  school  for  the  bigger  pro- 


'I  decided  the  easiest 
thing  to  do  was  to  hit  the 
ball  out  of  the  park  rather 
than  hit  a  triple  because 
by  the  time  you  got  to  third 
base,  you'd  be  exhausted.'

Member,  1963 

Championship  Team 


grams,  producing  outstanding  stu- 
dent-athletes who  were  ready  for  the 
prime-time  pressure  those  programs 
brought.  Brooks  remembers  at  least 
seven  former  Seahawks  playing  for 
N.C.  State  one  season. 

"When  you  think  about  the  number 
of  guys  that  did  it,  I  guess  we  could 
be  called  a  feeder  school,"  Miller 
said.  "I  don't  think  that's  a  bad  thing 
to  say.  I  think  it's  a  compliment  that 
many  people  went  from  this  place 
because  it  was  a  reflection  of  the 
quality  of  the  program." 

Basketball,  too,  enjoyed  a  strong  be- 
ginning as  Brooks  piloted  the  team  for 


21  years,  compiling  a  256-228  record, 
including  four  consecutive  20-win 
seasons  from  1959-62.  But  it's  the 
1963  season  that  holds  a  special  place 
in  his  heart  as  the  Seahawks,  behind 
Indiana  native  and  tournament  most 
valuable  player  Gene  Bogash,  reached 
the  semifinals  of  the  National  Junior 
College  Basketball  Tournament  in 
Hutchinson,  Ks. 

"We  had  some  outstanding  teams 
during  our  last  five  years  of  junior  col- 
lege. Gene  had  a  half-hook  shot 
around  the  basket.  He  was  strong  as  a 
bull,  knew  how  to  rebound  and  knew 
how  to  play.  If  you  saw  him  walk  out 
on  the  court,  you  wouldn't  think  he 
looked  like  a  basketball  player." 
Bogash,  who  later  transferred 
to  Drake,  was  named  to  the 
all-time  junior  college  bas- 
ketball team  last  year. 

With  the  help  of  adminis- 
trative assistant  Mildred 
Woodward,  the  vener- 
able Brooks  put  the  pro- 
gram on  solid  footing  by 
compiling  a  staff  that 
featured  Miller,  Earl 
Allen,  Charlie  Sproles 
and  Judy  Lewis.  In  1964, 
the  school  obtained  four- 
year  status  and  joined  the 
NAIA  ranks,  seeking  a  new 
identity  in  the  process. 

The  Program  Evolves 

For  13  years,  from  1964  to  1976,  the 
Seahawks  competed  in  the  NAIA, 
working  hard  to  continue  the  standard 
of  success  established  in  the  junior 
college  days.  In  addition,  a  women's 
program  was  launched,  with  Jan 
Donohue  serving  as  the  basketball  and 
volleyball  coach. 

"It  was  tough,"  Brooks  said  of  the  tran- 
sition. "It  was  difficult  to  get  a  baseball 
schedule.  We  were  lucky  if  we  got  eight 
or  nine  home  games.  We  ended  up 
playing  teams  over  our  head." 

Baseball,  however,  fared  well  during 
that  period.  On  June  1,  1969,  three 
Seahawk  pitchers  -  Eddie  Booth,  Pete 
Eyer  and  Eddie  Atkins  -  finished 


6       UNCW  Magazine 


Fall /Winter  97 


ranked  1-2-3  in  the  nation 
in  earned  run  average.  Six 
years  later,  on  Sept.  5,  1975, 
Brooks  was  selected  "Na- 
tional Coach-of-the-Year" 
by  his  peers  after  directing 
the  Seahawks  to  a  27   11-1 
season  and  reaching  the 
NAIA  national  finals. 

When  UNCW  earned  NCAA 
Division  I  status  in  1977, 
the  program  had  ascended 
to  the  top  collegiate  level. 
By  that  time,  Mel  Gibson, 
an  assistant  coach  for 
Brooks,  had  taken  over  the 
basketball  program,  and 
Dave  Allen  was  hired  to  ini- 
tiate a  swimming  program. 
Calvin  Lane  was  directing  a 
nationally-recognized  soc- 
cer team.  Dr.  Lea  Dudley 
had  the  women's  golf  team 
tearing  up  the  links. 

"I  was  30  years  old  when  I 
got  the  head  job,  and  I  had 
no  idea  the  program  was 
going  to  grow  like  it  has," 
said  Gibson,  former  coach 
at  Baptist  College.  "When 
we  went  Division  I,  the  only 
thing  we  did  was  hang  up  a 
different  shingle." 

After  posting  a  16-10  record 
in  their  first  season  of  Divi- 
sion I  hoops,  Gibson's  early 
teams  racked  up  a  string  of 
three  consecutive  19-win 
seasons,  highlighted  by  a 
19-7  scorecard  in  1977-78. 
That  run  has  not  been 
matched  since. 

Gibson  looks  back  fondly 
on  the  players  who  made  a 
difference  in  those  critical 
years.  People  like  Denny 
Fields,  a  transfer  from  Bap- 
tist who  racked  up  30 
points  in  his  first  appear- 
ance for  the  Seahawks. 
Players  like  twins  Bobby 
and  Billy  Martin,  who  gave 
UNCW  a  talented 
backcourt  tandem.  And 
workhorses  the  likes  of 


Delaney  Jones,  Gary  Coo- 
per, Danny  Davis  and  Dave 
Wolff. 

"Those  players  were  the 
most  together  group  of  any 
I've  seen,"  said  Gibson. 
"When  practice  was  over, 
they  didn't  go  their  respec- 
tive ways.  They'd  go  to  the 
cafeteria  together.  They 
genuinely  liked  one  an- 
other. When  we  got  into 
close  games,  that  made  a 
big  difference." 

Ironically,  four  individuals 
from  those  teams  work  to- 
gether today  in  the  Mont- 
gomery County  school 
system.  Billy  Martin  is  the 
head  coach  at  East  Mont- 
gomery High  School  an,d 
Bobby  Martin  heads  up  the 
West  Montgomery  High 
School  program.  Wolff  is  the 
principal  at  Mount  Gilead 
Elementary  School,  while 
Art  Paschal  serves  as  princi- 
pal at  West  Montgomery. 

One  of  Gibson's  most 
memorable  nights  came  on 
Nov.  26,  1977,  when  the 
Seahawks  battled  nation- 
ally ranked  Wake  Forest 
before  an  overflow  crowd 
in  the  first-ever  game  at 
Trask  Coliseum. 

Gibson  said,  "The  amount 
of  noise  was  unbelievable. 
Tickets  sold  out  quickly.  We 
really  captured  the  imagina- 
tion of  a  lot  of  people  be- 
cause they  saw  we  could 
compete  with  a  team  from 
the  ACC.  You  could  feel  the 
electricity  in  the  crowd.  The 
fans  came  back,  and  atten- 
dance that  year  was  good." 

Gibson  took  the  Seahawks 
through  several  other  mile- 
stones during  his  14-year 
stint  with  the  program.  First 
NCAA  Division  I  victory. 
First  win  in  Trask  Coliseum. 
First  conference  victory. 


Scholarship  honors 
Coach  Brooks 


UNCW  pitcher/outfielder 
Jason  Roach  is  the  first 
recipient  of  an  newly 
established  athletic 
scholarship  honoring 
former  longtime  baseball 
coach  and  athletic  direc- 
tor William  J.  Brooks. 

"Many  students  and 
friends  of  the  university 
don't  realize  what  a  ma- 
jor role  Bill  Brooks 
played  in  the  develop- 
ment of  both  physical 
education  and  athletics 
at  UNCW,"  said  Percy 
Wood  '66,  chair  of  the 
Brooks  Baseball  Fund 
Committee.  Wood  joined 
former  teammates  Sandy 
Dew,  David  K.  Miller,  Ray 
Fraley,  Marshall 
Hamilton,  Jerry  Hooks, 

Barrett  Payne,  Wray  Ware  and  Doyle  Whitfield  in  initiat- 
ing the  scholarship  to  pay  tribute  to  their  mentor. 

"Hopefully,  the  Bill  Brooks  Baseball  Fund  will  serve  to 
make  everyone  more  aware  of  the  impact  Bill  Brooks 
had,"  Wood  added.  "Coach  Brooks  played  a  vital  role  in 
the  lives  of  thousands  of  student-athletes.  We  wanted 
to  honor  him  now  as  a  symbol  of  our  recognition  and 
appreciation  for  his  many  achievements. 

"Many  of  us  were  on  at  least  a  partial  athletic  scholar- 
ship, and  many,  like  myself,  would  not  have  been  able 
to  attend  the  university  without  this  support.  The  Bill 
Brooks  Baseball  Fund  will  allow  us  to  provide  financial 
assistance  to  student  athletes  as  well  as  support  other 
baseball-related  projects."

may  do  so  by  contacting  Patton  McDowell  in  the  Sea- 
hawk  Club  office  at  910-962-3571. 


Fall  I  Winter  97 


First  conference  tournament  triumph. 

Allen,  meanwhile,  arrived  in  July  of 
1977  and  was  charged  with  laying  the 
groundwork  for  a  swimming  program. 
His  first  team  consisted  of  a  total  of 
eight  people,  anchored  by  Jim  Baker, 
Denise  Squires  and  Linda  Rutton.  To- 
day, Allen  has  29  on  the  men's  team 
and  a  record  37  on  the  women's  squad. 

"We  wanted  to  establish  a  program 
that  would  be  able  to  compete  with 
schools  on  our  schedule,"  Allen  said  of 
his  early  objective.  "We  put  together  a 
dual  meet  schedule  to  help  us  get 
competitive.  When  we  got  to  that  level, 
we  looked  at  programs  that  were  much 
larger  and  more  challenging." 

Allen  also  organized  the 
Seahawk  Invitational,  a  large 
meet  at  the  end  of  February 
that  served  as  the  focal  point 
of  the  season  until  conference 
affiliation  was  gained.  The 
teams  also  joined  with  17 
other  schools  to  form  the  East- 
ern Collegiate  Swim  League, 
which  staged  a  championship 
meet  each  March. 

The  men's  soccer  program  at- 
tracted national  attention  in  1980 
when  Lane's  team  rolled  to  a  14-2 
record  and  was  ranked  third  in  the 
South  and  20th  in  the  nation.  The 
team  rallied  behind  All-South  goalie 
Charlie  Ingold  and  mainstays  Doug 
Allman,  Charlie  Walls,  Doug 
Powell,  Dave  Karlson  and 
Dennis  Davis. 

"They  were  all  good  players,"  Lane 
said.  "As  a  unit,  they  blended  well  and 
played  very  good  soccer  for  us."  The 
high  point  of  the  year  came  in  the  sea- 
son finale  when  the  Seahawks  blanked 
ACC  champion  Duke,  1-0,  on  Karlson's 
dramatic  game-winning  goal. 

Golf  developed  into  one  of  the  most 
successful  women's  programs  under 
the  tutelage  of  Dudley,  its  originator. 
The  team  captured  the  first  of  three 
ECAC  Championships  on  Sept.  27, 
1984,  in  Bayse,  Va.,  after  winning  the 
AIAW  Division  III  National  Champion- 
ship in  1982.  In  1990,  Paula  Brztowski 
became  the  school's  first  female  par- 


ticipant in  the  NCAA  Division  I 
Women's  Golf  Championships  at 
Hilton  Head,  S.C. 

Conference  Affiliation 


While  observers  inevitably  will  argue 
over  the  best  coaches  or  athletes  in  the 
school's  history,  they  almost  always 
concur  on  the  most  significant  event  - 
joining  the  highly-regarded  Colonial 
Athletic  Association.  While  no  confer- 
ence championships  will  be  decided  in 
Wilmington  this  season,  a  total  of  24

'Whatever  the  program 
was,  has  been  or  will  be 
is  owed  to  Bill  Brooks. 
Nobody  can  pay  him 
enough  respect 

-  William  Wagoner 
Chancellor  Emeritus 


held  on  campus  since  the  Seahawks 
were  accepted  into  the  highly-re- 
spected circuit. 

Becoming  a  member  of  the  CAA  didn't 
just  happen  overnight.  It  took  several 
years  of  behind-the-scenes  jockeying 
by  Brooks,  Chancellor  Emeritus  Dr. 
William  H.  Wagoner,  then-Provost 
Charles  Cahill  and  others  to  convince 
the  league's  committee  to  seriously 
consider  the  Seahawks. 

"We'd  been  approached  by  a  number 
of  conferences  and  Bill  and  I  would 
discuss  them,"  said  Dr.  Wagoner. 
"We  felt  we  should  wait  and  go  for  a 
real  quality  league.  We  found  that  in 
the  CAA." 

Chuck  Boone,  the  distinguished  ath- 
letic director  at  the  University  of  Rich- 
mond, was  a  member  of  that 
committee  and  says  the  Seahawks 


were  welcomed  with  open  arms. 

"The  lasting  impression  I  have  with 
UNCW's  first  involvement  is  Bill 
Brooks,"  said  Boone.  "I  was  impressed 
with  his  sincere  response  and  with  the 
first-class  atmosphere  down  there.  Ev- 
eryone in  our  league  felt  that  UNCW 
had  a  plan  to  be  excellent  in  athletics 
and  that  by  joining  our  conference,  it 
would  help  them  down  the  road. 

"I  recently  sent  a  letter  to  Dr.  Leutze 
and  told  him  that  UNCW  has  been  a 
great  representative  of  the  league  be- 
cause the  staff  members  have  a  lot  of 
class.  The  athletic  directors  made  a 
wonderful  choice  back  then  and  can 
only  prove  to  be  better  down  the 
road." 

"I  knew  that  in  order  to  create 
interest,  we  needed  to  get  into 
a  conference,"  said  Brooks.  "I 
met  with  Scotty  Whitelaw  of 
the  ECAC,  and  I  had  to  meet 
with  the  committee  in  Balti- 
more. We  became  a  member 
of  the  ECAC  South  in  1983-84, 
and  the  ECAC  South  later  be- 
came the  Colonial. 

"It  was  a  big  relief.  I  don't  think 
many  people  down  here  felt  like  we 
had  much  of  a  chance  of  getting  in 
with  those  established  schools.  I 
thought  it  was  probably  the  most  im- 
portant and  biggest  thing  to  happen  to 
us  in  terms  of  growth  and  putting  us 
into  a  position  where  we  could  grow." 

When  Brooks  announced  his  pending 
retirement  on  April  11,  1990,  one  of 
the  most  storied  athletic  careers  in  the 
country  drew  to  a  close. 

"Whatever  the  program  was,  has  been 
or  will  be  is  owed  to  Bill  Brooks,"  said 
Wagoner.  "Nobody  can  pay  him 
enough  respect." 


In  the  spring  1998  edition  of  UNCW 
Magazine,  Joe  Browning  explores 
the  evolution  of  the  Seahawk  sports 
program  following  the  end  of  the 
Brooks'  era  in  1990  and  its  promise 
for  the  future.

Rising  from 
adversity, 
Lloyd  '86 
teaches  others 
to  be 
successful 

Story  and  photos  by 
Marybeth  K.  Bianchi 


Her  blond  hair  and  fair  skin  distinguished  her  from  the  other 
children  at  the  school  on  the  western  Florida  Indian  reserva- 
tion where  she  was  born. 

"They  threw  pebbles  and  rocks  at  me,"  Faye  Lloyd  '86  re- 
members. When  her  family  moved  from  the  reservation  to  a 
nearby  town,  she  was  accepted  but  her  brothers  and  sisters 
were  not,  so  the  family  continued  its  journey.  By  age  13, 
Lloyd  had  attended  32  different  schools. 

"I  was  not  a  high  school  dropout,"  she  reflects.  "I  was  an  el- 
ementary school  dropout." 

Despite  the  many  struggles  she  faced,  Lloyd  never  gave  up  on 
her  attempt  to  get  an  education.  Recognized  now  as  a  gifted 
educator  in  her  own  right,  Lloyd,  51,  is  helping  children  in 
Brunswick  County  experience  success  and  continuing  her 
own  education  as  she  pursues  a  master's  in  school  adminis- 
tration at  UNCW. 

Because  her  family  life  was  troubled,  Lloyd  ended  up  in  a  foster 
home  by  the  time  she  entered  the  sixth  grade.  One  of  the  boys  in 
that  family  asked  if  she  would  go  to  Georgia  and  marry  him.  In 
return  he'd  buy  her  a  pair  of  shoes. 

"And  so  I  did.  I  had  just  turned  13.  But,  I  soon  found  out  that 
wasn't  all  he  had  on  his  mind,  and  within  a  year,  I  was  left 
alone  with  a  daughter  to  take  care  of,"  she  said. 

When  her  daughter  was  ready  for  school,  Lloyd  decided,  she 
was,  too. 

"I  didn't  know  enough.  My  vocabulary  was  extremely  lim- 


ited," she  said.  "I  had  a  lot  of  learning  to  do." 

Working  at  night  and  going  to  school  with  her  daughter  during 
the  day,  Lloyd  said  the  first-grade  teacher  took  such  an  interest  in 
her,  "she  never  lost  contact  with  me.  She  kept  encouraging  me." 

Still  it  wasn't  a  smooth  journey  for  the  young  mother.  At  one 
school,  the  principal,  looking  down  from  the  top  of  the  steps 
at  the  entrance  told  her  to  go  away.  "Trash  like  you  don't  be- 
long here  around  these  children,"  she  remembers  him  saying. 
"I  would  just  love  to  see  his  face  now." 

When  she  was  16,  after  attending  night  classes  for  about  six 
months,  Lloyd  took  the  GED,  passing  with  the  highest  score 
in  the  class.  Unfortunately,  she  wasn't  eligible  for  the  certifi- 
cate until  she  turned  18  -  two  years  away. 

Faced  with  that  fact  and  the  realization  that  she  knew 
enough  to  get  a  job,  Lloyd  concentrated  on  making  a  better 
life  for  her  two  children  with  her  husband,  Ronnie,  to  whom 
she  has  now  been  married  24  years. 

"When  I  was  35, 1  decided  I  would  go  back  and  get  my  GED,  and  I

50th  open  house 
builds  on  UNCW, 
community  ties 

By  Nadya  Labib 

Recognition  of  the  close  ties  UNCW  has 
to  our  local  community  is  an  ongoing 
theme  of  the  50lh  anniversary  celebration. 

The  Cape  Fear  Museum  has  installed  a 
"Spotlight  on  UNCW"  exhibit  that  illus- 
trates this  central  principle.  The  exhibit 
contains  artifacts  and  memorabilia 
ranging  from  sports  uniforms  to  year- 
books and  will  run  through  the  end  of 
January  1998,  at  which  time  it  will  be 
moved  to  the  UNCW  campus  and  dis- 
played through  June. 

On  March  29,  1998,  the  university  will 
host  an  open  house.  Mark  your  calen- 
dar now  -  you  won't  want  to  miss  this 
campus-wide  celebration!  This  event 
will  welcome  old  friends  back  to  cam- 
pus and  create  new  ones  as  members 
of  our  community  tour  facilities,  enjoy 
special  performances  and  meet  the 
students  and  educators  who  contrib- 
ute to  the  vitality  of  UNCW. 

Another  community-related  activity 
underway  at  UNCW  is  the  50,h  Toys  for 
Tots  Christmas  present  campaign. 
Toys  for  Tots,  initiated  by  the  U.  S. 
Marine  Corps,  began  its  charitable 
work  in  1947,  and  many  of  the  service 
men  and  women  who  attended  Wilm- 
ington College  were  involved. 

Finally,  the  Golden  Alumni  Tour  is 
reaching  out  to  alumni  who  live  out- 
side the  Wilmington  area.  Tour  stops 
coming  up  in  1998  include  Richmond, 
Va.,  on  February  26,  Greensboro  on 
April  18  and  Raleigh  on  May  30.  The 
alumni  website  at  www.uncwil.edu/ 
alumni  has  up-to-date  information 
about  the  tour,  or  you  may  call  800-596-

Gifts  from  many  alumni, 
parents  and  friends  estab- 
lished new  records  in  fis- 
cal year  1996-97,  with  gifts 
and  new  pledges  totaling 
$2,882,950.  This  includes 
more  than  $2.5  million  in 
outright  gifts  of  cash,  se- 
curities, property  and 
equipment.  This  brings 
the  Charting  the  Currents 
of  Change  Campaign, 
planned  in  conjunction  with  UNCW's 
golden  anniversary,  to  a  total  of 
nearly  $20  million  toward  its  $25  mil- 
lion goal. 

The  majority  of  contributions  received 
during  the  campaign  have  been  desig- 
nated for  student  scholarships  and  sup- 
port of  U  NCW's  academic  colleges, 
schools  and  departments.  Significant 
support  has  also  been  designated  to  the 
university's  Loyalty  Fund,  to  the  Alumni 
Association's  renovation  of  Wilmington's 
historic  Wise  House  and  to  the  Seahawk 
Club's  support  of  athletics.  Sixty  percent 
of  gifts  have  been  received  from  alumni, 
friends,  parents  and  faculty-staff,  includ- 
ing record  new  participation  in  alumni 


giving.  Corporate  and 
foundation  giving,  in- 
cluding matching  gift 
programs,  has  also  made  a 
significant  impact  on  cam- 
pus needs. 

The  university's  endow- 
ment and  other  funds  un- 
der management, 
including  life  income 
gifts  that  provide  a  finan- 
cial return  to  donors,  also 
established  record  highs,  reaching  a 
market  value  of  $14  million  by  June  30, 
1996.  This  includes  $1,665,926  in  new 
gifts  toward  endowment  in  1996-97. 

UNCW's  50"'  anniversary  observance 
will  continue  to  be  celebrated 
throughout  the  1997-98  year.  We  in- 
vite every  member  and  friend  of  the 
university  community  to  become  gen- 
erously involved  in  making  a  differ- 
ence toward  UNCW's  next  fifty  years.

On  behalf  of  the  university 
community,  I  am  grateful 
for  every  donor  whose 
name  appears  in  this  annual 
report.  The  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington  has  made 
tremendous  strides  in  its 
enrollment  and  quality  in  recent 
years.  And,  thanks  to  you,  our 
future  is  even  brighter.  Our  quality 
students,  talented  faculty  and 
staff,  and  generous  alumni  and 
friends  make  our  50lh  anniversary  a 
special  time  to  count  many 

accomp- 
lishments 
and 
blessings. 

Since  its 
founding 
in  1947,  the 
university 
has  earned 
national 
recogni- 
tion as  a 
premier  undergraduate  institution, 
as  a  world  leader  in  marine  science 
education  and  research,  and  as  a 
leader  in  the  use  of  new  teaching 
and  learning  technologies.  The 
difference  we  are  making  can  be 
measured  in  the  positive  impact  to 
our  region's  thriving  economy,  in 
sustaining  the  quality  of  North 
Carolina's  unique  environment 
and  waterways,  and  in  educational 
outreach  to  teachers,  students  and 
communities  across  the  state. 

Each  of  our  donors  has  made  a 
difference  in  their  support  of  the 
Loyalty  Fund  and  the  scholarships, 
facilities  and  distinguished 
professorships  that  their  gifts  have 
made  possible.  Thankyou  for  being 
a  special  part  of  our  legacy. 

With  all  best  wishes,

WAYS  YOU  CAN  SUPPORT  UNCW 


All  gifts  to  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington  and  its 
foundation  are  tax-deductible  to  the  full  extent  allowed  by  law. 
Gifts  may  be  designated  for  a  specific  use  or  left  unrestricted  to 
be  used  where  the  need  is  greatest. 
Cash  Gifts 

The  simplest  and  most  frequently  used  method  of  giving  is  by 
personal  check,  made  payable  to  the  UNCW  Foundation  or  di- 
rectly to  UNCW. 

Securities 

Stock,  bonds,  certificates  of  deposit  and  other  appreciated 
assets  can  provide  significant  tax  savings  for  the  donor  while 
having  a  major  impact  on  the  life  of  the  university.  If  you  are 
considering  a  gift  through  this  manner,  please  call  the  ad- 
vancement office  at  910-962-3170  for  instructions  on  how  to 
transfer  this  gift. 

Property  Gifts 

Many  donors  contribute  their  personal  residences,  land,  com- 
mercial or  other  property  to  the  UNCW  Foundation.  Personal 
property,  including  art,  books,  furnishings  and  special  collec- 
tions, are  also  accepted  through  the  campus  collection.  In  most 
cases,  these  gifts  are  recorded  at  their  fair  market  value  as 
determined  by  an  appraisal. 

Honorary  and  Memorial  Gifts 

A  gift  to  honor  or  memorialize  a  family  member,  friend  or  teacher 
is  a  very  significant  way  to  recognize  others.  The  university  sends 
a  note  to  the  family  stating  that  a  gift  has  been  made  in  this 
manner. 

Matching  Gifts 

Many  companies  match  gifts  made  by  their  employees  to  higher 
education.  If  your  company  matches  gifts,  please  include  the 
appropriate  matching  gift  form  with  your  gift.  The  university  will 
complete  the  necessary  information  and  return  it  to  your  human 
resources  office  to  generate  the  matching  gift. 

Life  Insurance 

There  are  two  ways  to  donate  life  insurance  policies.  The  first  is  by 
making  the  UNCW  Foundation  the  owner  and  beneficiary  of  the 
policy,  which  may  provide  an  immediate  or  ongoing  income  tax 
deduction.  The  second  way  is  by  naming  the  UNCW  Foundation  the 
beneficiary  of  a  current  policy. 

Planned  Gifts  and  Life  Income  Plans 

The  UNCW  Foundation  orthe  university  may  be  named  as  beneficiary 
in  your  will  or  trust.  Life  income  plans  such  as  charitable  gift 
annuities  and  unitrusts  may  provide  attractive  options  to  the  donor 
in  the  form  of  current  income,  tax  wise  benefits  and  estate 
planning,  while  providing  for  a  future  gift.  The  donor  transfers 
assets  such  as  cash,  securities  or  property  to  the  foundation  or  to 
the  university.  In  exchange,  the  donor  or  designated  beneficiary 
receives  specified  income  benefits  for  life  or  a  fixed  term  of  years. 
Donors  are  encouraged  to  consult  their  financirl  advisers  when 
considering  a  planned  gift. 

Pledges 

Major  gifts  may  be  pledged  and  completed  over  a  period  of  time. 
Pledges  for  annual  gifts  are  due  by  June  30  each  year. 
Please  Call  on  Us  for  Help 

The  university  advancement  staff  is  available  to  consult  with  you 
or  your  advisors  to  discuss  gift  plans  that  can  make  a  difference 
for  you  and  for  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington. 
For  information  or  assistance  please  call  910-962-3170.

In  Memory 
Frank  Hawkins  Kenan 

August  3,  1912  -  June  4,  1996 

The  University  of  North  Carolina  lost  a  Long- 
time friend  and  benefactor  with  the  passing 
of  Frank  H.  Kenan.  A  distinguished  man  from 
a  noble  Tar  Heel  family,  Kenan  continued  his 
family's  tradition  of  more  than  six 
generations  of  unselfish  service  and  visionary 
leadership.  In  his  generosity,  he  never  forgot 
his  roots  in  southeastern  North  Carolina.  Gifts 
from  the  Kenan  family  provided  UNCW  with 
endowment  funds,  Kenan  Auditorium,  Kenan 
House  and  Wise  Alumni  House.  Indeed,  the 
Kenan  family's  philanthropic  attention  to 
American  higher  education,  to  the  University 
of  North  Carolina,  and  to  UNCW  specifically, 
is  unparalleled. 

Cited  by  former  UNC  President  William  C. 
Friday  as  "one  of  the  most  public-spirited 
people"  in  the  history  of  North  Carolina, 
Frank  H.  Kenan  was  also  a  model  of 
entrepreneurial  success.  As  president, 
chairman  or  chief  executive  officer  of  Kenan 
Oil  Company,  Kenan  Transport  Company,  j 
Flagler  and  West  Palm  Beach  Water,  he] 
demonstrated  far-sighted  business  acumen. 
As  chairman  of  the  William  R.  Kenan,  Jr.  Fund] 
and  director  and  trustee  of  numerous 
foundations  and  charitable  trusts,  his] 
leadership  focused  on  creative  giving,] 
designed  to  tap  the  best  efforts  of  the 
recipient  while  meeting  needs  that  no  one, 
else  had  yet  recognized.

NEW  GIFT 
CONCEPT  HELPS 
STUDENTS  NOW 
AND  LATER 

UNCW  has  helped  a  national  insurance  company 
develop  a  special  gift  concept  which  allows  do- 
nors to  simultaneously  make  both  a  current  and 
a  deferred  gift  to  the  university.  This  program  is 
being  introduced  during  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington's  50th  anniversary  year 
and  encourages  deferred  gifts  of  $50,000  to  en- 
dow merit  scholarships  here  at  UNCW. 

Based  on  a  donor's  age  and  using  a  five-year 
pledge,  it  is  possible  for  UNCW  to  receive 


gifts  which  have  current  income  and  can  also 
provide  future  income  in  the  amount  of 
$50,000,  or  more.  A  donor  makes  a  gift  to 
UNCW  and  agrees  for  the  university  to  pur- 
chase a  life  insurance  policy  in  his/her  name. 
The  policy  would  be  owned  by  UNCW  which 
would  also  be  the  beneficiary.  The  donor  sim- 
ply agrees  to  make  a  tax-deductible  annual 
gift  for  five  years.  Approximately  10  percent 
of  the  gift  goes  to  UNCW  for  current  needs 
without  reducing  the  deferred  gift,  thereby 
securing  a  future  endowed  scholarship. 

One  of  the  greatest  challenges  currently  fac- 
ing UNCW  is  the  need  to  increase  the  number 
of  merit  scholarships  which  will  allow  the 
campus  to  seek  out  and  attract  the  strongest 
academic  students  possible.  Over  the  past 
few  years  UNCW  has  consistently  moved  up 
in  the  UNC  rankings  of  average  SAT  scores 


for  incoming  freshmen.  This  fall  SAT  average 
is  1084  which  places  us  fourth  from  the  top 
among  the  16  campus  system. 

Endowed  merit  scholarships  are  critical  to 
our  academic  future,  and  gifts  administered 
through  this  50th  anniversary  program  can 
help  insure  a  bright  future  for  both  the 
school  and  our  students.  Donors  who  create 
endowed  scholarships  have  the  option  of 
naming  them  in  honor  or  in  memory  of  indi- 
viduals of  their  choice. 

For  more  information  about  this  and  other 
deferred  gift  and  naming  opportunities, 
please  contact  the  advancement  office  at 
(910)  962-3170  or  write  to  the  UNCW  Ad- 
vancement Office,  601  S.  College  Road, 
Wilmington,  N.C.  28403.  A  brochure  can  be 
mailed  showing  ages  and  gift  amounts  need 
to  create  an  endowed  scholarship.

did,"  she  said. 

She  went  on  to  graduate  with  honors 
from  Coastal  Carolina  College  and  en- 
rolled at  the  University  of  North  Caro- 
lina at  Wilmington,  where  she  graduated 
summa  cum  laude  in  1986. 

Watson  School  of  Education  faculty  took 
Lloyd  under  their  wings.  "They  became 
my  second  family, "said  Lloyd.  Because 
she  had  never  really  been  exposed  to  the 
structured  environment  of  the  classroom, 
Lloyd  said,  "Suddenly  coming  to  a  huge 
university  was  tough.  They  just  held  me  in 
the  palms  of  their  hands  and  let  me  grow. 
They  challenged  me,  and  still  do." 

The  faculty  encouraged  her  to  get  her 
master's  degree  which  she  expects  to  earn 
by  May  1998. 

"They  see  in  me  a  leader,  but  I  would 
rather  stay  in  the  classroom, "  Lloyd  said. 

Described  by  her  peers  as  a  "teacher  of 
teachers,"  Lloyd  made  her  mark  at 
Southport  Elementary  School  in  Brun- 
swick County  for  10  years,  creating  en- 
thusiasm and  an  excitement  for  learning 
among  her  students.  Now  at  the  year- 
round  Belville  Elementary  School  near 
Leland,  Lloyd  is  continuing  a  tradition 
of  nurturing  her  students  and  working 
closely  with  their  parents. 

"I  found  that  student  success  correlates 
strongly  with  parent  involvement,  and  1 


absolutely  insist  on  my  parents  being 
involved,"  she  said.  "I  go  to  their 
homes,  to  their  workplaces,  prisons, 
wherever  the  fathers  and  mothers  are." 

Honored  in  1995  with  the  first  UNCW 
Watson  School  of  Education  Alumni 
Achievement  Award,  Lloyd  looks  for  in- 
novative ways  to  engage  her  students. 

Her  combination  third/fourth  grade 
classroom  is  structured  as  a  "mini  soci- 
ety." Each  student  has  a  role  to  play 
and  responsibilities  to  fulfill.  There's 
the  mayor,  judge,  deputy  sheriff,  nurse 
assistant,  veterinarian,  newspapereditor 
and  librarian. 

"They  govern  themselves.  They  came  up 
with  the  rules  and  consequences  they 
could  live  with,"  Lloyd  explained.  They 
monitor  each  other's  behavior  and 
make  sure  things  run  smoothly  in  the 
classroom.  As  a  result,  Lloyd  has  few 
discipline  problems. 

Cetting  the  children  interested  in 
learning  by  involving  them  directly  in 
the  process  is  key  to  Lloyd's  success  in 
the  classroom. 

"I  listen  to  them,"  Lloyd  said.  "It's  their 
ideas.  They  are  really  involved  in  their 
learning.  They  know  where  they  need 
to  go.  I'm  a  good  guide. 

"I  never  design  my  classroom  until  they 
get  here.  Then  I  find  out  what  kind  of 
children  I  have  and  what  their  interests 
are,"  Lloyd  said.  When  the  school  year 


started,  the  students  set  up  the  various 
learning  centers  around  the  classroom. 

This  year  weather  is  a  key  theme  in 
their  learning  experience.  The  outdoor 
weather  station  was  constructed  from 
the  students'  design. 

"They  drew  it.  We  built  it,"  said  Lloyd 
who  paid  for  the  project  out  of  her  own 
pocket.  "When  the  interest  is  there,  I 
need  to  do  it.  If  I  had  a  year  I  could  get 
a  grant,  but  then  the  interest  might  not 
be  there.  They  have  ownership  in  it." 

Each  day  the  students  chart  wind  direc- 
tion, temperature,  barometric  pressure, 
make  weather  forecasts  and  learn  a  lot 
of  math  and  science  in  the  process.  A 
garden  planted  near  the  station  provides 
additional  lessons,  and  students  learned 
firsthand  the  effects  of  erosion  when  a 
downspout  broke  during  a  rainstorm 
and  washed  away  some  of  their  plants. 

Lloyd  does  very  little  lecturing  in  class. 
Ideas  for  lessons  come  from  the  chil- 
dren themselves  and  are  a  combination 
of  the  state-mandated  curriculum  and 
their  own  interests.  Freed  from  tradi- 
tional teaching  methods,  Lloyd  is  able 
to  work  closely  with  individual  stu- 
dents, observing  their  learning  styles 
and  finding  ways  to  enhance  them. 

Lloyd's  teaching  methods  may  be  uncon- 
ventional, but  the  results  are  proven. 
Year  after  year,  her  students  achieve  high 
test  scores.

Cathy  Gilbert  and  Chris  Ray  '95  were  among  the  UNCW  alumni  who  came  out  for 
the  first  stop  on  the  Golden  Alumni  Tour  at  Ericsson  Stadium  in  Charlotte  to  learn 
about  the  university's  history  and  where  it's  headed  in  the  next  50  years. 


Alumni  take  anniversary  tour

speakers  and  updates  on  the  university.  There  is  a  charge,  and 
reservations  are  required  for  each  event. 


Alumni  provide  career  network  for  undergraduates 


By  Thorn  Rakes  &  Karen  Thompson 

During  the  summer  of  1996,  parks  and 
recreation  major  Shannon  Pennington 
was  busy  developing  a  network  of  con- 
tacts to  complete  her  required  fall  semes- 
ter internship  in  therapeutic  recreation 
and  natural  resource  management. 

After  reviewing  a  list  of  internship  sites 
in  the  office  of  Vickie  Parker,  a  lecturer 
in  HPER,  Shannon  set  out  to  find  the 
perfect  location. 

Shannon  knew  she  wanted  to  eventu- 
ally work  full  time  in  the  Triangle  area, 
and  her  internship  in  therapeutic  rec- 
reation was  to  be  with  an  organization 
that  served  psychiatric  patients.  With 
this  combination,  UNCW  alumni  were 
waiting  in  the  wings  to  meet  her  needs. 

Into  the  picture  entered  Rom  Alphin 
'83  and  Allen  Guy  '85,  both  UNCW 
alumni  who  are  certified  therapeutic 
recreational  specialists  at  Dorothea 
Dix  Psychiatric  Hospital  in  Raleigh. 

As  a  student,  Rom  thought  business 


administration  was  his  ticket  to  suc- 
cess, but  his  mind  was  changed  one  day 
by  an  experience  he  says  he  will  never 
forget.  A  sophomore  from  Verona,  N.C., 
Rom  wandered  through  Hanover  Hall 
during  the  annual  Special  Olympics. 

The  children  looked  like  they  were  hav- 
ing so  much  fun,  so  Rom  thought  he 
would  just  jump  in  and  help.  As  he 
talked  with  the  children,  one  meek  and 
mild  little  fellow  standing  in  line 
seemed  to  need  attention.  Rom  asked 
him  what  he  liked  to  do,  and  the  child 
responded,  "I  like  to  sing  like  Elvis 
Presley."  With  this  comment,  the  boy 
broke  out  into  a  loud,  enthusiastic  ren- 
dition of  "You  Ain't  Nothin'  but  a 
Hound  Dog." 

At  that  moment,  Rom  decided  to  make 
his  life's  work  helping  special  children 
like  that.  After  changing  his  major  to 
parks  and  recreation  administration, 
many  Special  Olympics,  internships 
and  significant  work  experiences 
through  Camp  Easter,  Rom  went  to 
Dorothea  Dix  Hospital  where  he  now 
works  with  individuals  in  their  transi- 


tion from  patient  to  active  citizen. 

Allen,  originally  from  Fayetteville. 
settled  on  parks  and  recreation,  with 
an  emphasis  in  therapeutic  recreation 
after  transferring  to  UNCW  from  an- 
other university.  Like  his  father,  who 
was  a  vocational  rehabilitation  coun- 
selor, Allen  wanted  a  career  in  which 
he  could  be  directly  involved  in  a  sig- 
nificant way  with  the  improvement  of 
others'  lives.  Following  his  own  intern- 
ship experience,  Allen  was  one  of 
those  fortunate  graduates  who  had  an 
offer  prior  to  graduation  and  a  job 
waiting  in  a  private  psychiatric  hospi- 
tal before  joining  the  staff  at  Dorothea 
Dix  as  a  certified  therapeutic  recre- 
ation specialist. 

In  Shannon's  internship,  Allen  super- 
vised her  training  with  inpatient  ser- 
vices. The  work  initially  involved 
shadowing  a  therapist,  then  assisting  a 
TR  specialist  and  finally  assuming  re- 
sponsibility with  their  supervisor  for 
group  sessions.  Although  the  sessions

Wise  Alumni  House  loan  retired, 
association  focuses  on  furnishings 


Retiring  the  $400,000  Wise  Alumni  House 
renovation  loan  in  June,  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association  is  now  focusing  its  attention  on 
acquiring  period  furnishings  and  other 
items  to  decorate  the  house. 

While  some  have  been  donated,  others  are 
being  purchased  with  contributions  not 


needed  to  repay  the  debt  and  additional 
monies  contributed  by  generous  individu- 
als and  businesses  including  BB&T,  Mary 
Wiley  and  Tabitha  McEachern  . 

A  handcarved  antique  oak  organ  was  do- 
nated by  Elizabeth  Parker  Dawson  in  honor 
of  the  Bullock  family.  The  organ  has  been 
placed  under  the  stair- 
case in  the  foyer,  at  the 
same  location  Jessie 
Kenan  Wise  had  her 
player  piano. 


Associate  Vice  Chancellor  Tyrone  Rowell  presents  a  symbolic  check  to  Jerry 
Wilkins  of  United  Carolina  Bank,  signifying  the  repayment  of  the  alumni 
association's  Wise  House  renovation  loan. 


10  students  awarded 
$1,500  scholarships 

Perhaps  the  best  outreach  done  by  the 
alumni  association  each  year  is  to  award  10 
scholarships  to  deserving  UNCW  students.

The  Career  Access  Pathways

current  or  recent  UNCW  stu- 
dents with  alumni,  parents  of 
students  or  other  friends  of 
the  university  to  develop  a 
network  for  career- related  in- 
formation and  employment 
opportunities. 

CAPS  assist  students  with 
contacts  for  career  path  infor- 
mation, work  shadowing,  in- 
ternships and  full-time 
employment.  Alumni  may  be 
invited  to  speak  to  students 
about  their  own  career  paths 
or  just  answer  questions 
about  what  it's  like  to  live  in  a 
certain  city.

resent you  and  our  alumni  asso-

a  profitable  affinity  card  agree- 
ment with  First  USA  which  will 
assist  our  association,  alumni  and

for  your  mailing  in  early  January 
of  your  new  official  UNCWcredit 
card.  The  card  designs  will  rep- 
resent UNCW  well. 

I  have  the  privilege  of  leading  our 
association  during  this  golden 
anniversary  year.  We  have  so 
much  to  offer  each  other  and  the 
university  as  well  with  our  "50 
Years  of  Excellence."  I  encourage 
you  to  join  me  and  your  fellow 


alumni  as  we

planned  for  us.  Blizzard '83,  '97 
You  have  many 

golden  opportunities  to  get  in-

Please  help  me  involve  our  alumni 
more  to  ensure  the  future  growth 
of  our  association  and  UNCW.  I 
invite  you  to  let  me  know  your 
wants  and  needs  so  that  our  asso-

In  May  1988,  at  the  invitation  of  Chancellor  William  H. 
Wagoner,  13  membersoftheUNCWfacultywhohadtaught 
in  the  Isaac  Bear  Building  between  1947  and  1961  met  to 
discuss  the  formation  of  an  honorary  organization  to  com- 
memorate Wilmington  College. 

It  was  decided  at  that  time  to  form  the  Order  of  Isaac  Bear. 

The  Isaac  Bear  Building  was  part  of  the  New  Hanover 
High  School  complex  located  at  13th  and  Market  streets. 
The  building  was  donated  by  the  Bear  family  to  New 
Hanover  County  Schools  and  originally  served  as  an  el- 
ementary school.  The  Wilmington  College  students  and 
faculty  enjoyed  many  happy  times  at  the  Bear  Building 
before  relocating  to  the  new  campus  in  1961. 

The  Order  of  Isaac  Bear  adopted  as  its  purpose  the  rec- 
ognition of  "those  who  have  demonstrated  loyalty  to 
UNCW,  contributed  to  the  academic  quality  of  the  uni- 
versity or  had  a  significant  role  in  uniting  the  institu- 
tion and  the  community." 

Charter  members  are  Louis  H.  Adcock,  Mary  Dixon  Bel- 
lamy, Water  C.  Biggs,  William  J.  Brooks,  Thomas  P.  Brown, 
Joanne  K.  Corbett,  J.  Marshall  Crews,  Calvin  Lee  Doss, 
Thomas  R.  Lupton,  Dorothy  P.  Marshall,  Duncan  P. 
Randall,  Gerald  S.  Rosselot,  Doug  W.  Swink  and,  as  an 
honorary  member,  William  H.  Wagoner. 

Associate  members  are  Emsley  Laney,  the  only  living 
member  and  chairman  of  the  New  Hanover  County  Board 
of  Education  under  which  Wilmington  College  was 


founded;  Fred  Graham  and  B.  D.  Schwartz,  who  served  as 
members  of  the  board  of  trustees  of  Wilmington  College 
or  UNCW.  Deceased  associate  members  are  Raiford  Trask 
and  J.  Fred  Rippy  who  also  served  as  trustees. 

The  membership  of  the  Order  of  Isaac  Bear  has  grown  to  in- 
clude Frank  Allen,  WaLser  Allen,  Jack  Dermid,  Carol  Ellis,  Isabell 
Foushee,  Claude  Howell  and  Adrian  Hurst  (both  deceased), 
David  Miller ,  Rolla  Nelson,  James  Parnell,  Elizabeth  A.  Pearsall, 
Daniel  B.  Plyler,  Gerald  Shinn  and  David  E.  Warner. 

A  scholarship  was  established  by  the  order  and  is  avail- 
able to  a  qualified  junior,  senior  or  graduate  student  who 
is  a  descendent  of  a  full-time  Wilmington  College  student 
who  attended  or  a  full-time  faculty  member  who  taught 
between  September  1947  and  June  1969.  The  1996  recipi- 
ent was  Jeremy  Allen,  grandson  of  Frank  Allen,  retired  pro- 
fessor of  biology.  The  1997  recipient  is  Laura  Nelson, 
granddaughter  of  Rolla  Nelson,  retired  professor  of  physics. 

The  Order  of  Isaac  Bear  established  a  collection  of  Wilm- 
ington College  memorabilia  which  is  housed  in  Randall 
Library.  Doug  Swink  is  chairman  of  the  collection. 

In  discussing  the  order  with  Joanne  Corbett,  Dr.  Wag- 
oner said,  "Most  universities  have  honorary  organiza- 
tions. We  now  have  one  named  the  Order  of  Isaac  Bear. 
It  is  an  organization  of  remembrance   of  where  we  came 
from,  and  its  aim  is  to  protect  our  history  and  our  tradi- 
tions and  to  honor  those  who  have  served  the  university 
with  loyalty  and  dedication."

on  August  7,  1997,  and  current

ber 13,  1997. 

In  the  summer  of  1963  Mrs. 
Schwartz  and  Edith  Kallman  orga- 
nized the  Friends  of  Wilmington  Col- 
lege and  undertook  the  expansion 
of  Randall  Library  as  their  initial 
project.  Their  contributions  helped 
add  enough  volumes  and  periodicals 
for  initial  accreditation  by  the 
Southern  Association  in  1968. 

She  and  her  husband,  B.  D. 
Schwartz,  who  was  instrumental  in 
the  founding  of  Wilmington  College 
as  a  member  of  the  first  board  of 
trustees,  supported  the  institution 
in  numerous  ways  throughout  its 
growth  and  development  over  the 
last  50  years.  In  1992  they  estab- 
lished the  Sylvia  and  B.D.  Schwartz 
Graduate  Fellowship  with  a  gift  of 
$25,000  to  UNCW. 

Mrs.  Morris  was  a  member  of  the 
Friends  for  many  years.  Her  first 
term  on  the  board  of  directors  be- 
gan in  1981,  and  from  1985-87  she 
was  treasurer.  After  a  seven-year 
hiatus,  she  returned  as  vice  presi- 
dent in  1995  and  was  named  presi- 
dent earlier  this  year. 

Each  year,  the  Friends  raise  approxi- 
mately $10,000,  most  of  which  is 
returned  to  campus,  funding  a  vari- 
ety of  projects  and  needs.  Funds 
will  be  established  in  memory  of  the 
two  deceased  members.

Class  of  1998  leaves  mark  on  campus 


UNCW's  Class  of  1998  is  leav- 
ing its  permanent  mark  on 
campus.  Seniors  are  purchas- 
ing bricks  engraved  with  their 
names  which  will  be  laid  in 
front  of  Randall  Library,  sur- 
rounding an  eight-foot  bronze 
casting  of  the  UNCW  seal. 

Tom    Gale,    senior    class 

president,      hopes      this 

project  will  begin  a  new  tra- 

at  the  university.  He 


said  it  would  be  nice  if  each 
graduating  class  following 
would  continue  the  tradi- 
tion and  that  only  seniors 
were  allowed  to  walk  across 
the  new  seal. 

With  a  $75  contribution,  se- 
niors get  their  names  en- 
graved in  a  brick,  special 
senior  T-shirts  and  their 
names  listed  in  a  donor 
book  which  will  be  placed  in 


the  library.  For  $25,  seniors 
get  their  names  listed  in  the 
donor  book  and  receive  the 
T-shirt,  and  for  $5  their 
names  will  be  listed  in  the 
donor  book. 

All  money  raised  will  fund 
the  project;  any  excess  will 
benefit  either  the  Class  of

nior Week  in  the  spring.

UNCW  continuing  its  lead  in  distance  learning 


Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  was 
N.C.  Gov.  Jim  Hunt'sdesignated 
representative  from  the  UNC 
system  to  discuss  distance  learn- 
ing opportunities  during  a  trip 
to  the  Far  East  in  January. 

Traveling  in  Thailand,  Japan 
and  Indonesia,  Chancellor 
Leutze  heard  one  recurring 
message  from  leaders  in  gov- 
ernment, business  and  educa- 
tion -  they  want  access  to 
American  higher  education  via 
distance  learning  technologies, 
and  they  want  it  now. 

UNC  Wilmington  is  willing  to 
provide  the  leadership  to  make 
it  happen. 


Leutze's  trip  began  in  Thailand 
wherehe  participated  in  a  Kenan 
Institute  Asia  (KlAsia)  Board  of 
Directors  meeting  in  Bangkok. 
OnereasonforLeutze'sappoint- 
mentto  this  board  was  his  three- 
part  UNC-TV  "Globe-Watch" 
television  documentary  which 
focused  on  Thailand,  as  well  as 
his  continuing  interest  in  the 
institute's  program. 

Another  topic  of  discussion  was 
how  North  Carolina  could  as- 
sist the  government  of  Thailand 
in  providing  scholarships  to  al- 
low its  brightest  students  to 
study  in  the  United  States.  In 
addition  to  opportunities  in  dis- 


Athletics  gearing  up 
for  facilities  fund  drive 


UNCW's  Athletics  is  gearing  up 
to  raise  funds  by  the  year  2000  for 
a  variety  of  projects  including  a 
facelift  of  facilities  to  keep  pace 
with  Colonial  Athletic  Associa- 
tion standards,  to  enhance  fan 
support  and  to  increase  recruit- 
ing appeal  in  all  varsity  sports.

UNCW  has  initiated  an  educa-

produce  shows  to  air  6  a.m  to

community  and  our  alumni  and 
fans  everywhere,"  said  Seahawk 
Club  Executive  Director  Patton 
McDowell,  who  is  coordinating 
the  fund-raising  effort. 

Most  of  the  money  raised  -  with 
an  anticipated  goal  of  several 
million  dollars  -  will  be  used 
renovate  UNCW's  athletic  facili- 
ties including  Trask  Coliseum, 
Greene  Track  and  Field  and  the 
softball,  soccer  and  baseball 
complexes. 

Other  funds  will  go  to  the  ath- 
letic endowment  for  scholar- 
ships. The  university  currently 
awards  nearly  $1  million  in  ath- 
letic scholarships  per  year, 
funded  by  a  combination  of  en- 
dowment income,  annual  gifts 
and  revenues.  The  athletic  en- 
dowment is  just  under  $400,000, 
making  it  the  smallest  in  the  CAA. 

Over  the  past  year,  the  Seahawk 
Club  surpassed  its  own 
$400,000  fund-raisinggoal,  col- 
lecting an  additional  $160,000 
and  membership  is  up  from  530 
to  884  members.

In  Japan,  Leutze  met  leaders  of 
the  Digital  Communities 
Project,  a  program  to  develop 
the  community  of  the  21st  cen- 
tury. Eleven  Japanese  prefec- 
tures, orstates,  formed  this  effort 
to  find  ways  to  use  modern  tech- 
nology to  develop  their  total  in- 
formation delivery  system, 
incorporatingeducation,  medi- 


cine and  legal  and  government 
operations. 

"The  Japanese  view  the  United 
States  as  being  very  far  ahead  of 

them  in  the  use  of  distance 
learning  and  digital  communi- 
cation and  they  want  to  learn 
from  the  U.S.  what  we  can  do 
and  how  we  do  it,"  said  Leutze. 

The  chancellor  is  enthusiastic 
about  the  possibilities  of  inter- 
national distance  learning.  This 
trip  convinced  him  that  there 
are  governments  and  people 
who  are  willing  to  invest  a  lot  of 
money  to  make  this  technology 
work,  and  UNCW  is  willing  to 
help.

At  CROSSROADS 
students  learn 
to  make  'right' 
choice 

By  Katie  Noonan  '97 

It  was  a  hot  summer  night  on  July 
26,  1996  when  Joe*  (not  his  real 
name)  and  his  friend  were  engaging 
in  the  typical  college  student  event: 
bar  hopping  at  the  local  clubs. 

Drinking  and  driving  was  not  the  only 
risk  they  were  taking.  While  partying, 
they  were  leaving  the  bars  to  get 
"jacked"  on  cocaine  in  Joe's  car.  As 
they  got  out  of  the  car  to  resume 
drinking  they  didn't  notice  a  bike  pa- 
trol officer  nearby.  That's  when  Joe's 
friend  began  to  vomit  from  ingesting 
the  cocaine. 

This  grabbed  the  attention  of  the  po- 
liceman, and  he  came  over  to  investi- 
gate. "Have  you  eaten  any  drugs 
tonight?"  the  officer  asked.  "No  sir," 
responded  the  friend.  The  officer  then 
asked  to  search  the  car,  and  Joe  non- 
chalantly consented,  thinking  he  could 
fool  him  by  acting  as  though  he  had 
nothing  to  hide;  but  boy,  did  he. 

The  officer  found  an  "eight  ball,"  that 
is  three  and  a  half  grams  of  cocaine, 
and  it  was  in  a  rather  obvious  place, 
the  change  holder.  Backup  and  the  K-9 
were  called  in,  and  off  to  jail  Joe  and 
his  friend  went. 

Joe  was  ordered  to  do  community  ser- 


vice, and  since  he  would  be  attending 
UNCW  in  the  fall  he  opted  to  serve  on 
campus.  This  is  where  he  found  CROSS- 
ROADS, the  campus  Substance  Abuse 
Prevention  and  Education  Program. 

"CROSSROADS  helped  me,  and  I  help 
CROSSROADS,"  Joe  stated.  When 
asked  how  he  began  doing  drugs,  he 
explained  that  marijuana  and  cocaine 
were  plentiful  among  his  friends:  "Cu- 


riosity got  me  because  it  was  always 
there  and  it  was  free.  All  my  friends 
would  do  it,  and  I  knew  how  much  fun 
they  had."  So  he  jumped  on  the  band- 
wagon, became  addicted  to  both  mari- 
juana and  cocaine  and  was  arrested. 

The  CROSSROADS  program  began  at 
UNCW  under  a  different  name  in  the 
mid-eighties,  and  through  the  years 
the  name  has  changed.  With  an  infu-

sion  of  federal  funding  in  the  late  '80s 
and  early  '90s,  the  program  was  publi- 
cized more  on  campus  and  resources 
expanded.  As  a  result,  more  students 
took  the  initiative  to  ask  questions  or 
seek  help  for  themselves  or  a  friend.  A 
year  ago  Sam  (Suzanne)  Shover  joined 
the  program  team  with  new  ideas,  and 
with  that  came  a  new  name,  CROSS- 
ROADS. 

As  the  director  of  CROSSROADS, 
Shover  reformulated  the  program  pre- 
viously known  as  Alternatives!  Her 
philosophy  is  based  on  counseling  and 
treatment  for  students  faced  with 
today's  challenging  decisions. 

The  name  CROSSROADS  represents 
the  processes  involved  when  coming 
to  a  crossroad:  you  must  stop,  con- 
sider the  consequences  and  make  a 
decision.  The  program  is  to  help  stu- 
dents learn  to  think  about  the  conse- 
quences of  their  actions  and  hopefully 
make  the  right  choice. 

There  are  different  procedures  that 
CROSSROADS  takes  to  educate  and 
help  students  to  make  decisions.  There 
are  the  educational  materials,  which 
consist  of  brochures,  videotapes,  a  re- 
source library  and  staff  to  answer  any 
questions.  UNCW's  Housing  and  Resi- 
dence Life  incorporates  CROSSROADS 
into  its  evening  resident  meetings 
where  Shover  and  students  who  work 
with  her  speak  to  the  residents  about 
what  the  program  has  to  offer. 

Freshmen  are  faced  with  whole  new 
experiences  moving  away  from  home 
and  being  on  their  own.  With  that 
comes  the  stress  of  finding  their  place 
with  friends  and  peers  and  doing  well 
academically.  This  is  where  many 
freshmen  choose  the  wrong  road. 
Shover  has  been  asked  to  speak  to 
many  of  the  freshmen  seminar  classes 
of  various  academic  departments  in 
the  hope  of  helping  students  make  de- 
cisions and  to  show  CROSSROADS  as 
an  answer  for  help. 

Many  times  students  go  to  CROSS- 
ROADS because  they  know  someone 
who  has  a  problem  with  drugs,  alcohol 
or  tobacco,  and  they  want  to  help  them. 
Shover  shows  them  ways  to  help  their 


friend  or  family  member  recognize 
signs  and  symptoms  of  their  abuse. 

Shover  said,  "If  that  person  realizes 
they  have  a  problem,  we're  available, 
but  you  can't  fix  a  person  and  make 
them  stop.  They  have  to  want  to  stop." 

When  students  come  to  CROSSROADS 
and  Shover  finds  their  problem,  such 
as  coping  with  someone  close  who  has 
an  addiction,  she  offers  the  help  of  the 
Counseling  Center. 

Dee  Casey  is  one  of  the  counselors  at 
the  center  who  does  voluntary  assess- 
ments and  intervention.  "I  see  many 
students  who  voluntarily  come  in 
seeking  help  with  their  own  problems 
with  drugs  or  alcohol,  but  also  stu- 
dents come  in  because  of  stress  or  de- 
pression and  many  times  substance 
abuse  is  the  underlying  problem."  The 
largest  number  of  students  Casey  deals 
with  are  those  who  are  affected  by 
other's  problems,  usually  primary  rela- 
tionships, friends,  family,  a  significant 
other,  a  roommate. 

If  students  are  caught  on  campus  with 
alcohol  or  drugs,  the  dean  and  or  the 
assistant  dean  of  students  is  called  to 
investigate.  Dean  of  Students  Terry 
Curran  says,  "There  are  two  ways  we 
interact  with  CROSSROADS:  judicial 
referrals  and  student  concern." 

Depending  on  the  severity  in  a  judicial 
referral,  students  are  sent  to  CROSS- 
ROADS' Challenging  Decisions  (CD) 
classes.  Students  who  violate  UNCW's 
alcohol  policy  must  attend  the  class 
which  focuses  on  alcohol  abuse  and 
drugs  in  general.  If  they  are  caught 
with  marijuana,  they  must  attend  both 
the  CD  class  and  the  Challenging  De- 
cisions on  Marijuana.  If  a  stu- 
dent is  found  with  any  other 
type  of  drug  considered  more 
dangerous,  the  student  may  be 
suspended. 

"Many  times  parents  are  con- 
cerned with  how  their  son  or 
daughter  is  doing  so  we  have  the 
student  in  to  find  out  what  is  go- 
ing on  with  them,"  states  Dean 
Curran.  Often  it  is  when  the  dean  or 
assistant  dean  meets  with  the  student 
that  they  realize  there  is  a  problem 


with  drugs  or  alcohol  due  to  an  un- 
derlying stress,  such  as  family, 
school,  friends  or  a  significant  other. 
From  there  they  refer  the  student  to 
CROSSROADS  where  Shover  helps 
them  find  healthier  outlets  for  relief. 
If  Shover  feels  that  the  student's 
stress  is  more  serious  then  she  refers 
him/her  to  the  Counseling  Center. 

Dean  Curran  comments  on  the 
CROSSROADS  program,  "My  impres- 
sion over  the  last  18  months  about 
the  program  is  that  it  has  a  very  posi- 
tive impact.  They  have  a  real  dialogue 
with  the  students.  Relevant,  resource- 
ful, solid  information."  Assistant 
Dean  Leah  Payne  states,  "If  we're  not 
seeing  the  students  again,  then  it's 
successful." 

Both  Shover  and  Casey  commend  the 
administrative  involvement  at 
UNCW.  "We  are  very  fortunate  to 
have  the  support  we  do  from  the  ad- 
ministration, I'm  real  impressed," 
said  Shover.  Casey  added,  "We  have 
more  support  than  other  UNC  univer- 
sities, and  it  shows  that  our  adminis- 
tration is  committed  to  helping 
students." 

Both  also  work  with  some  faculty  to 
recognize  when  students  have  a  prob- 
lem, "so  we  don't  lose  people  through 
the  cracks,"  replies  Casey. 

Even  though  his  community  service 
has  been  long  completed,  Joe  contin- 
ues to  work  at  CROSSROADS.  While  he 
doesn't  want  a  career  in  the  field,  he 
says,  "I  will  always  be  involved  in  it." 

An  intern  in  the  UNCW  University 
Relations  Office,  Katie  Noonan  has  a 
bachelor's  degree  in  communications  studies.

From  Brooks'  foundation, 
athletics  flourish 

Second  of  two  parts  by  Joe  Browning 


When  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington 

SEARCHED  FOR  A  SUCCESSOR  TO  WlLLIAM  J.  "Bill."  BROOKS  IN 
1990,  IT  SOUGHT  SOMEONE  WITH  A  FUND-RAISING  BACKGROUND 
AND  THE  EXPERIENCE  TO  LEAD  THE  PROGRAM  INTO  A  CRUCIAL 
PERIOD.  A  SEARCH  COMMITTEE  RECOMMENDED  PAUL  A.  MlLLER, 
A  32-YEAR  VETERAN  OF  COLLEGIATE  ATHLETICS,  TO  LEAD  THE  WAY. 

"On  my  arrival,  I  found  a  great  foundation,"  Miller  said.  "The 
facilities  were  in  place  for  most  of  the  sports,  the  attitudes 
were  good  and  we  were  doing  quite  well  for  being  a  relatively 
young  Division  I  program.  If  you  look  at  the  early  years,  it  was 
a  bold  move  because  we  were  not  on  the  same  level  financially 
as  the  schools  we  competed  with.  Someone  had  great  fore- 
sight because  now  it's  tough  to  get  into  any  conference." 

The  1990's  have  been  marked  by  an  escalation  in  the  school's 
athletic  fortunes.  The  men's  basketball  team  has  come  within 
an  eyelash  of  earning  an  NCAA  berth  four  times.  Athletes  have 
qualified  for  national  championships.  And  fund  raising  has 
been  stepped  up. 

The  university  also  hosted  its  first  NCAA  Championship  in 
1995  when  the  NCAA  Women's  Golf  Championship  was  staged 
at  Landfall's  Pete  Dye  Course. 

One  of  Miller's  top  accomplishments  came  on  Nov.  21,  1996, 
when  UNCW  received  notification  from  the  NCAA  the  athletic 
program  had  been  certified,  confirming  that  the  school  was  in 
full  conformity  with  the  operating  principles  of  NCAA  Divi- 
sion I  membership. 

He  also  is  proud  of  his  track  record  with  scholarship  money, 
which  details  a  dramatic  increase  from  $400,000  to  $900,000 
in  his  seven  years. 

"We  did  not  try  to  upgrade  the  facilities  at  great  costs  and  at 
the  expense  of  scholarships,"  he  said.  "We've  been  deter- 
mined to  give  our  coaches  more  to  work  with,  and  I'm  pleased 
with  that.  We've  also  upgraded  the  baseball  field  and  added 
lights  to  our  soccer  stadium." 

Evidence  of  UNCW's  resurgence  in  athletics  showed  in  1996- 
97  when  the  track  and  field  team  captured  the  school's  first 
CAA  title,  the  men's  basketball  team  shared  the  regular  season 
championship  and  three  coaches  -Allen  (women's  swimming 
and  diving),  Jerry  Wainwright  (men's  basketball)  and  Jim 
Sprecher  (men's  track  and  field),  were  acknowledged  by  their 
peers  as  "Coach  of  the  Year"  in  the  CAA. 

"I  certainly  was  delighted  that  the  men's  track  team  won  the

conference  championship  last  year,"  said  Dr.  James  R.  Leutze, 
the  university's  chancellor  since  1990.  "I'm  not  as  hung  up  on 
conference  championships  though.  I  want  us  to  be  competitive. 
When  we  go  on  the  court  or  go  on  the  field,  I  want  our  young  men 
or  young  women  to  know  that  they  have  a  chance  to  win." 

Success  Stories 

Close  to  50  years  of  athletic  competition  will  produce  many 
great  student-athletes,  and  UNCW's  program  is  no  exception. 
While  it's  difficult  to  single  out  specific  cases,  certain  players 
come  to  mind  as  excellent  products  of  the  system. 

Take  Carl  Willis,  for  example.  After  growing  up  in  the  sprawling 
tobacco  fields  of  rural  North  Carolina,  the  Yanceyville  native 
was  an  outstanding  pitcher  for  the  Seahawks  in  the  early  1980's 
who  earned  a  World  Series  ring  with  the  Minnesota  Twins  in 
1991.  He  is  currently  a  minor  league  pitching  instructor  for  the 
Cleveland  Indians  organization. 

"When  I  was  at  UNCW,  we  were  able  to  compete  against  top- 
notch  competition,  and  that  made  you  better,"  said  Willis.  "My 
time  at  UNCW  was  one  of  the  most  enjoyable  times  in  my  life." 

Former  swimming  standout  Sam  O'Leary,  a  member  of  Coach 
Dave  Allen's  first  recruiting  class,  also  ranks  as  an  exemplary 
student-athlete. 

"When  you  cut  through  everything,  Sam  was  a  real  tough 
competitor,"  said  Allen.  "Sam  was  not  afraid  to  get  up  and  race 
people.  When  he  came  in  as  a  freshman,  he  wanted  to  qualify 
for  the  NCAA's." 

And  qualify  he  did.  O'Leary  not  only  made  times  to  compete  in 
the  1982  NCAA's  at  the  Eastern  Championships,  he  copped 
All-America  honors  by  finishing  I lth  nationallv  in  the  100- 
yard  Butterfly. 

"Coach  Allen  has  been  a  rock  of  Gibraltar,"  said  O'Leary, 
recreation  manager  at  nearby  Camp  Lejeune  in  Jacksonville. 
"He's  a  real  leader  and  shows  great  sportsmanship  in  swim- 
ming and  everyday  life.  He  was  like  a  second  father  to  us.  I  took 
away  his  work  ethic  and  his  great  insight  into  becoming  adults 
and  being  a  part  of  the  community." 

All-time  basketball  great  Brian  Rowsom  also  arrived  quietly 
on  the  UNCW  campus  and  left  with  a  bushel  of  honors.  He 
attended  tiny  Columbia  (N.C.)  High  School  in  the  northeast 
corner  of  the  state  and  didn't  appear  to  have  a  future  in 
basketball  until  he  caught  the  eye  of  Mel  Gibson  who  was  the 
men's  coach  from  1972  to  1986. 

"We  saw  Brian  as  a  junior  because  we  were  looking  at  another 
player,"  Gibson  recalled.  "He  only  weighed  about  180  pounds,  but

Hall  of  fame  to 
recognize  key 
players 

The  UNC  Wilmington  Athletic  Hall 
of  Fame  will  have  its  charter  induc- 
tion on  Saturday,  May  9.  Up  to  five 
individuals  will  make  up  the  first 
class  of  inductees. 

"It's  only  fitting  that  we  honor 
those  who  have  contributed  to  the 
success  of  the  program  through  the 
years.  This  will  heLp  us  recognize 
key  contributors  to  the  program 
and  buiLd  on  the  tradition  they 
started,"  said  Paul  A.  Miller,  direc- 
tor of  athletics. 

Candidates  must  have  made  outstand- 
ing contributions  during  their  associa- 
tion with  UNCW.  Student-athletes 
must  have  left  the  university  as  a 
graduate.  Teacher-coaches  or  adminis- 
trators must  have  held  that  position 
for  at  least  five  years.  Special  consid- 
eration will  be  given  for  significant 
contributions  to  society  through  com- 
munity activities  and  performance  in 
chosen  fields  that  bring  credit  and 
distinction  to  the  university. 

The  11-person  selection  committee 
includes  the  athletic  director,  di- 
rector of  alumni  relations,  sports 
information  director,  senior 
women's  administrator,  director  of 
the  Seahawk  Club,  director  of  mi- 
nority affairs,  a  faculty  representa- 
tive, a  member  of  the  Seahawk 
Club's  development  committee,  the 
special  assistant  to  the  chancellor 
and  two  at-large  representatives. 

Inductees  will  be  honored  at  a  spe- 
cial ceremony  and  be  recognized  at 
UNCW's  baseball  game  that  day 
against  Western  Carolina.  Special 
plaques  commemorating  their  induc- 
will  be  displayed  at  a  location  to

we  went  with  him  early  and  knew  he  was 
going  to  be  a  player." 

Rowsom,  a  member  of  the  Charlotte  Hor- 
nets' original  team,  still  holds  the  school's 
scoring  and  rebounding  records  with  1 ,974 
points  and  1,015  rebounds.  He  remains 
the  only  non-Hoosier  in  the  history  of  the 
Indiana  Classic  to  earn  tournament  most 
valuable  player  honors. 

Key  Contributors 

Establishing  an  athletic  program  not 
only  took  personnel,  it  took  resources. 
And  several  individuals  paved  the  way 
with  their  time,  talents  and  treasure. 
The  embodiment  of  those  benefactors 
was  Raiford  G.  Trask,  Jr.,  an  ultra-suc- 
cessful farmer  who  went  out  of  his  way 
to  assist  Brooks. 

"Raiford  helped  us  with  a  lot  of  things," 
Brooks  emphasized,  especially  with  con- 
struction of  the  baseball  facility.  "When 
we  moved  to  South  College  Road,  the 
college  had  three  buildings,  and  the 
maintenance  shack  wasn't  much  bigger 
than  my  garage.  About  the  only  thing 
they  had  in  there  was  a  half-dozen  shov- 
els and  a  half-dozen  hoes. 

"  He  was  very  interested  in  our  school.  With- 
out his  help,  it  might  not  have  been  done." 

Brooks  also  said  then-Reigel  Paper  Com- 
pany, now  International  Paper,  contrib- 
uted bulldozers  and  graders  to  the  cause. 
When  Brooks  approached  Burt  Voight, 
head  of  the  company's  Woodlands  divi- 
sion, he  was  more  than  willing  to  help. 
Gene  Dew  of  Dew  Oil  Company,  mean- 
while, sent  his  trucks  over  each  morning 
to  fuel  the  big  earth  movers. 

"The  field  was  a  cypress  swamp.  We 
just  kept  plugging  along,  and  I  was 
able  to  borrow  some  surveying  equip- 
ment. I  had  worked  with  an  engineer- 
ing company  and  knew  enough  to  set 
my  grade  stakes.  We  saved  a  lot  of 
money  that  way." 

The  Future 

Miller  believes  the  future  is  bright  for 
the  Seahawks  because  the  school  con- 
tinues to  emerge.  At  the  same  time,  how- 
ever,  that  growth  often  generates 
problems. 

"We've  got  to  get  into  a  true  tiering  situ- 


ation," he  said.  "There's  no  way  we  can 
fund  19  sports  at  a  level  where  we  can 
expect  to  have  championships  in  every 
sport.  As  in  academics,  you're  known 
for  certain  things.  We  need  to  single  out 
some  programs  and  hang  our  badge  on 
them.  We  have  to  pick  about  three  men's 
and  three  women's  sports  and  try  to  fund 
them  at  a  level  where  they  at  least  have  a 
chance  to  compete  for  a  championship." 

To  do  that,  Miller  says,  the  Seahawks 
need  stronger  backing.  With  a  relatively 
young  alumni  base,  the  program  faces 
an  uphill  battle. 

"There  are  two  areas  we  need  to  concen- 
trate on.  First  of  all,  we  have  to  do  a 
much  better  job  in  fund  raising.  Sec- 
ondly, we  have  to  sell  more  tickets.  These 
two  areas  will  increase  our  budget." 

Dr.  Leutze  succeeded  Dr.  William  H. 
Wagoner  seven  years  ago  and  has  been 
proactive  in  athletics.  A  former  football 
player  at  Syracuse,  he  takes  an  active 
role  in  the  direction  of  the  program. 

"I  am  very  supportive  ofthe  athletic  pro- 
gram because  I  believe  it  is  a  balanced 
program.  It  keeps  very  clearly,  in  per- 
spective, the  role  of  athletics  and  the 
student-athlete  concept,"  Dr.  Leutze 
said.  "I'm  proud  of  our  student-athlete 
graduation  rate.  I'm  proud  of  the  fact 
that  our  athletes  stay  on  campus  and  go 
on  to  graduate  school  and  stay  as  assis- 
tant coaches.  I  think  we  have  a  healthy 
approach  to  athletics." 

What  does  the  future  hold  for  the  ath- 
letic program? 

"If  our  projections  are  right,  the  univer- 
sity is  going  to  grow  about  3,500  stu- 
dents in  the  next  five  to  seven  years,"  Dr. 
Leutze  said.  "That  will  make  a  lot  of  dif- 
ference in  our  athletic  programs.  There 
may  be  some  changes  in  our  sports 
lineup,  but  I'm  not  looking  for  football. 
Football  is  so  expensive  and  requires  a 
tremendous  infrastructure  that  I  can't 
see  us  making  that  investment. 

"What  I  would  like  to  see  is  for  us  to 
develop  several  sports  in  which  we  are 
regular  contenders  for  the  top  spot,  and 
we  are  regularly  sending  athletes  to  the 
NCAA's."

Spring/Summer  1998 


Seahawks  soar 
to  new  heights 


By  Phillip  Brown 

The  Seahawk  men's  basketball  program  soared  to  new 
heights  this  season  culminating  in  a  first-ever  post-season 
berth  in  the  Chase  National  Invitational  Tournament. 

A  season  that  began  with  a  loss  to  Clemson  University  of  the 
Atlantic  Coast  Conference  would  rise  to  historic  propor- 
tions. The  Seahawks  would  win  20  games  for  the  first  time 
in  the  47-year  history  of  the  program.  This  was  indeed  a 
record-setting  season. 

In  addition  to  a  20-win  season,  the  Seahawks  were  unde- 
feated on  their  home  court.  Trask  Coliseum,  winning  nine 
games.  A  tenacious  defense  enabled  the  team  to  hold  eight 
home  opponents  to  63  points  or  less.  The  Seahawks  have 
used  the  friendly  confines  of  Trask  Coliseum  to  build  the 
12th  longest  home  winning  streak  in  NCAA  Division  I  bas- 
ketball. Spanning  from  last  season,  the  Seahawks  have  won 
16  straight  home  contests.  Awesome  home  play  did  not  go 
unnoticed  to  Seahawk  fans,  who  helped  establish  a  new 
record  for  average  attendance  at  4,739.  On  their  way  to  20 
wins,  the  Seahawks  enjoyed  a  record  nine-game  consecu- 
tive win  streak. 

Thirteen  of  the  20  wins  came  in  Colonial  Athletic  Associa- 
tion play.  Can  you  say  school  record?  The  successful  league 
play  earned  the  Seahawks  a  share  of  the  regular  season  con- 
ference title,  reducing  the  sting  of  a  preseason  CAA  coaches' 
poll  that  picked  the  Seahawks  to  finish  fifth  in  the  confer- 
ence. 

Head  Coach  Jerry  Wainwright  has  set  a  new  standard  for 
the  Seahawk  men's  basketball  program.  In  his  fourth  year, 
Wainwright's  teams  have  amassed  45  CAA  victories.  His 
predecessors  Kevin  Eastman  and  Robert  McPherson  won 
29  and  34,  respectively,  during  their  four-year  tenures  as 
the  Seahawks  head  coach.  Wainwright  was  runner-up  for 
the  CAA  Coach  of  the  Year:  the  same  award  he  won  for  the 
1996-97  season. 

While  the  team  excelled,  outstanding  individual  perfor- 
mances were  instrumental  in  the  team's  success.  Senior 
guard  Mark  Byington  of  Salem,  Va.,  became  the  12th  player 
in  UNCW  history  to  score  1,000  points.  He  reached  the  mile- 
stone February  14  against  William  and  Mary.  Having  ap- 
peared in  1 13  games  during  four  years,  his  1,070  points 
makes  him  UNCW's  ninth  all-time  leading  scorer. 

One  reason  for  Byington's  scoring  success  was  his  blazing 
three-point  goals.  After  making  a  pair  of  three-pointers 
against  Coastal  Carolina  University  on  Dec.  22,  Byington 
passed  Brannon  Lancaster  (1988-91)  to  become  UNCW's 
all-time  leading  three-point  shooter.  At  season's  end 


UNCWjunior  Billy  Donlon,  center,  battles  for  the  basketball  with  Wake  Forest 
freshman  Nikki  Arinze,  left,  in  the  Seahawks'  first-round  NIT  basketball  game 
with  the  Deacons  in  Winston-Salem  March  12.  UNCW's  Oleg  Kojenets,  right, 
gives  a  helping  hand.  The  Seahawks  lost  to  the  Deacons,  56-52. 

Byington  had  completed  241  of  640  three-point  attempts 
during  his  four  years.  For  his  career  that  translates  to  a 
37-  percent  success  rate.  But  during  the  1997-98  season 
Byington  was  flying  high  from  behind  the  arc.  Seventy 
percent  of  his  field  goals  were  three-point  shots. 
Byington  wasn't  alone  this  season  with  hitting  trifectas. 
Teammates  Stan  Simmons  and  Billy  Donlon,  both  jun- 
iors, moved  to  fourth  and  sixth,  respectively,  on  the  list. 
Simmons  has  hit  124  of  his  317  attempts,  and  Donlon 
connected  for  78  of  214. 

Simmons  also  made  a  strong  showing  during  the  CAA  tour- 
nament in  Richmond.  A  product  of  Winder,  Ga.,  Stan  "Sling- 
shot" Simmons  was  named  to  the  CAA's  all-tournament 
team  after  scoring  56  points  and  collecting  nine  rebounds  in 
three  games  at  Richmond  Coliseum.  Simmons  was  also 
named  a  member  of  the  first-team  AU-CAA.  Teammate  Mark 
Byington  was  selected  for  the  CAA  All-Conference  second 
team  and  the  All-Defensive  and  All-Academic  squads. 

Following  the  loss  in  the  finals  of  the  CAA  tournament  to 
the  University  of  Richmond,  the  Seahawks  and  their  sup- 
porters waited  anxiously  for  news  of  post-season  play.  The 
team's  reward  for  its  record-setting  season  was  an  NIT  bid 
and  first-round  game  against  the  ACC's  Wake  Forest  Uni- 
versity. While  the  team  suffered  a  disappointing  56-52  loss, 
expectations  are  already  high  for  next  season  with  the 
Seahawks'  returning  11  players.

Student  leaders  return  to  campus

The  Division  of  Student  Affairs  is  look- 
ing forward  to  hosting  former  student 
leaders  and  student  affairs  staff  mem- 
bers at  the  Student  Leader  Reunion 
May  29-31.  This  first-time  event  will 
commemorate  UNCW's  50th  Anniver- 
sary by  honoring  the  students  who 
helped  create  the  diverse  assortment 
of  out-of-class  learning  opportunities 
that  UNCW  students  enjoy  today. 

The  weekend 
will  kick  off  on 
Friday  afternoon 
with  time  to  visit 
familiar  class- 
rooms and  other 
buildings,  as  the 
first  session  of 
summer  school 
will  be  under- 
way. A  Patio 
Party  with  pizza 
and  beverages 
will  be  held  that  evening  in  the  court- 
yard behind  Schwartz  Residence  Hall. 
Saturday's  events  begin  with  an  offi- 
cial welcome,  followed  by  information 
sessions  on  UNCW  student  life  today, 
as  recounted  by  current  students,  and 
an  overview  of  the  Division  of  Student 
Affairs  by  Vice  Chancellor  Pat  Leonard. 


Saturday's  lunch  will  include  an  out- 
line of  UNCW's  plans  for  the  future, 
followed  by  dessert  receptions 
hosted  by  student  clubs  and  organi- 
zations and  current  student  affairs 
staff.  Saturday  evening's  event  is  a 
salute  to  the  student  leaders  of  the 
past  five  decades  and  a  nostalgic 
look  back  at  life  on  the  UNCW  cam- 
pus. The  weekend  concludes  with 
Sunday  brunch  at  Wagoner  Hall.

May  commencement 
is  capstone  event 

UNCW's  1998  May  Commencement 
will  be  the  capstone  event  of  the 
university's  50th  anniversary  cel- 
ebration. 

Three  ceremonial  items  will  pre- 
miere at  this  landmark  event  Satur- 
day, May  16:  Chancellor  James  R. 
Leutze  will  wear  a  newly  designed 
UNCW  chancellor's  robe,  the 
schools  and  college  will  march  into 
Trask  Coliseum  with  processional 
banners,  and  the  graduating  class 
will  wear  special  stoles  featuring  the 
50th  anniversary  logo. 

In  concluding  its  golden  anniversary 
year,  the  university  celebrates  its  past 
and  looks  to  its  future  -  to  the  next  50 
years  and  beyond.  The  commence- 
ment program  and  speaker  will  em- 
body this  vision. 

Commencement  activities  will  begin  at 
8  a.m.  with  breakfast  for  graduates  and 
their  guests  on  the  lawn  between  Al- 
derman, Hoggard  and  James  halls 
sponsored  by  the  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation. The  10  a.m.  ceremony  will  be 
followed  by  departmental  receptions.

Road  from  Wilmington  College 
leads  to  county  government 


By  Susan  Carney  '97 

Wilmington  native,  Robert  "Bobby"  Greer  '66,  was  not  quite 
sure  where  the  road  might  lead  him  when  he  headed  off  to 
Wilmington  College,  now  the  University  of  North  Carolina 
at  Wilmington.  At  the  time,  the  school  was  mostly  a  campus 
of  woods  with  iust  three  buildings  on  it. 

"My  classmates  from  New  Hanover  High  School  scattered  in 
many  different  directions,  but  a  group  of  us  stayed  here  to 
attend  the  local  college."  Greer's  1966  graduating  class  was 
the  second  baccalaureate,  four-year  degree  class  after  the 
campus  moved  to  its  present  location  on  College  Road. 

"The  class  was  so  small  that  we  all  knew  each  other  and  re- 
mained friends  for  a  long  time,"  he  said.  "During  our  days  at 
(Wilmington  College)  my  friends  and  I  were  busy  in  our  ef- 
forts to  bring  fraternity  life  to  the  campus  including  the  one 
I  joined,  Sigma  Phi  Kappa. 

"I  registered  for  pre-engineering  classes  and  then  changed 
to  business  management  on  the  advice  of  my  fellow  life- 
guard buddies,"  he  said.  "The  thought  of  entering  politics 
never  entered  my  mind. 

"Additionally,  I  have  always  loved  the  water  and  boating  so  I 
enjoyed  being  the  head  lifeguard  at  Wrightsville  Beach  also 
during  that  time.  Later,  it  led  me  to  become  an  active  and 
reservist  member  of  the  Coast  Guard,"  he  said. 

Greer's  degree  in  business  management  became  an  asset  to 
him  in  1966  when  he  joined  Sellers  and  Greer,  a  tire  and 
auto  parts/service  company  founded  by  his  father,  the  late 
Gardner  D.  Greer.  The  original  business  was  on  North  Third 
Street  with  a  branch  at  2015  Oleander  Drive.  Greer  was 
president  from  1973  until  April  1997  when  the  company  was 
sold.  It  is  now  known  as  Palmetto  Tire  Service. 

It  was  only  after  Jack  Dolan  died  in  1988,  leaving  a  vacant 
position  on  the  New  Hanover  County  Board  of  Commis- 
sioners, that  Albert  Corbett  '65  of  Corbett  Package  Company 
was  able  to  persuade  Greer  to  accept  a  nomination  for  an 
appointment  to  fill  the  seat. 

"I  knew  Bobby  from  the  time  we  were  teenagers,"  said 
Corbett.  "We  were  not  only  classmates  but  also  pioneers  to- 
gether with  faculty  and  community  supporters  of  the  newly 
relocated  Wilmington  College  which  was  renamed  Univer- 
sity of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington  in  1969.  Our  college 
days  together  were  an  important  time  in  our  lives." 

Corbett  explained  that  in  the  early  days,  students  and  the 
university  felt  an  especially  strong  mutual  bond.  Students 
expected  to  obtain  the  best  education  from  the  most  quali- 
fied professors,  and  in  turn  the  college  looked  to  them  to  go

out  after  graduation  and  become  successful  leaders  in  the 
community,  a  benefit  to  the  school  as  a  result. 

"At  the  time,  recruiting  faculty,  especially  in  the  business 
school,  was  not  as  easy  as  it  is  today.  We  were  most  fortu- 
nate to  gain  insights  from  the  dean  of  the  business  school  at 
the  time,  Dr.  E.  M.  West,  who  was  a  retired  Sears  executive. 
The  valuable  training  he  gave  us  was  backed  by  years  of  ac- 
tual business  experience,"  said  Corbett. 

"UNCW  definitely  helped  mold  Greer's  character  into  the 
community  leader,  businessman,  husband,  father  and  all- 
round  good  guy  he  is  today,"  Corbett  said.  "He  enjoys  the 
respect  of  his  peers,  whether  Republican  or  Democrat,  black 
or  white.  I  have  never  heard  anyone  have  disparaging  words 
to  say  about  him. 

"From  experiences  I  shared  with  Greer  over  the  years,  I 
know  him  to  be  an  honest  individual  who  deals  well  with

Wise  House  gets  facelift 


After  years  of  neglect,  the  exterior  of 
Wise  Alumni  House  is  getting  a  much 
deserved  facelift. 

Since  December  work  crews  have 
been  busy  making  repairs.  Damaged 
slate  shingles  on  the  roof  have  been 
replaced.  The  wood  siding  has  been 
scraped  and  is  being  repainted  a 
bright  white.  Unfortunately,  the  work 
revealed  extensive  damage  to  the 
port  cochere,  and  the  columns  are 
being  replaced.  Also,  some  scroll 
capitals  on  the  large  columns  at  the 
front  of  the  house  are  being  rebuilt. 

Inside  Wise  House,  a  high  quality 
sound  system  has  been  installed.  It 
will  include  interior  and  exterior 
speakers  which  are  located  in  the 
front  yard  and  sunken  garden  areas. 

Chandeliers  have  been  hung  in  the 
grand  room  and  the  wall  sconces, 
previously  the  only  source  of  lighting 
in  the  room,  have  been  moved  so 
they  are  in  the  center  of  each  wall. 
All  lighting  fixtures  which  were  just 
exposed  bulbs,  such  as  those  in  the 


public  restrooms,  have  been  re- 
placed. New  lights  and  mirrors  were 
installed  in  the  upstairs  bathrooms. 

In  the  kitchen,  the  stained  carpet 
has  been  replaced  with  tile  floor- 
ing, which  complements  the  en- 
closed sunporch. 

New  window  treatments  will  accent 
the  hand-painted  hunt  scene  wallpa- 
per in  the  dining  room.  In  the  grand 
room,  plantation  shutters  will  be  in- 
stalled and  draperies  moved  there 
from  Miss  Jessie's  upstairs  bedroom. 


Because  of  extensive  damage  to  the  port  cochere, 
the  columns  must  be  replaced.

When  you're  on  the  road  this  spring, 
keep  your  eye  out  for  the  newest  look 
in  North  Carolina  license  plates  -  the 
UNCW  Seahawk. 

The  promotional  effort  by  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  to  get  the  colle- 
giate license  plates  on  the  road  during 
the  university's  50th  anniversary  has 
paid  off. 

"We  are  indebted  to  those  faithful 
alumni  and  friends  who  supported  the 
program  in  its  early  stages  and  to 
those  who  helped  us  get  over  the  top 
these  last  few  months,"  said  Patricia 
Corcoran  '72,  alumni  relations  direc- 
tor. A  minimum  of  300  plates  had  to  be 
ordered  before  the  N.C.  Department  of 
Motor  Vehicles  could  begin  manufac- 
turing them. 

Seahawk  license  plates  are  $25  in  addi- 
tion to  the  regular  motor  vehicle  regis- 
tration fee.  The  UNCW  Alumni 
Association  receives  $15  from  every 
plate  application  to  fund  its  scholar-

Spring/Summer  1998 


Anniversary  has  been  golden 


Our  50th  anniversary  year  has  been  full  of 
wonderful  happenings.  Golden  tours  in 
Charlotte,  Jacksonville  and  Richmond  have 
bonded  our  alumni  and  shown  great  sup- 
port fromourgrowingchapters.  The  alumni 
participation  at  our  socials  has  been  the 
greatest  ever.  The  CAA  tournament  week- 
end in  Richmond  highlighted  the  UNCW 
alumni  pride  for  our  fantastic  basketball 
players  and  coaches.  And  finally,  this  year 
we  will  see  our  UNCW  license  tags  on  the 
highways  of  North  Carolina.  WE  have  truly 
had  a  glorious  golden  anniversary  year. 

None  of  this  could  have  happened  without 
alumni  like  you  and  the  dedicated  alumni 
board  working  behind  the  scenes  all  the 


time.  I  am  extremely 
proud  of  our  alumni 
board.  These  volunteers 
give  so  much  of  their  time 
and  resources  to  make 
your  alumni  association 
one  of  the  very  best.  I 
wish  to  publicly  thank 
them  for  their  hard  work  this  year. 


Blizzard '83, '97 


As  we  look  forward  to  our  next  50  years,  we 
have  many  challenges  and  opportunities  to 
do  wonderful  things  for  our  university.  I  ask 
that  each  of  you  in  your  own  way  help  us 
make  UNCW  a  golden  university.

Changes  underway  at  Wise  House, 
new  alumni  program  is  explored 


I  hope  you  have  been  able  to  see  our  facelift 
in  progress  at  Wise  Alumni  House.  If  not, 
please  take  note1  Almost  daily  there  are  new 
improvements  being  made  of  which  we  are 
extremely  proud.  New  roof,  replaced  and 
repaired  columns,  woodwork,  primer  and 
paint,  sound  system,  chandeliers,  mirrors, 
draperies,  shutters  and  more  are  a  part  of 
Miss  Jessie's  mega  house  makeover. 

On  the  second  floor  of  our  alumni  house, 
where  our  alumni  operations  take  place, 
research,  innovation  and  collaboration  is 
going  on.  We  are  studying  and  packaging 
for  our  alumni  a  new  program  -  our  mem- 
bership dues  program.  While  still  in  the  in- 
fancy stages,  let  me  define  the  need  for  such 
a  program. 

The  UNCW  Alumni  Association  wants  to 
unite  and  reunite  alumni  to  UNCW  with  the 
primary  purpose  of  raising  support  for  the 
institution.  Throughout  the  nation,  mem- 
bership dues  programs  signify  level  of  inter- 
est and  commitment  to  the  institution.  This 
commitment  equates  into  volunteer  ser- 
vice, raised  level  of  giving  to  pet  projects  and 
participation  in  university-sponsored  pro- 
grams. Alumni  who  are  more  informed  and

involved  statistically  give 
greater  university  financial 
support. 

Our  goal  is  to  increase  rev- 
enue  to  the  association 
while  enabling  our  UNCW 
Alumni  Association  to  ex- 
pand programs  and  ser- 
vices to  our  alumni  base.  We  face 
dwindling  state  dollars  but  have  an  op- 
portunity to  meet  this  challenge  with  a 
proven  solution.  Given  time,  a  member- 
ship dues  program,  along  with  university 
support  and  alumni  and  friends  contribu- 
tions, will  enable  us  to  better  serve  you. 
More  details  are  to  come.  Here's  to  this 
new  direction  as  it  gently  unfolds.

Spring/Summer  1998 


UNCW  Magazine       1  7 


uncw  celebrates  50  years  of  excel- 
lence, and  i  am  a  proud  graduate,  class 
of  1950.  My  class,  1948-50,  was  the 
first  to  attend  day  classes  in  the  isaac 
Bear  Building. 

Twenty-five  of  us  graduated.  At  least  three  of 
us  are  engineers,  one  teacher,  one  attorney, 
one  minister  and  a  journalist.  I  have  lost  track 
of  the  rest  and  would  be  interested  in  any  in- 
formation you  have. 

On  the  27th  of  December,  the  UNCW  basketball 
team  played  the  University  of  Maryland  at  Col- 
lege Park.  Carolyn  and  I  are  life  members  of 
the  Terrapin  Club  and  attended  the  game,  but  I 
wore  Seahawk  colors  for  this  one.  Wilmington, 
playing  without  its  star ,  did  not  show  well, 
but  I  was  the  proudest  of  11,000  fans.  This 
was  a  long  way  from  the  Isaac  Bear  Gym. 

I  was  particularly  interested  in  Oleg  Kojenets, 
a  player  for  UNCW  with  whom  my  brother,  Ber- 
nard, has  become  acguainted.  Ironically,  Oleg 
is  from  Minsk,  Belarus,  my  father's  hometown. 
I  am  enclosing  a  photo  of  Oleg  and  me.  By  the 
way,  I  am  still  close  to  six  feet  tall. 

My  best  to  friends  .  .  .  and  everyone  at  UNCW. 
May  you  continue  to  celebrate  excellence  in 
the  years  to  come.

people.  He  is  truly  a  man  of 
vision  able  to  direct  the  com- 
munity toward  what  we  want 
to  see  happen  in  the  next  10 
to  15  years." 

Greer  enjoyed  the  challenges 
of  county  business  from  his 
first  encounter  with  it,  and 
he  says  that  he  learned  im- 
mediately that  growth  and 
the  pains  associated  with  it  is 
the  name  of  the  game  in  New 
Hanover  County.

Corbett  '65  and  Jerry  Hawks  '67. 


"We  cannot  stop  it,  and  in  fact  it  is  the  best  scenario  we  can 
have  if  it  is  controlled  well  and  decisions  that  are  made  are 
the  best  ones  for  all  concerned,"  he  said.  "Some  fields  and 
stands  of  pines  must  be  sacrificed,  which  is  very  difficult  for 
people  to  understand  and  seems  harsh  on  the  environment, 
but  with  responsible  decisions  we  will  end  up  with  the  most 
desirable  of  possible  results." 

Greer  is  forthright  in  his  belief  that  citizens  must  be  prepared 
to  live  with  the  results  of  what  is  created  in  terms  of  zoning 
and  other  planning  decisions.  "The  Wilmington  area  is  be- 
coming so  crowded,  a  fact  that  many  folks  are  unhappy 
about,  that  we  must  strive  together,  no  matter  our  party  affili- 
ation to  do  the  best  with  our  circumstances,"  he  said. 

As  an  elected  official  preparing  to  begin  his  third  campaign 
for  office,  Greer  sees  his  constituents  as  one  of  two  types. 
There  are  those  who  believe  that  since  they  voted  him  into 
office  he  should  vote  as  they  demand.  On  the  other  hand 
there  are  those  who  put  him  into  the  office  with  the  expecta- 
tion that  he  will  know  the  issues,  represent  them  well,  and  do 
the  right  thing  when  it  is  time  to  make  the  decisions. 

"These  are  the  people  I  hold  myself  accountable  to,"  he  said. 

Commissioner  Greer  is  first  vice  president  of  the  North  Caro- 
lina Association  of  County  Commissioners  and  is  preparing  to 
become  president  of  the  board  this  summer.  He  has  served  as 
president  of  the  Wilmington  Rotary  Club  and  the  U.S.  Navy 
League,  Wilmington  Council.  He  also  is  past  chairman  of  the 
Salvation  Army  Board  and  former  appointee  of  the  Governor's 
Cape  Fear  River  Navigation  and  Pilotage  Commission. 

In  addition,  he  serves  as  the  appointed  representative  of  the 
New  Hanover  County  Board  of  Commissioners  on  various 
committees  such  as  the  Greater  Wilmington  Chamber  of 
Commerce,  Joint  Urban  Planning  and  Growth  Ad  Hoc  Com- 
mittee and  the  New  Hanover  County  Parks  and  Recreation

No.  9  in  the  South 


Latest  U.S.  News  report 
gives  UNCW  high  ratings 


UNCW  received  national  recog- 
nition this  fall  as  it  was  ranked 
one  of  the  top  10  public  universi- 
ties in  the  South  by  U.S.  News 
and  World  Report. 

In  the  magazine's  12th  annual 
"America's  Best  Colleges"  guide- 
book, UNCW  is  ranked  ninth 
among  top  regional  public 
schools  in  the  South.  In  addition, 
UNCW  received  top  rankings  for 
"best  college  value"  and  lowest 
student  debt  load. 

U.S.  News  classifies  regional  uni- 
versities as  those  offering  a  wide 
selection  of  undergraduate  pro- 
grams and  master's  degrees,  but 
few,  if  any  doctoral  programs.  In 
determining  its  rankings,  U.S. 
News  uses  several  indicators  to 
measure  academic  quality:  aca- 
demic reputation,  retention  of 

Fall  enrollment  rises 

With  applications  for  admission 
up  more  than  5  percent  over  last 
year,  UNCW  welcomed  its  largest 
freshman  class  ever  this  fall. 

Of  the  more  than  7,000  students 
who  applied,  1 ,650  were  enrolled 
as  freshmen.  In  addition,  the  uni- 
versity welcomed  900  new  trans- 
fer students  and  250  new  graduate 
students.  This  brings  the  total 
university  enrollment  to  about 
9,550. 

The  academic  quality  of  students 
enrolling  at  UNCW  also  rose  this 
year.  The  average  SAT  score  was 
1,094,  and  the  average  GPA  was 
3.47. 

"It  is  noteworthy  that  despite  the 
university's  accommodation  of  a 
freshman  class  that  will  be  almost 
20  percent  larger  than  last  year's, 
the  indicators  mentioned  above 
are  as  high  as  they  were  a  year 
ago,"  said  Bob  Fry,  director  of  in- 
stitutional research. 


students,  faculty  resources,  stu- 
dent selectivity,  financial  re- 
sources and  alumni  giving. 

UNCW  is  ranked  eighth  among 
Southern  regional  universities  in 
the  U.S.News  list  of  "best  college 
values  among  regional  universi- 
ties." U.S.  News  measures  value 
by  relating  a  school's  quality 
ranking  with  the  net  cost  to  a  stu- 
dent who  receives  the  average 
level  of  financial  aid.  The  rankings 
were  devised  to  provide  a  realis- 
tic measure  of  where  students  can 
get  the  best  education  for  their 
money.  The  rankings  related  the 
cost  of  attending  an  institution 
to  its  quality. 

In  addition,  UNCW's  1997  gradu- 
ates carried  the  third  lightest  av- 
erage debt  load  among  the 
graduates  of  Southern  regional 
universities.  While  64  percent  of 
the  graduates  left  in  debt,  the 
amount  averaged  just  $4,129. 


Dr.  James  McGowan,  center,  is  recognized  by  Chancellor  James  Leutze  and 
Provost  Marvin  Moss  at  convocation.  He  received  a  Distinguished  Teaching 
Professorship  as  well  as  the  UNCW  Board  of  Trustees  Teaching  Excellence  Award. 

Top  teachers  recognized 


Sixteen  awards  for  teaching  ex-

Science  Research  at  Myrtle  Grove,  which  is  scheduled  for  completion  in 
summer  1999.  Ground  was  broken  for  the  student  recreation  center  in  May, 
and  construction  is  now  underway.  That  64,000-square-foot  building  near 
Wagoner  Hall  should  be  complete  in  time  for  the  start  of  classes  in  fall 
1999.  An  $8.4  million  classroom  building,  to  be  located  near  Morton  Hall, 
is  in  the  design  stage  and  should  be  built  by  April  2000.

ing Excellence  Award  in  recog- 
nition of  his  contributions  to 
higher  education  through  dedi- 
cation and  service  to  students. 

The  Chancellor's  Teaching  Excel-

ing; Deborah  Fauble,  Watson

state  honors  this  year  when  he 
was  given  the  UNC  Board  of 
Governor's  Award  for  Excellence 
in  Teaching.

Changing  faces 


Provost  plans  return 
to  teaching  in  1999 


An  individual  who  has  been  in- 
strumental in  the  growth  and  in- 
creased recognition  of  UNCW's 
academic  programs  will  return 
to  teaching  after  seven  years  at 
UNCW. 

Dr.  Marvin  K.  Moss,  provost  and 
vice  chancellor  for  academic  af- 
fairs, announced  his  intention  to 
resign  from  his  position  at  the 
end  of  the  academic  year,  effec- 
tive July  1,  1999.  Under  Dr.  Moss' 
leadership  UNCW  implemented 
numerous  undergraduate  and 
graduate  programs,  33  minors 
and  UNCW's  first  terminal  de- 
gree program.  In  addition,  both 
studentpopulationsand  student 
retention  rates  increased  dra- 
matically to  the  point  where 
UNCW  is  now  one  of  the  top  four 
in  the  UNC  system.  To  grow 
UNCW's  academic  programs,  Dr. 
Moss  worked  with  Chancellor 
James  R.  Leutze  to  secure  equity 
funding  for  UNC  system  institu- 
tions which  brought  an  addi- 
tional $2.6  million  to  UNCW. 

Among  other  personnel  changes, 
W.  Patton  McDowell  IV,  Seahawk 
Club  director,  was  named  interim 
vice  chancellor  for  university  ad- 
vancement, replacing  Kevin  C. 
Jacques  who  resigned  in  June. 
McDowell  led  a  successful  Sea- 
hawk  Club  campaign,  raising 
membership  from  530  to  907  and 
contributions  from  $289,000  to 
$550,000.  He  also  launched 
Project  2000  to  raise  nearly  $5 
million  for  athletic  facilities. 

Dr.  Daniel  G.  Baden  was  ap- 
pointed director  of  the  UNCW 
Center  for  Marine  Science  Re- 
search. He  was  director  and  prin- 
cipal investigator  of  the  National 
Institute  of  Environmental  Health 
Sciences  Marine  and  Freshwater 
Biomedical  Sciences  Center  at  the 
University  of  Miami  and  past  chair 
of  the  Division  of  Marine  Biology 
and  Fisheries  at  the  Rosenstiel 
School  of  Marine  and  Atmo- 
spheric Science  at  the  University 


of  Miami.  His  wife,  Dr.  Alina  M. 
Szmant,  was  appointed  professor 
of  biological  sciences.  She  first 
identified  the  lunar  and  tempera- 
ture keys  that  trigger  coral  spawn- 
ing and  has  worked  closely  with 
UNCW's  National  Undersea  Re- 
search Center  (NURC)  program 
in  Florida  in  carrying  out  her  coral 
reef  research. 

Dr.  Steven  Miller  is  the  new  direc- 
tor for  UNCW/NURC.  Miller  was 
associate  director  of  the  center's 
Florida  program,  where  he 
worked  extensively  wiihAquarius, 
the  world's  only  underwater  re- 
search laboratory.  Aquarius  is  ad- 
ministered by  UNCW/  NURC  and 
the  National  Oceanic  and  Atmo- 
spheric Administration. 

Dr.  L.  Scott  Quackenbush  re- 
placed Dr.  Ron  Sizemore  as  chair 
of  the  Department  of  Biological 
Sciences,  a  position  he  previ- 
ously held  at  Florida  Interna- 
tional University. 

Award-winning  independent 
filmmaker  Ellen  Walters  of 
Laurinburg  is  UNCW's  first  film 
studies  coordinator.  New  this  fall, 
the  film  studies  minor  is  a 
multidisciplinary  program  that 
draws  from  courses  in  history, 
communication  studies,  English 
and  theatre. 

New  master's 
degree  offered 

This  fall  UNCW  initiated  its  new- 
est master's  degree  program, 
marine  science. 

The  interdisciplinary  program 
applies  knowledge  of  biological, 
chemical,  physical  and  geologi- 
cal sciences,  plus  mathematics 
and  computer  science,  to  the 
study  of  marine  systems.  It  will 
allow  expansion  of  UNCW's  cur- 
rent studies  of  the  environmen- 
tal and  economic  challenges 
brought  on  by  the  population 
growth  in  coastal  counties.

Neuse  River  is  focus 
of  new  documentary 

Once  again,  UNCW  and  N.C. 
State  University  are  teaming  up 
to  produce  a  television  docu- 
mentary focusing  on  North 
Carolina  waterways,  this  time 
the  Neuse  River.  This  is  the 
university's  third  in  a  series  of 
award-winning  documentaries. 

Titled "  River  of  Peace:  Reclaiming 
the  Neuse, "  the  documentary  will 
drawpublic  attention  to  die  plight 
of  the  Neuse  exactly  when  it  can 
do  the  most  good:  a  state  basin- 
wide  management  plan  has  been 
adopted  and  lively  debate  on  its 
application  has  begun.  Like  pre- 
vious UNCW  documentaries,  it 
will  emphasize  the  positive  work 
that  is  being  done  through  pub- 
lic-private partnerships  to  clean 
up  the  basin,  to  reclaim  an  impor- 
tant public  trust  and  to  inspire 
hope  that  smart  science  and  in- 
formed citizen  action  can  make  a 
difference  for  the  better. 

UNCW  Chancellor  James  R. 
Leutze  hosts  the  one-hour  docu- 
mentary that  is  expected  to  air  in 
spring  1999  on  UNC-TV.  He  leads 
viewers  do  wn  the  Neuse  by  kayak 
and  research  vessel,  interviewing 
scientists,  fishermen,  environ- 
mentalists, hog  farmers,  industry 
representatives,  local  government 
leaders  and  residents  trying  to  put 
into  perspective  their  competing 
claims  about  what  ails  the  Neuse 
and  how  to  fix  it. 

An  interdisciplinary  education 
guide  and  Web  site  are  being  de- 
veloped as  companions  to  the 
documentary. 


Hormones,  gender  &  sex 

Charting  the  new 
ABC's  of  learning 

How  do  hormones  affect  cognitive 
learning? 

This  question  has  been  a  hot  topic 
in  UNCW's  Psychology  Department 
recently,  and  Dr.  Bill  Overman  is 
searching  for  answers.  Overman 
received  a  $450,000  grant  from 
the  National  Institute  of  Child 
Health  and  Human  Development  to 
aid  in  his  research  on  the  effects 
of  hormones  on  cognition  during 
key  stages  of  human  development. 
The  grant  will  be  dispersed  over  a 
three-year  period;  however.  Over- 
man believes  research  in  this  area 
may  never  be  complete.  He  has 
been  studying  this  field  for  10 
years  and  feels  that  psychologists 
have  yet  to  discover  the  true 
myriad  of  information  in  this 
field. 

The  goal  of  Overman's  research  is 
"to  investigate  the  role  of  hor- 
mones on  thinking  across  the  life 
span."  The  subjects  of  his  research 
are  children  ages  one  to  four; 
adolescents  in  seventh,  eighth 
and  ninth  grades;  college  students 
18  to  23  (the  prime  of  hormonal 
activity)  and  older  men  and 
women. 

In  his  research,  Overman  hopes  to 
learn  more  about  how  the  brain 
works  as  related  to  gender  and 
sex.  Basically,  he  will  examine 
how  naturally  occurring  hormonal 
events  interact  with  socialization 
and  biology  to  affect  cognitive 
behavior.  Through  his  research, 
teachers  may  be  better  equipped 
to  identify  different  styles  of 
thinking  and  respond  accordingly. 

Overman  attributes  his  success  to 
the  many  research  students  who 
have  assisted  him  in  this  endeavor 
over  the  years.  This  project  "is  a 
huge  team  effort,"  he  said,  which 
includes  year-round  testing  of 
subjects. 

Overman  attended  Wake  Forest 
University  and  completed  graduate 
and  doctoral  degrees  at  Pennsyl- 
vania State  University.  His  post- 
doctoral research  was  conducted 
at  the  University  of  Rochester  in 
New  York.  He  joined  UNCW's  fac- 
ulty in  1978,  and  this  fall  he  was 
given  UNCW's  Award  for  Faculty 
Scholarship.

UNCW  setting 
for  Dawson's 
Creek  filming 

You  can  read  about  it  in  maga- 
zines, watch  promos  for  it  on  tele- 
vision and  see  it  filmed  at  UNCW. 

The  popular  coming-of-age  televi- 
sion series  Dawson 's  Creekis  set  in 
a  Boston  suburb,  but  the  filming  is 
done  at  EUE/ Screen  Gems  Studios 
and  at  locations  around  Wilming- 
ton including  the  UNCW  campus. 

Many  of  the  extras  used  in  the  film- 
ing are  UNCW  students,  said  Sh- 
annon DeAntonio,  who  handles 
the  show's  extras  casting  for 
Fincannan  and  Associates.  Like 
Shannon,  a  former  UNCW  com- 
munication studies  intern  who  left 
school  to  work  full-time  in  the  busi- 
ness, other  students  are  using  the 
show  as  an  opportunity,  not  only 
to  earn  some  extra  cash  ($6  an  hour) 
but  to  learn  more  about  television 
show  production. 

Ellen  Walters,  UNCW  film  studies 
coordinator,  said  there  are  three 
students  working  as  interns  with 
the  show  this  fall:  Michael  Hux  of 


Live  at  UNCW .  .  .  James  Van  Der 
Beek  (above),  Joshua  Jackson 
(top  right)  and  Katie  Holmes

Rocky  Mount,  Michael  Hoffman 
and  Katie  Seitz  of  Sanford. 

Working  in  the  lighting  and  grip 
department  Hux  has  observed 
that  beingonthe  set  is  not  as  glam- 
orous as  he  thought  it  would  be. 
"It  is  hard  work  and  long  hours," 
he  said,  but  "cool  to  be  able  to 


watch  the  show  at  home  and  rec- 
ognize things  from  the  set."  Seitz 
says  her  job  answering  phones 
and  filing  in  the  production  office 
is  "nothing  too  exciting,"  but  she 
expects  to  be  moving  on  to  the  art 
department  before  her  internship 
ends  in  December. 


The  first  to  be  inducted  in  UNCW's  Athletic  Halt  of  Fame  were  Janet  Johnson  '84,  who  achieved  Alt-American  status 
as  a  swimmer  13  times  during  her  four-year  career  with  the  Seahawks  in  the  early  1980s;  Sam  O'Leary  '84,  UNCW's

Athletes  are  first 

Continuing  a  trend  of  producing 
quality  student-athletes,  UNCW 
this  year  again  paced  the  Uni- 
versity of  North  Carolina  system 
in  graduation  rates  for  student- 
athletes. 

In  the  annual  graduation  rates 
report  released  by  the  UNC  Board 
of  Governors,  UNCW  student-ath- 
letes posted  a  graduation  rate  of 
68.8  percent  for  freshmen  enter- 
ing school  in  1992.  That  put  the 
Seahawks  ahead  of  the  other  14 
institutions  reporting  and  main- 
tains UNC  Wilmington's  excellent 
track  record  in  the  report. 

In  the  last  10  years,  UNCW  has 
placed  first  three  times,  second 
six  times  and  third  once. 

Second  CAA  title 

UNCW's  men  successfully  de- 
fended their  conference  title  at 
the  1998  Colonial  Athletic  Asso- 
ciation Track  and  Field  Champi- 
onships. They  captured  five  indi- 
vidual titles  to  outdistance 
William  and  Mary  by  a  tally  of 
151.5  to  124. 

Junior  Bryant  Lowe,  who  was 
named  the  Athlete  of  the  Meet, 
paced  the  Seahawks  with  two 
first-place  finishes  in  the  long 
jump  (22-11)  and  javelin  (178- 
5).  Lowe  also  finished  second  in 
the  high  jump  (6-3  1/2),  third  in 
the  triple  jump  (48-8  1/2)  and 
fourth  in  the  discus  (131-2). 
Michael  McDuffie  outleaped  the 
field  in  the  triple  jump  (49-2  1/ 
2)  to  earn  the  title  for  the  third 
consecutive  year.  Seahawk 
throwers  Donnie  Watkins  and 
Steven  Sarigiannis  won  the  shot 
put  (51-7  3/4)  and  discus  (157- 
10),  respectively.  For  Sarigiannis 
it  was  his  second  consecutive 
CAA  shot  put  championship.

Wainwrightissettinghis  sights  high

"We  always  approach  each  year

who  has  a  65-52  (.556)  overall 
record  in  four  seasons  with  the  Sea-

winningest  active  coach  in  the  CAA

"One  is  to  win  the  regular  season 


This  year's  club  may  not  win  every 
contest,  but  it  certainly  should 
claim  a  lion's  share. 
"We  return  a  veteran  team,  but  we'll 
still  probably  be  picked  third  or 
fourth  in  the  league,"  Wainwright 
said.  "We  still  have  a  lot  to  prove,

You  can  read  about  it  in  maga-

The  popular  coming-of-age  televi-

a  Boston  suburb,  but  the  filming  is 
done  at  EUE/Screen  Gems  Studios

Fall/Winter  1998 


Wainwrighf s  outlook  lofty  for  98-99  season 


Wain  wright  is  setting  his  sights  high 

as  the  UNCW  Seahawks  welcome 
back  a  veteran  cast  for  the  1998-99 
campaign. 

"We  always  approach  each  year 
with  three  goals,"  said  Wainwright, 
who  has  a  65-52  (.556)  overall 
record  in  four  seasons  with  the  Sea- 
hawks.  He  already  is  the  second 
winningest  active  coach  in  theCAA 
witha.662winningpercentage(47- 
24)  in  league  games. 
"One  is  to  win  the  regular  season 
CAA  tide.  Two  is  to  win  the  CAA 
tournament  championship.  And 
three  is  to  advance  more  than  one 
round  in  the  NCAAs.  I  think  the 
kids  whet  their  appetites  for  post- 
season play  last  year.  The  NIT  was 
a  great  experience,  but  it's  not  like 
going  to  the  NCAAs.  That's  our  ul- 
timate goal." 

Recapturing  the  spirit  and  success 
of  last  season  will  be  a  challenge. 


This  year's  club  may  not  win  every 
contest,  but  it  certainly  should 
claim  a  lion's  share. 
"We  returna  veteran  team,  but  we'll 
still  probably  be  picked  third  or 
fourth  in  the  league,"  Wainwright 
said.  "We  still  have  a  lot  to  prove, 
but  we've  always  internalized  pres- 
sure. I  think  our  non-conference 
schedule  could  ultimately  turn  out 
to  be  the  most  difficult  we've 
played." 

The  heart  of  the  1998-99  edition 
lies  on  the  perimeter,  where  heady 
point  guard  Billy  Donlon  and 
skywalker  Stan  Simmons  patrol. 
However,  the  Seahawks  will  miss 
the  long-range  accuracy  of  Mark 
Byington,  who  graduated  with 
nearly  every  three-point  field  goal 
record  in  the  annals.  Wainwright 
hopes  the  frontcourt  will  continue 
to  improve  and  develop,  giving  the 
team  versatility.  Senior  Oleg

"Leadership  is  the  ability  to

In  addition,  she  feels  that

"This  means  having  the  ability  to 
direct,  take  responsibility  for  and 
implement  change  within  oneself. 
An  effective  leader  must  have  a 
sense  of  personal  direction." 


In  the  early  80's,  Dr.  William  A.  Bryan, 
former  vice  chancellor  for  student  af- 
fairs, observed  a  national  movement  to- 
ward leadership  development  on 
college  campuses.  In  response,  he  es- 
tablished a  task  force  comprised  of  stu- 
dents, faculty  and  staff  in  1986.  Its  sole 
purpose  was  to  advocate  a  means  of 
leadership  training  for  students,  faculty 
and  staff  at  UNCW.  Because  of  the  col- 
laboration between  then  Chancellor 
William  Wagoner  and  the  task  force,  a 
leadership  director's  position  in  the 
University  Union  was  established  in  the 
fall  of  1988  and  assumed  by  Cathy  Bir- 
mingham. It  gave  birth  to  a  program 
that  promotes  "self-awareness,  leader- 
ship development,  organizational  excel- 
lence, appreciation  of  diversity  and 
recognition  that  global  issues  and  con- 
cerns are  part  of  a  dynamic,  interrelated 
system."  This  program  became  known 
as  the  Leadership  Center. 


Volunteer  work  is  an  active  component 
of  the  Leadership  Center  and  is  essen- 
tial in  the  development  of  a  leader. 

"Volunteerism  was  a  part  of  the  na- 
tional collegiate  leadership  move- 
ment," Dr.  Bryan  said.  "Volunteerism 
grows  out  of  leadership." 

The  Leadership  Center  fields  several 
volunteer  programs  and  opportunities. 
Among  these  are  service  trips  such  as 
the  Break  Away  Program  and  Global 
Volunteers,  one-time  volunteer  oppor- 
tunities held  several  times  a  month 
known  as  Seahawk  Surges,  on-going 
volunteer  placements  that  work  with 
more  than  100  nonprofit  agencies 
related  to  youth,  adult  and  health 
services  as  well  as  basic  needs,  a 
volunteer  opportunity  intended  for 
freshmen  and  transfer  students  only 
called  FIRSTSERV,  and  class-related 
services.

Jennifer  Hallman,  a  senior  lead- 
ership studies  minor  at  UNCW, 
has  taken  advantage  of  volun- 
teering opportunities,  many  of 
which  are  through  her  sorority, 
Alpha  Gamma  Delta.  She  has  vol- 
unteered at  Girls  Inc.,  an  after- 
school  program  that  allows 
young  women  such  as  Hallman 
to  mentor  impressionable  young 
girls.  She  also,  as  a  project  with 
her  sorority,  has  helped  raise 
money  for  juvenile  diabetes  and 
participated  in  Beach  Sweep,  a 


education,  communication 
studies,  management,  philoso- 
phy and  religion,  political  sci- 
ence, psychology,  recreation 
and  sociology.  Joanne 
Nottingham  of  the  Watson 
School  of  Education  taught  the 
first  Leadership  Studies  course 
titled  Contemporary  Leadership 
Applications  or  LED  411. 

Hallman  chose  the  minor  be- 
cause she  simply  "enjoy(s)  lead- 
ership." Having  been  in 
leadership  positions  in  high 


me  techniques  that  I  use  in  cam- 
pus organization  meetings." 

However,  a  prospective  leader 
needs  more  than  just  academic 
training  to  be  effective  —  cam- 
pus involvement  is  crucial.  They 
go  hand-in-hand. 

Elaine  Duck,  who  received  a 
bachelor  of  arts  degree  in  com- 
munication studies  in  1997  can 
attest  to  that.  During  her  time  at 
UNCW  as  a  leadership  minor, 
Duck's  experience  taught  her  to

program  that  helps  clean  up  litter 
on  the  beach. 

Hallman  can  relate  her  volunteer 
experience  to  her  leadership 
training. 

"I  realized  that  it  makes  me  feel 
good  to  help  other  people,"  said 
Hallman.  "That  has  helped  me  de- 
velop as  a  leader." 

Out  of  the  Leadership  Center 
evolved  UNCW's  interdisciplinary 
leadership  studies  minor  that  al- 
lows future  leaders  to  academi- 
cally prepare  themselves  for 
opportunities  that  lie  ahead.  Of- 
fered by  the  College  of  Arts  and 
Sciences,  this  minor  was  incorpo- 
rated into  the  curriculum  in  1995. 
The  minor  includes  courses  in 


school,  such  as  class  president 
and  cheerleading  captain,  she 
was  driven  to  continue  her  lead- 
ership experiences  throughout 
her  years  in  college. 

Hallman's  primary  focus  in  her 
leadership  experience  has  been 
in  Greek  life.  She  has  served  as  a 
personal  development  coordi- 
nator for  Alpha  Gamma  Delta 
and  director  of  Rho  Chi,  a  group 
of  rush  counselors  who  help 
rushees  find  direction. 

"Combined  with  my  major  in 
communication  studies,  I  have 
learned  effective  relational  and 
interpersonal  skills  when  deal- 
ing with  people,"  said  Hallman. 
"The  leadership  minor  taught 


"be  a  leader  instead  of  just  learn- 
ing about  being  a  leader."  She  is 
currently  a  project  manager  for 
DWJ  Television,  a  broadcast  public 
relations  firm  in  Washington,  DC. 

The  leadership  skills  she  ac- 
quired at  UNCW  have  manifest 
themselves  in  her  career.  Duck 
participates  in  many  aspects  of 
the  company  including  sales,  ac- 
count management,  production, 
distribution  and  placement  while 
working  directly  for  the  senior 
vice  president. 

"Since  I  was  so  involved  in  stu- 
dent activities  at  UNCW,  the 
leadership  minor  helped  me 
clarify  my  role  as  a  student 
leader,"  said  Duck.

"I  learned  the  theories  behind 
my  experiences." 

Current  students  and  alumni  are 
very  pleased  with  the  minor. 

"I  was  lucky  to  be  part  of  a  pro- 
gram that  gave  students  a  chance 
to  provide  their  input  and  ideas. 
Since  I  went  through  the  first  set 
of  classes,  we  had  the  chance  to 
mold  the  minor  to  our  liking," 
said  Duck.  "The  professors  were 
very  willing  to  listen  and  learn 
from  the  student  leaders.  It  was 
much  more  of  an  interactive 
classroom  than  your  regular  lec- 
ture-type atmosphere  and  much 
more  productive." 

Hallman  shares  Duck's  senti- 
ments. She  is  "very  happy  with 
the  minor  and  pleased  with  the 
classes  and  the  professors  who 
teach  them." 

Linda  Moore,  University  Union 
director  at  the  time  of  the  1988 
establishment  of  the  Leadership 
Center,  is  delighted  with  the 
progress  of  the  center,  of  which 
the  minor  is  an  integral  part. 

"The  leadership  studies  minor  is 
one  of  the  most  progressive  offer- 
ings from  the  Leadership  Center," 
said  Moore.  "It  is  very  rare  that  a 
student  can  receive  this  kind  of 
interdisciplinary  training." 

Along  with  the  students,  faculty 
and  staff  who  are  involved  in  the 
leadership  studies  minor,  Moore 
is  pleased  with  the  efforts  of 
those  in  the  community  who 
were  and  are  involved  in  estab- 
lishing and  maintaining  the  cen- 
ter. Through  the  efforts  of 
everyone  involved,  the  Leader- 
ship Center  receives  advice,  sup- 


port and  direction  from  people 
not  only  directly  involved  with 
UNCW,  but  those  in  the  commu- 
nity to  ensure  that  its  projects 
and  services  are  responsive  to 
the  needs  of  the  campus.  In  es- 
sence, it  "was  and  remains  a  col- 
laborative effort,"  said  Moore. 
Aside  from  teaching  students  the 
fundamentals  of  leadership,  the 
minor  has  helped  students  de- 
velop as  leaders  inwardly,  as 
emphasized  by  Dr.  Brunson. 

"The  leadership  minor  helped 
me  pinpoint  my  leadership  styles 
and  capabilities,"  said  Kristi 
Peacock,  a  junior  leadership 
studies  minor.  "This  allowed  me 
to  learn  more  about  conflict 
management,  group  work  and 
interpersonal  relations." 


has  the  insight  and  the  drive  to 
impart  her  leadership  skills  to  fu- 
ture college  students. 

As  for  Jennifer  Hallman,  the  lead- 
ership minor  has  helped  her 
grow  in  a  different  way  —  she 
gained  discernment. 

"The  leadership  minor  has 
taught  me  when  to  step  back  and 
be  a  follower  and  when  to  take 
charge  and  be  a  leader,"  said 
Hallman.  "Discernment  is  a  very 
important  aspect  of  leadership."

major.  She  is  a  public  relations 
intern  with  UNCW  University 
Relations. 


In- 
spired by  her 
experiences  as 
well  as  the  concept  of

ment so  that  she  can  give  back

Preparing  for  a  terrorist  attack 

Malone  develops  training  missions  nationwide 


By  Phillip  Brown 

an  earth-shattering  explosion  halts  the  seahawk  world 
Games  in  Trask  Coliseum.  In  the  chaos,  scores  are  injured 
trying  to  escape  the  burning  and  choking  sensation  of  the 
chemical  explosion  detonated  by  unknown  terrorists.  flee- 
ing spectators  are  met  by  emergency  personnel  and  loaded 
into  waiting  ambulances. 

Approximately  280  U.S.  Marines  and  sailors  comprising  the 
Chemical  and  Biological  Response  Force  (CBIRF)  stationed 
at  Camp  Lejeune  arrive.  Trained  to  handle  domestic  terror- 
ism, the  unit  sets  up  decontamination  tents.  Working  with 
local  police,  fire  and  rescue  personnel,  the  unit  inspects  the 
coliseum,  determines  the  chemical  agent  used  in  the  explo- 
sion and  coordinates  the  rescue  and  treatment  of  survivors. 

The  entire  process  took  about  three  hours,  but  the  military 
drill,  Exercise  Southern  Response,  provided  an  excellent  op- 
portunity for  the  two-year-old  CBIRF  unit  to  train  in  an  ur- 
ban setting,  said  UNCW  alumnus  Maj.  Michael  V.  Malone  '82. 


Maj.  Mike  Malone  '82  on  the  bank  of  the  New  River  at  Camp  Lejeune. 


While  this  was  only  an  exercise,  how  well  the  unit  handles 
the  pressure  faced  in  a  real-life  situation  depends  upon  Ma- 
lone, CBIRF's  operations  officer.  It  is  his  responsibility  to 
develop  CBIRF's  doctrines  and  procedures  for  responding 
to  threats  of  domestic  terrorism.  He  also  designs  training 
missions,  like  Exercise  Southern  Response,  to  prepare  the 
unit  to  deal  with  chemical,  biological  or  nuclear  weapons. 
In  developing  training  scenarios,  Malone  has  to  consider 
the  more  than  40  military  occupations  represented  by  the 
CBIRF  unit,  which  includes  everything  from  heavy  equip- 
ment operators  and  data  processors  to  medical  personnel 
and  specialists  in  urban  search  and  rescue. 

The  UNCW  exercise  involved  cooperation  between  the  mili- 
tary, U.S.  Public  Health  Service,  Wilmington  Fire  Department, 
university  police  and  staff  and  65  high  school  "Summer  Ven- 
tures" students  portraying  "victims"  of  a  chemical  attack. 

Malone  said  he  hopes  the  exercise  opens  a  door  between 
Wilmington  and  Camp  Lejeune.  "As  a  UNCW  graduate  sta- 
tioned at  Camp  Lejeune,  I've  discovered  the  relationship  be- 
tween Wilmington  and  the  base  is  not  the  best  in  the  world." 
While  there  are  many  reasons  why  the  animosity  exists,  Mal- 
one said  the  exercise  at  UNCW  "shows  that  the  military  does 
protect  and  serve  the  American  citizen. 

"CBIRF  is  an  organization  that  truly  has  a  concern  for  Ameri- 
cans' health  and  well-being.  Domestically,  we're  here  to  save 
American  lives  in  the  event  of  terrorist  attack.  The  people  of 
the  United  States  and  Wilmington  need  to  be  proud  of  what 
the  Marines  and  sailors  do  at  Camp  Lejeune,  where  30,000 
military  personnel  are  deployed  worldwide  protecting  Ameri- 
can interests." 

An  increased  need  for  domestic  protection  is  evident. 

"Terrorism  within  the  continental  United  States  exists;  look 
at  incidents  such  as  the  bombing  of  the  federal  building  in 
Oklahoma  and  the  World  Trade  Center  in  New  York,"  said 
Malone,  who  graduated  from  UNCW  with  a  bachelor's  de- 
gree in  psychology.  "The  increased  threat  to  U.S.  citizens 
from  a  terrorist  attack  using  a  chemical,  biological  or  nuclear 
weapon  on  American  soil  led  to  the  creation  of  CBIRF." 

As  operations  officer,  Malone  is  third  in  the  unit's  chain  of  com- 
mand. He  was  nominated  for  the  job  by  Undersecretary  of  the 
Navy  Richard  Danzig,  who  spearheaded  the  drive  to  create  a 
military  unit  responsible  for  dealing  with  domestic  terrorism. 

Designed  to  respond  to  attacks  throughout  the  United 
States,  Malone  said  CBIRF's  expertise  in  dealing  with  situa-

At  UNCW  golden  anniversary  gala  in  May,  Dan  Cameron  and  Robert  Warwick,  capital  campaign  co-chairs, 
presented  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  with  a  symbolic  check  closing  the  university's  first  capital  campaign. 

$25  million  campaign  completed 


The  University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington  marked  the  successful 
completion  of  its  first  major  capital  cam- 
paign drive  of  $25  million  at  the  gala 
celebration  in  May  which  capped  off  its 
year-long  50th  anniversary  celebration. 

Capital  campaign  co-chairs  Dan  Cam- 
eron and  Robert  Warwick  announced 
the  campaign's  completion  and  pre- 
sented a  ceremonial  check  to  UNCW 
Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze. 

"This  check  fulfills  our  promise  to  you 
and  the  university,"  said  Cameron.  "Let 
it  be  the  down  payment  on  even  greater 


things  to  come."  In  addition  to  the  check, 
Warwick  gave  the  chancellor  a  procla- 
mation listing  more  than  430  donors  who 
pledged  $5,000  or  more  to  the  campaign. 

As  the  university's  first  major  capital 
campaign,  it  was  launched  in  1992  with 
a  goal  of  raising  $15  million.  The  UNCW 
Board  of  Trustees  expanded  that  goal  to 
$25  million  in  1994.  The  campaign  was 
designed  to  build  the  university's  en- 
dowment to  fund  scholarships,  profes- 
sorships and  programs  supporting 
UNCW'  s  educational  and  service  mis- 
sion to  the  citizens  of  southeastern  North 
Carolina.

UNCW  Golden  Anniversary  challenge  he 
made  to  alumni,  parents  and  friends,  more 
than  $50,000  in  new  contributions  were 
made  to  the  university's  annual  fund  in 
1997-98. 

Corcoran,  who  is  a  member  of  the  UNCW 
Board  of  Trustees,  said  when  10,000  new 
dollars  were  raised  for  UNCW,  he  would 
contribute  an  additional  $10,000  to  the 
university. 

In  response,  1,071  individuals  made  their

creased the  amount  of  their  donations 
made  the  previous  year  by  more  than 
$14,000.  In  all,  53,568  new  challenge  dol- 
lars were  raised. 

Including  the  $10,000  from  Mickey 
Corcoran,  the  total  raised  in  the  UNCW 
Golden  Anniversaiy  challenge  was  $63, 568. 

Thank  to  Mickey  and  all  alumni,  friends

Warwick  recognized 
for  contributions 

Civic  leader  and  Wilmington  College  alumnus 
Robert  Warwick  was  recognized  by  UNCW 
with  the  renaming  of  the  University  Center 
in  his  honor. 

The  announcement  was  made  by  UNCW 
Board  of  Trustees  Chair  Hannah  Dawson 
Gage  at  the  50th  anniversary  gala  in  May. 

"As  a  native  of  Wilmington,  an  alumnus  of 
Wilmington  College,  a  graduate  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  North  Carolina  and  a  business 
leader  recognized  across  North  Carolina  and 
the  nation,  Bob  Warwick  is  a  community 
leader  actively  involved  in  the  growth  and 
welfare  of  our  city  and  region,"  Gage  said. 
She  added  Warwick  is  a  campus  leader  who 
has  faithfully  served  both  UNCW  and  the 
university  system. 

Warwick,  who  is  currently  a  member  of  the 
UNC  Board  of  Governors,  was  a  member  of 
the  UNCW  Board  of  Trustees  from  1989-97. 
He  began  his  educational  career  at  Wilming- 
ton College  in  1955  prior  to  graduating  from 
the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel 
Hilt  in  1958.  A  certified  public  accountant, 
Warwick  was  managing  partner  of 
Lowrimore,  Warwick  and  Co.  from  1973  until 
its  merger  with  McGladrey  and  Pullen,  certi- 
fied public  accountants  and  consultants,  in 
1992.  Warwick  is  also  past  president  of  the 
Greater  Wilmington  Chamber  of  Commerce 
and  Committee  of  100.  In  addition,  he  also 
chaired  the  UNCW  Foundation  and  UNCW's 
Endowment  Board.

Generous  donors  have  made  it  possible  for  the  Uni- 
versity of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington  to  establish 
five  endowed  faculty  chairs  through  the  Distin- 
guished Professors  Endowment  Trust  Fund. 

These  chairs  allow  the  university  to  bring  to  campus 
respected  and  accomplished  scholars  who  can  enrich 
the  academic  program  for  both  the  faculty  and  stu- 
dents. Further,  the  high  degree  of  visibility  and 
healthy  publicity  that  accompanies  such  individuals 
does  much  to  enhance  the  university's  reputation. 

The  fund,  established  in  1985  by  an  act  of  the  N.  C. 
General  Assembly,  allows  UNC  General  Administration 
to  supplement  individuals'  contributions  to  create  a 
$500,000  endowment  for  a  distinguished  professor- 
ship at  each  constituent  institution  of  the  University 
of  North  Carolina.  Individuals  contribute  $333,000 
while  the  state  provides  an  additional  $167,000. 

Professors  selected  for  this  honor  receive  a  salary 
supplement  and  funds  to  support  his/her  research 
and  scholarship. 

Of  UNCW's  five  endowed  chairs,  two  in  marine  science 
are  currently  vacant.  One  was  established  by  the  fam- 
ily of  C.  D.  Spangler,  former  president  of  the  UNC 
System,  and  the  C.  D.  Spangler  Foundation  and 
named  for  Frank  H.  Kenan.  The  second  was  created  by 
and  is  named  for  Carl  B.  Brown  of  Wilmington,  now 
deceased. 

Endowed  by  the  Bruce  B.  Cameron,  Jr.  and  Daniel  D. 
Cameron  families,  the  endowed  chair  in  accountancy 
at  the  UNCW  Cameron  School  of  Business  is  held  by 
Dr.  Joanne  Rockness. 

Rockness  is  director  of  the  Master  of  Science  in  Ac- 
countancy Program  but  teaches  at  the  undergraduate 
level  as  well. 

"The  most  important  part  of  my  job  is 
the  students,"  she  said.  "The  students 
are  our  mission,  but  the  chair  has  al- 
lowed me  to  become  more  involved  in 
the  North  Carolina  business  community 
and  more  active  in  research." 

In  1997  she  was  named  North  Carolina 
Outstanding  Accounting  Educator  by 
the  N.  C.  Association  of  CPAs,  which 
she  also  serves  as  a  member  of  the 
board  of  directors.  She  assists  in  the 
continuing  education  of  certified  pub- 
lic accountants  and  does  research  on  accounting  edu- 
cation issues,  business  ethics  and  financial  reporting. 

Service  is  also  important  to  Rockness  who  is  chair- 
man of  the  UNCW  Athletics  Council  and  a  member  of 
University  Advancement  Committee.  She  also  takes 
time  to  sail  on  the  40-foot  Southern  Pass  with  her 
husband.  Dr.  Howard  Rockness,  dean  of  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business,  and  their  dog  Sam.

A  sociologist  in  the  Watson  School  of  Education,  Mar- 
tin Kozloff  says  that  as  the  Donald  R.  Watson  Distin- 
guished Professor  in  Education  he  is  "trying  to  inject 
sociological  theories,  questions  and  methods  of  so- 
ciological research  into  our  larger  curriculum. 

"I  want  our  special  education  students 
to  understand  that  when  you  work 
with  children  with  disabilities  you  are 
not  merely  trying  to  change  their  be- 
havior, you  are  trying  to  change  their 
I      social  position  and  identity. 
'  kgg^,      "I  want  regular  education  students  to 
I      understand  that  they  are  operating  at 
I    "  x  I     the  intersection  of  a  number  of  his- 

|      torical,  cultural  and  political  trends.  I 
'.  Martin  Kozloff      want  them  to  understand  that  unless 
they  become  masters  of  their  subject 
and  not  merely  technicians,  they  will 
easily  be  shaped  by  these  trends." 
Outside  the  classroom,  Kozloff  is  doing  research  on 
Direct  Instruction,  what  he  deems  as  "the  most  well 
tested  and  most  effective  form  of  instruction." 
He  is  working  with  his  research  assistant,  Frances 
Bessellieu,  whose  position  is  funded  through  the  dis- 
tinguished professorship  Kozloff  has  held  for  the  past 
two  years. 

"We're  trying  to  see  how  Direct  Instruction  produces 
tight  knit  learning  communities  with  children  and 
teachers,  faster  high  rates  of  achievement,  raises 
children's  self-esteem  and  becomes  the  core  of  a 
school's  culture,"  he  said. 

Ned  Martin,  the  Will  S.  DeLoach  Distinguished  Profes- 
sor in  Chemistry,  uses  high  speed  computers,  such  as 
those  at  the  North  Carolina  Supercomputing  Center, 
to  do  "theoretical  calculations  of  various  chemical 
properties  in  an  attempt  to  relate  chemical  structure 
to  observed  phenomenon." 
His  projects  including  helping  under- 
stand how  drugs  bind  to  their  active 
site,  helping  predict  the  shape  pro- 
teins take  and  helping  predict  molecu- 
lar structure  based  on  spectroscopic 
measurements. 

An  application  of  his  work  would  be  to 
model  on  a  computer  how  cocaine 
binds  to  opiate  receptors  in  the  brain. 
A  better  understanding  of  how  drugs 
bind  to  receptors  may  eventually  lead 
to  the  development  of  drugs  that  don't 
elicit  a  certain  response,  he  said. 

Martin,  who  has  been  at  UNCW  for  26  years  and  is 
former  chair  of  the  Chemistry  Department,  is  in  the 
third  year  of  a  five-year  appointment  as  distinguished 
professor.  The  position  provides  limited  resources  to 
pay  students  to  assist  in  his  research  and  as  well  as 
cover  the  cost  of  travel,  equipment  and  software.

He  loved  the  family  vacations  to  the  Outer  Banks,  so 
when  Pennsylvania  native  Andrew  Tolhurst  met  UNCW 
coach  Dave  Allen  at  a  swimming  camp  not  far  from 
his  hometown,  he  knew  right  away  where  he  was  go- 
ing to  college. 

"I  was  hooked,"  said  Andrew. 

He  is  a  senior  English  major  who  this  year  for  the 
first  time  received  the  Anne  Green  Saus  Scholarship, 
established  by  her  nephew,  Charles  F.  Green  III.  The 
scholarship,  which  pays  in-state  tuition  and  fees  and 
includes  a  $200 
book  allowance, 
doesn't  cover  all 
of  Andrew's  out- 
of-state  tuition 
costs,  but  it  has 
enabled  him  to 
make  ends  meet, 
especially  living 
so  far  from  home. 

"It's  taken  the 
burden  off  my 
parents,  and 
they've  been  able 
to  help  me  with 
the  small  things," 
he  said. 

A  member  of  the 

swim  team  his 

freshman  and 

sophomore  years, 

Andrew  recently 

took  up  Ultimate  Frisbee.  In  addition,  he  is  assisting 

with  a  new  campus  publication  for  writers,  Assai. 

Andrew  holds  his  professors  in  high  regard,  noting, 
"This  English  Department  is  amazing."  In  fact 
they've  so  impressed  him  that  he  would  Like  to  re- 
turn to  campus  to  teach  once  he  completes  his  ad- 
vanced degrees.

Recipient  of  the  $3,500  Hughes  Brothers  Scholarship 
for  four  years,  Connie  Batounis  of  Wilmington  said 
having  her  tuition, 
books  and  some 
housing  costs  cov- 
ered has  enabled  her 
to  enhance  her  edu- 
cation beyond  the 
standard  classroom 
experience. 

Each  summer  she  has 
traveled  abroad:  to 
London  with  the  Hon- 
ors Scholars,  to  Scot- 
land with  Rotaract 
and  to  Germany/Aus- 
tria with  the  Chamber 
Singers. 

She  has  also  had  time 
to  devote  to  an  honors 
project,  which  in  May 
will  make  her  the  first 
UNCW  student  to 

graduate  from  the  Cameron  School  of  Business  with  de- 
partmental honors.  A  marketing  and  business  manage- 
ment major,  Connie  is  studying  how  children  affect 
family  purchasing  decisions.

State  funds  alone  are  often  not  enough  to  provide 
those  things  that  can  push  a  university  program  over 
the  top  in  the  pursuit  of  excellence. 

Professor  and  chairman  of  the  UNCW  Chemistry  De- 
partment from  1963  to  1976,  Dr.  Will 
S.  DeLoach  long  ago  realized  that  ex- 
ternal funding  is  the  essential  ele- 
ment. In  1989,  he  established  the 
DeLoach  Chemistry  Challenge,  and  ev- 
ery year  since  then,  he  has  matched 
individual  contributions  to  the  UNCW 
Chemistry  Department  (or  joint  contri- 
butions from  individuals  and  their  em- 
ployers) up  to  a  total  of  $10,000. 

Last  year.  Dr.  DeLoach  contributed 
$10,000  to  the  Chemistry  Department, 
plus  matching  funds. 

The  money  contributed  by  DeLoach  and 
UNCW  chemistry  alumni  goes  into  the  department's 
endowment,  which  is  about  a  fourth  of  the  way  to  the 
$2  million  goal  toward  which  Chemistry  Department 
Chair  Bill  Cooper  is  working. 

"We  have  been  lucky  through  Dr.  DeLoach  to  have  one 
of  the  better  departmental  endowments,"  Cooper  said. 
The  money  is  used  "to  enhance  our  teaching  and  re- 
search," and  he  explained  that  includes  funding  the 
Will  S.  DeLoach  Endowed  Professorship  in  Chemistry 
position,  which  supplements  the  salary  of  a  selected 
chemistry  professor  for  five  years  (currently  held  by 
Dr.  Ned  Martin),  as  well  as  undergraduate  assistant- 
ships  and  graduate  fellowships.

Inspired  by  his  grandfather  who  was  police  chief  of 
Maxton,  N.C.,  for  nearly  40  years,  Chad  McEwen,  a 
junior  from  Laurinburg,  has  a  double  major  in  crimi- 
nal justice  and 
political  science. 

And  with  help 
from  the  Mat- 
thew Dale 
Donahue  Schol- 
arship, he  is  able 
to  concentrate 
on  his  studies 
rather  than  wor- 
rying about  how 
his  bills  will  be 
paid. 

"It's  that  much 
less  my  mother 
has  to  pay  or  I 
have  to  borrow," 
he  said.  He  has 
written  to  the 
Donahue  family 
showing  his  ap- 
preciation of 

their  contribution  that  is  helping  him  get  an  good 
education.  Although  his  plans  for  the  future  are  not 
firm,  he  said  he  is  thinking  about  Law  school  or  some 
postgraduate  study  that  would  make  it  easier  for  him 
to  be  selected  for  service  with  the  Federal  Bureau  of 
Investigation  or  the  U.S.  Marshals.

SCHOLARSHIP 


A  senior  psychology  major,  Melinda  Smith  of  Franklin 
is  the  recipient  of  the  John  and  Constance  Phillips 
Scholarship,  established  two  years  ago.  This  scholar- 
ship, in  addition  to  a  $1,000  Pilot  Club  Scholarship 
and  other  financial  aid,  has  enabled  Melinda  to  con- 
centrate on  her 
studies.  As  a 
freshman,  she 
worked  three 
jobs  to  make 
ends  meet;  now, 
she  has  just  one 
job. 

"It  has  given  me 
more  time  to 
concentrate  on 
my  school  work," 
she  said.  After 
graduation  in 
May,  Melinda  an- 
ticipates enroll- 
ing in  a  clinical 
doctoral  program 
specializing  in 
developmental 
child  psychology. 

Melinda  Smith 

She  is  assisting 

in  two  research  projects:  Dr.  William  H.  Overman's 
study  on  the  differences  of  cognitive  behavior  be- 
tween male  and  female  preschool  children  and  Dr. 
Caroline  M.  Clements'  study  of  domestic  violence  and 
return  to  abuse  rates.    Last  summer  she  traveled  to 
Costa  Rica  with  Dr.  John  T.  Williams,  Jr.,  and  14  stu- 
dents to  study  animal  behavior  in  the  rain  forests. 

The  youngest  of  five,  Melinda  said  UNCW  is  the  only 
university  to  which  she  applied.  "I  loved  it.  The  cam- 
pus is  so  beautiful,"  she  said. 

And  she  is  grateful  to  people  like  the  Phillips  who 
assist  students  in  obtaining  an  education. 

"When  you  get  to  know  the  people  who  are  providing 
your  education,  it  makes  it  more  special,"  she  said.

The  Kenan  family  has  made  fi- 
nancial arrangements  to  cover 
the  costs  of  special  repairs  and 
renovations  to  UNCW's  Kenan 
House  and  Wise  Alumni  House. 

The  trustees  of  the  William  R. 
Kenan,  Jr.  Charitable  Trust  ap- 
proved in  1997  a  $1,000,000 
grant  to  the  university  founda- 
tion for  periodic  maintenance  of 
the  two  houses,  which  were  do- 
nated to  the  university  in  1968. 
The  money  cannot  be  used  for 
normal  operating  expenses. 

Kenan  House  was  home  to  Sarah 
Graham  Kenan  and  donated  to 
UNCW  by  her  nephew,  James 
Graham  Kenan.  It  is  now  the 
home  of  UNCW's  chancellor  and 
the  site  of  frequent  receptions. 

Next  door,  the  former  home  of 
Jessie  Hargrave  Kenan  Wise  was 
deeded  to  the  university  by 
Lawrence  Lewis, Jr.  (now  de- 
ceased) and  Mary  Lily  Flagler 
Lewis  Wiley,  and  in  1994  be- 
came the  home  of  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association.  The  orga- 
nization paid  for  the  renova- 
tion of  the  deteriorated  house 
which  was  vacant  for  more  than 
20  years.

This  summer  Vaughn  Reynolds  completed  his 
bachelor's  degree  in  accountancy  and  by  fall  he  was 
hard  at  work  on 
his  master's  de- 
gree at  UNCW's 
Cameron  School 
of  Business.  By 
next  summer,  he 
expects  to  be 
working  full-time 
for  Ernst  &  Young 
in  Raleigh. 

The  Cary  native 
whose  under- 
graduate educa- 
tion was  funded 
partially  through 
a  soccer  scholar- 
ship is  one  of  two 
students  to  re- 
ceive a  $2,500 
Ernst  &  Young 
national  minority 
student  award.  In 

addition,  Reynolds  was  awarded  a  $2,500  American 
Institute  of  CPAs  Scholarship  for  his  graduate  studies, 
and  he  works  as  a  graduate  assistant,  overseeing  ac- 
counting labs  and  teaching  spreadsheet  applications 
to  sophomores  and  freshmen. 

Reynolds  decided  to  continue  his  education  at  UNCW 
because  of  the  strong  foundation  he  received  as  an 
undergraduate.  "I  realized  there  was  more  informa- 
tion to  learn,  and  I  knew  we  had  a  good,  solid  pro- 
gram here,"  he  said.

In  Honor  of . 


SPECIAL  GIFTS 


All  gifts  to  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Wilmington 
and  its  foundation  are  tax-deductible  to  the  full  extent 
allowed  by  law.  Gifts  may  be  designated  for  a  specific  use 
or  left  unrestricted  to  be  used  where  the  need  is  greatest. 
Cash  Gifts 

The  simplest  and  most  frequently  used  method  of  giving  is 
by  personal  check,  made  payable  to  the  UNCW  Foundation 
or  designated  to  your  area  of  special  interest. 
Securities 

Stock,  bonds,  certificates  of  deposit  and  other  appreciated 
assets  can  provide  significant  tax  savings  for  the  donor 
while  having  a  major  impact  on  the  life  of  the  university. 
If  you  are  considering  a  gift  through  this  manner,  please 
call  the  advancement  office  at  910-962-3170  for  instruc- 
tions on  how  to  transfer  this  gift. 
Property  Gifts 

Many  donors  contribute  their  personal  residences,  land, 
commercial  or  other  property  to  the  UNCW  Foundation. 
Personal  property,  including  art,  books,  furnishings  and 
special  collections,  are  also  accepted  through  the  campus 
collection.  In  most  cases,  these  gifts  are  recorded  at  their 
fair  market  value  as  determined  by  an  appraisal. 
Honorary  and  Memorial  Gifts 

A  gift  to  honor  or  memorialize  a  family  member,  friend  or 
teacher  is  a  very  significant  way  to  recognize  others.  The 
university  sends  a  note  to  the  family  stating  that  a  gift 
has  been  made  in  this  manner. 
Matching  Gifts 

Many  companies  match  gifts  made  by  their  employees  to 
higher  education.  If  your  company  matches  gifts,  please 
include  the  appropriate  matching  gift  form  with  your  gift. 
The  university  will  complete  the  necessary  information 
and  return  it  to  your  human  resources  office  to  generate 
the  matching  gift. 
Life  Insurance 

There  are  two  ways  to  donate  life  insurance  policies.  The 
first  is  by  making  the  UNCW  Foundation  the  owner  and 
beneficiary  of  the  policy,  which  may  provide  an  immediate 
or  ongoing  income  tax  deduction.  The  second  way  is  by 
naming  the  UNCW  Foundation  the  beneficiary  of  a  current 
policy. 

Planned  Gifts  and  Life  Income  Plans 
The  UNCW  Foundation  or  the  university  may  be  named  as 
beneficiary  in  your  will  or  trust.  Life  income  plans  such  as 
charitable  gift  annuities  and  unitrusts  may  provide  attrac- 
tive options  to  the  donor  in  the  form  of  current  income, 
tax  wise  benefits  and  estate  planning,  while  providing  for 
a  future  gift.  The  donor  transfers  assets  such  as  cash,  se- 
curities or  property  to  the  foundation  or  to  the  university. 
In  exchange,  the  donor  or  designated  beneficiary  receives 
specified  income  benefits  for  life  or  a  fixed  term  of  years. 
Donors  are  encouraged  to  consult  their  financial  advisers 
when  considering  a  planned  gift. 
Pledges 

Major  gifts  may  be  pledged  and  completed  over  a  period  of 
time.  Pledges  for  annual  gifts  are  due  by  June  30  each  year.

tions  is  most  valuable  if  the  threat  is  known  prior  to 
the  attack.  However,  he  concedes  that  terrorists  sel- 
dom give  forewarning. 

"How  quickly  the  unit  can  respond  will  depend  on  the 
type  of  biological  or  chemical  agent,"  said  Malone.  He 
added  that  certain  agents  are  most  harmful  when  initially 
used,  while  others  have  more  long-term  consequences. 

"CBIRF's  strength  is  our  ability  to  provide  definitive 
analysis  of  the  chemical  or  biological  agent  and  offer 
medical  expertise  and  the  best  treatment  strategies  to 
local  first  responders,  such  as  police,  fire  and  rescue  per- 
sonnel," he  said. 

Since  CBIRF's  inception  on  April  4,  1996,  the  unit  has 
been  pre-staged  at  the  Olympics  in  Atlanta,  the 
President's  State  of  the  Union  Address  and  the  Sum- 
mit of  Eight  in  Denver.  Malone  said  CBIRF  will  con- 
tinue to  be  staged  at  "tier  one"  events  considered 
important  to  national  security  or  with  significant  na- 
tional prestige. 

While  his  work  with  CBIRF  involves  travel  throughout 
the  world,  Malone  said  he  enjoys  returning  to  Camp  Le- 
jeune.  "I  love  being  on  the  East  Coast,"  said  Malone,  a 
native  of  Laguna  Beach,  Calif. 

Following  graduation,  Malone  returned  to  his  home- 
town briefly,  taking  a  position  with  the  Floure  Corp.,  a 
design  consultant  firm  which  recruited  him  during  his 
junior  year.  Two  months  later,  Malone  left  the  busi- 
ness world  because  "I  didn't  like  wearing  a  suit  and 
tie,  and  the  job  wasn't  challenging."  Following  the 
path  of  his  stepfather,  a  retired  U.S.  Marine  Corps  of- 
ficer, Malone  enlisted,  was  accepted  in  the  Officers 
Candidate  Program  and  upon  completion  was  com- 
missioned as  a  second  lieutenant  April  15,  1983. 

Unlike  his  previous  job,  Malone  said  his  new  career  has 
"presented  a  challenge  every  day  of  my  life  for  16  years."  In 
meeting  these  challenges,  Malone  said  he's  been  able  to  rely 
on  his  undergraduate  degree  in  psychology. 

"In  college,  you  wonder  if  you  will  ever  have  the  opportu- 
nity to  practice  your  college  major.  Starting  out  as  a  rifle 
company  commander,  I  was  responsible  for  the  well-being 
and  actions  of  160  Marines  and  sailors.  I  think  I've  done 
more  counseling  than  professionals  with  Ph.D.'s  when  it 
comes  to  large  populations."  Malone  said  his  ability  to 
handle  these  counseling  situations  resulted  from  his  educa- 
tion at  UNCW,  as  well  as  the  structured  environment  of  be- 
ing an  athlete. 

Originally  recruited  for  UNCW's  water  polo  team,  which 
never  materialized,  Malone  was  a  member  of  Coach  Dave 
Allen's  swim  team  for  four  years,  a  team  which  included  All- 
American  Sam  O'Leary  '83. 

Being  used  to  the  fast-paced  life  of  Southern  California,  Ma- 


Marines  and  sailors  from  the  Chemical  and  Biological  Response  Force  tested  their 
response  to  a  mock  terrorist  attack  this  summer  at  UNCW. 


lone  said  his  arrival  in  Wilmington  was  a  culture  shock,  but 
a  pleasant  one.  "When  I  came  to  UNCW  there  were  about 
3,000  students,"  said  Malone.  "I  lived  in  Hewlett,  one  of 
only  three  residence  halls  at  the  time,  and  I  was  the  only 
athlete  from  California.  In  fact,  I  think  I  was  the  only  stu- 
dent from  California." 

Malone  said  being  from  out  of  state,  as  were  many  of  his  fel- 
low athletes,  "We  were  the  hellions  of  the  campus.  Coming 
into  a  new  environment,  we  made  the  most  of  our  time  at 
UNCW."  However,  Malone  said  academics  were  not  for- 
saken. "Coach  Allen  stressed  academics  and  the  importance 
of  getting  a  degree." 

Coming  to  UNCW  "was  a  blessing,"  said  Malone,  especially 
because  he  met  his  future  wife  Cindy  Barrineau  '85.  "Cindy 
has  been  very  supportive  of  everything  I've  done,"  said 
Malone.  The  couple  wed  in  1987  and  have  three  children, 
nine-year-old  twins,  Morgan  and  Zachary,  a  girl  and  a  boy, 
and  three-year-old  Hannah. 

Phillip  Brown  is  a  media  specialist  with  UNCW  University  Rela- 
tions and  is  editor  of  the  Campus  Communique.

'Hog'  heaven 

Williams  rides  wave  of  success  with  Harley-Davidson 


By  Marybeth  K.  Bianchi 

He  started  out  wanting  to  be  a 
pharmacist,  then  switched  to 
accounting  and  finally  settled  on 
business  management. 

That  degree  which  Bob  Williams  received 
from  UNCW  in  1977  has  since  paid  off 
handsomely. 

The  44-year-old  is  now  the  owner  of  Cape 
Fear  Harley-Davidson  in  Fayetteville  af- 
ter successfully  pursuing  other  business 
and  investment  opportunities  in  the  area. 

"I  had  never  been  on  a  Harley  until  I 
bought  the  business  (in  1993),"  Williams 
said.  "Then  1  realized  the  tremendous 
wave  Harley-Davidson  was  on." 

The  American-owned  motorcycle  com- 
pany, now  celebrating  its  95"1  anniver- 
sary, nearly  went  bankrupt  in  the 
early- 1980s.  But  after  becoming  a  pub- 
licly-traded business  in  1986,  the  tide 
turned.  The  bike,  considered  a  trademark 
of  the  rough-riding,  leather-garbed,  tat- 
tooed tough  guys,  is  now  popular  with 
lawyers,  doctors  and  others  looking  for  a 
way  to  escape  everyday  stresses. 


UNCW  Alumnus  Bob  Williams  rides  his  95th  ann 
lavidson  to  work  at  his  Fayetteville  business. 


"It's  pretty  much  of  a  turnaround  com- 
pared to  what  you'd  think  of  in  the  60s 
and  70s,"  Williams  said.  "There  are  rid- 
ers from  all  walks  of  life,  and  it's  usually 
an  easy  crowd  to  get  along  with." 

"No  one  really  knows"  why  the  bike's 
popularity  has  surged  in  the  1990s,  Wil- 
liams said,  but  he  has  profited  from  the 
resurgence  and  is  now  the  third  largest 
dealer  in  the  Carolinas.  With  an  original 
allocation  of  127  bikes  in  1993,  Williams 
now  gets  more  than  220  bikes  to  sell  a 
year. 

It's  one  of  those  bikes  -  a  1999  Harley- 
Davidson  Sportster  XLH  883  -  he  has  do- 
nated to  the  UNCW  Alumni  Association. 
The  association  hopes  to  raise  about 
$20,000  for  its  programs  and  outreach 
efforts  from  a  raffle.  (See  related  story  on 
page  33.) 

Williams,  originally  from  Goldsboro, 
came  to  UNCW  in  1972  at  the  urging  of 
his  father  who  thought  he  would  do  bet- 
ter at  a  smaller  university;  there  were 
about  1,800  at  UNCW  when  he  enrolled. 
His  first  year  he  lived  in  the  only  dorm  on 
campus  -  Galloway 
Hall,  which  at  the 
time  had  no  name, 
and  then  moved  off 
campus.  He  lettered 
in  golf  three  years. 

Then  "after  staying 
out  of  school  a  se- 
mester and  working 
construction,  I  real- 
ized that  wasn't 
what  I  wanted  to  do 
the  rest  of  my  life," 
Williams  said.  He 
took  a  job  as  a  bar- 
tender at  Cape  Fear 
Country  Club  during 
his  last  year  at 
school.  Upon  gradu- 
ation, an  executive 
with  NCNB  who  Wil- 
liams       routinely 


iversary  edition  Harley- 


waited  on,  wondered  what  the  young 
man  planned  to  do.  "He  asked  if  I'd  like 
to  work  at  a  bank,"  Williams  said. 

"Three  days  later,  I  was  in  Fayetteville, 
working  for  a  bank,"  Williams  said.  His 
job  in  NCNB's  collection  department  for 
eight  months  consisted  mainly  of  repos- 
sessing "cars,  trailers,  grave  sites,  all 
kinds  of  things." 

Then,  in  another  quirk  of  fate,  a  former 
UNCW  summer  school  classmate,  Joe 
Riddle,  offered  Williams  a  job  as  a  book- 
keeper/accountant with  his  family's 
business,  Gates  Four  Golf  and  Country 
Club.  He  worked  his  way  up  to  general 
manager. 

During  his  13  1/2-year  tenure  there,  Wil- 
liams met  and  secretly  dated  the  owner's 
daughter  Sharlene  Riddle,  who  worked 
there  during  the  summers  while  a  stu- 
dent at  the  University  of  North  Carolina 
at  Chapel  Hill.  They  married  in  1984 
shortly  after  she  graduated  and  now  have 
three  children,  R.  J.  V,  10;  Palmer,  8;  and 
Caroline,  5. 

In  early  1992  Williams  left  the  family  busi- 
ness to  pursue  some  private  investments 
while  working  full  time  with  New  York 
Life.  Then  after  being  involved  in  three 
different  jobs,  he  settled  on  the  Harley- 
Davidson  franchise. 

His  plans  include  a  new  building  that  is 
twice  as  big  as  his  current  site  in  Fayetteville 
to  accommodate  not  only  the  increasing 
demand  for  motorcycles,  but  the  growing 
Harley-Davidson  clothing  and  accessory 
inventory  whichhas"increasedby  250  per- 
cent over  the  last  five  years, "  Williams  said. 
"Our  service  department  is  well  known. 
We  have  customers  from  hundreds  of  miles 
around  to  get  high  performance  or  custom 
work  done." 

And,  Williams  is  not  the  only  one  with 
UNCW  loyalties  at  Cape  Fear  Harley- 
Davidson.  General  manager  Richard 
Harding  has  two  children,  Angela  and 
Daniel,  who  are  UNCW  graduates.

AAGA 

This  is  an  exciting  year  for 
AAGA  as  members  make  plans 
to  celebrate  their  10th  year  an- 
niversary at  homecoming  in 
January. 

AAGA  is  also  trying  to  build  its 
membership  base  to  strengthen 
the  chapter.  All  Wilmington 
College  and  UNCW  minority 
alumni  received  an  invitation 
to  join  AAGA's  efforts  and  to 
support  minority  students  at 
UNCW.  Additionally,  a  letter 
from  AAGA  members  Elizabeth 
Johnson  '72  and  Gia  Todd  Long 
'91  was  sent  to  all  Cape  Fear 
area  minority  graduates  en- 
couraging them  to  get  involved 
in  the  chapter's  efforts. 

"The  majority  of  our  minority 
graduates  live  in  and  around 
Wilmington.  If  we  can  get 
them  to  participate  in  our  ef- 
forts, think  of  what  a  positive 
influence  we  can  be  on  the 
young  minority  students  at 
UNCW  today,"  said  Tim 
Kornegay  '89,  AAGA  president. 
In  connection  with  this,  AAGA 
hosted  a  meeting  and  recep- 
tion at  Wise  Alumni  House  on 
October  24  for  local  alumni. 

Cameron  School

The  alumni  association  wel- 
comes its  newest  chapter  to 
the  Seahawk  family.  The  UNCW 
Cameron  School  of  Business 
Alumni  Chapter  gives  business 
alumni  a  link  to  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business,  the  alumni 
association  and  UNCW.  The

The  first-ever  chapter  event 
was  held  in  conjunction  with 
the  Cameron  School  of  Business

mons. Alumni  and  friends 
kicked  up  their  heels  to  great 


food  and  good  music  with  the 
Hewlett's  Creek  Boys  bluegrass 
band.  Later  that  night,  MBA 
and  MSA  alumni  gathered  with 
faculty  and  friends  at  Front

73,  chapter  president,  and  the 
other  officers:  Neal  Leeper  '95,

Alumni  walk  'razor's  edge' 

Several  UNCW  alumni  were  among 
those  recognized  by  UNCW's  Watson 
School  of  Education  with  its  1998  Ra- 
zor Walker  Awards  to  individuals  for 
their  contributions  to  America's  youth. 

"These  individuals  have  taken  per- 
sonal or  professional  risks  and  have 
put  forth  extraordinary  efforts  to  real- 
ize a  vision  that  would  improve  their 
communities.  They  have  walked  the 
'razor's  edge'  where  things  are  not  al- 
ways safe  and  predictable  because 
each  believes  in  a  dream  greater  than 
him  or  herself  that  could  change  the 
lives  of  children,"  said  Dean  Robert  E. 
Tyndall. 

Honorees  included:  Judge  Ernest  B. 
Fullwood  '66,  Janet  B.  Toedt  '77, 
Charles  F.  Green  III  '71,  Dr.  Karen  S. 
Wetherill  '88  and  Robert  F.  Warwick 
'55,  all  of  Wilmington;  Elizabeth 
"Kelly"  Varnadore  '80,  Whiteville;  Leon 
Larson  '90  and  Vicki  Collins  '78,  Jack- 
sonville; Julian  Anderson  '71,  Rocky 
Mount;  Doris  Bryant,  Morehead  City; 
Dr.  Cecil  R.  Reynolds  '75,  Bastrop, 
Texas;  Joe  L.  King  III  '66,  Detroit, 
Mich.;  and  Dr.  Judith  Rhue  '78,  To- 
ledo, Ohio. 

License  plates  aid  students 

Nearly  400  UNCW  alumni  and  friends 
are  "driving  UNCW  students  to  success" 
with  their  Seahawk  license  plates. 

Each  UNCW  Seahawk  collegiate  license 
plate,  purchased  for  $25  through  the 
N.C.  Department  of  Motor  Vehicles, 
helps  deserving  students  get  an  edu- 
cation; $15  of  the  fee  goes  directly  to 
the  UNCW  Alumni  Association's  schol- 
arship program. 

To  obtain  an  application,  call  the 
alumni  relations  office  at  910-962- 
2682  or  1-800-596-2880.

Alumni  participation  sought 


With  our  golden  anniversary  year  be- 
hind us,  we  can  reflect  on  the  accom- 
plishments of  the  first  50  years  and  look 
forward  to  the  years  ahead  to  build  an 
even  stronger  and  more  active  alumni 
base.  To  that  end,  we  have  already  be- 
gun to  work  on  many  projects  and 
events  to  accomplish  that  goal. 

We  also  hope  to  increase  the  awareness 
and  visibility  of  the  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation in  the  community.  It  is  important 
for  us  to  be  visible  and  take  an  active  role 
in  community  projects.  One  way  to  ac- 
complish this  goal  is  for  our  graduates  to 
become  more  involved  in  community 
service  through  volunteer  opportunities. 
UNCW  alumni  do  make  a  difference  in 
our  community  and  others.  Let  us  know 
your  ideas  for  public  service. 

In  addition,  we  need  to  reenergize  ex- 
isting alumni  chapters  and  continue  to 
develop  new  chapters.  Active  chapters 
offer  opportunities  for  alumni  to  join 


together  in  meaningful 
and  fun  activities.  By 
reaching  out  to  current 
UNCW  students  and  in- 
volving them  in  alumni- 
sponsored  programs  we 
hope  to  encourage  active 
future  alumni.

To  be  successful,  we  need 
your  continued  support.  We  welcome 
and  solicit  your  participation  in  what- 
ever way  you  are  able  to  help.  Whether 
you  make  a  monetary  contribution  or 
volunteer  with  special  projects,  you  are 
the  reason  that  the  UNCW  Alumni  As- 
sociation exists.  Let's  work  together  to 
make  the  UNCW  Alumni  Association 
the  best  it  can  be.  I  am  open  to  your 
suggestions  to  move  the  association 
forward  into  the  next  millennium. 

With  alumni  spirit, 


Donor  goal  raised  to  20  percent 


Corcoran  '72 


It  was  indeed  a  banner 
year  for  the  University  of 
North  Carolina  at  Wilm- 
ington and  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association.  Be- 
cause of  your  support  we 
have  stretched  our  50- 
year-old  wings  and 
soared.  As  alumni  and 
friends  of  the  university,  we  are  poised 
to  further  strengthen  UNCW's  place  in 
the  region,  state  and  nation  through  our 
special  support. 

The  UNCW  Alumni  Association's  mis- 
sion is  to  "promote,  encourage  and  sup- 
port unity  and  involvement  among  our 
alumni,  students,  the  university  and 
friends."  We  seek  to  accomplish  this  by 
bringing  together  our  various  constitu- 
encies in  meaningful  and  pleasing 
events,  activities  and  special  efforts. 

We  measure  our  success  in  various 
ways  -  attendance,  volunteer  strength, 
goodwill  generated,  anticipation  of  fu- 
ture events  and  financial  support  given 
back  to  UNCW.  Last  year,  13  percent  of 
our  alumni  gave  financial  donations  to 
UNCW  which  totaled  $472,266.03.  This 
figure  represents  2,869  alumni  donors. 


We  want  to  surpass  that  mark.  The 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  has  set  a 
goal  for  a  20  percent  participation  rate 
of  our  alumni  base  by  the  end  of  2003. 

We  are  proud  to  be  one  of  the  top  10 
public  universities  in  the  south.  Our 
improved  alumni  participation  rate  will 
help  us  ease  up  the  chart  in  rankings 
and  UNCW  in  the  public  eye.  We  can 
truly  make  a  difference  here. 

The  association  is  here  to  serve  the  uni- 
versity and  our  alumni  base  of  approxi- 
mately 27,000.  Through  university 
special  events,  alumni  chapter  activi- 
ties, board  initiatives  and  the  athletic 
arena  we  create  interest  in  UNCW,  en- 
joy camaraderie  and  rekindle  the  Sea- 
hawk  spirit  that  inspired  us  while  we 
were  students  here. 

Please  give  back  financially  to  UNCW 
and  assist  us  as  we  continue  to  improve 
our  university's  recognition.  As  alumni 
who  have  distinguished  themselves 
both  personally  and  professionally  — 
you  can  help  ensure  UNCW's  growth 
and  renown.

Although  he  normally  spends  all  of  his 
time  behind  the  scenes,  producer/ 
production  manager  David  Hartley  '84 
poses  with  the  Capeside  High  School 
sign  at  the  south  entrance  to  Alderman

The  former  communication  studies  major 
is  often  back  on  campus  with  the  show's 
crew  and  cast.  In  April  he  was  the

Frank  Trimble  said  Hartley  was  among

UNCW  popular  among  college  applicants 


Although  UNCW  expects  overall 
enrollment  to  increase  byjust  1 00 
students  above  last  year's  total, 
the  number  who  would  like  to 
study  at  UNCW  has  jumped  11.1 
percent,  the  largest  increase  in 
the  UNC  system. 

Fifty-five  percent  of  the  7,806 
freshman  applications  submitted 
have  been  accepted  for  admis- 
sion, and  approximately  1,600 
freshmen  will  be  enrolled  in  the 
fall.  Applications  are  also  up  for 
transfer,  international,  minority 
and  out-of-state  students. 

SAT  scores  of  accepted  fresh- 
men are  up  over  last  year's  aver- 
age, to  an  all-time  high  of  1 ,  105. 
Of  all  applications  submitted. 
3.5  percent  came  in  over  the 
World  Wide  Web. 
Jim  Walters,  directorof  admis- 
sions, attributes  the  increase 
in  applications  to  the  growing 
academic  reputation  of  the 
university. 

"Applications  come  to  us  because 


UNCW  is  a  mid-sized  university 
with  a  coastal  location  whose  fo- 
cus is  on  the  undergraduate  stu- 
dent and  quality  education," 
Walters  said. 

UNCWpaved  the  way  for  on-line 
applications  by  being  first  in  the 
UNC  system  to  offer  students  the 
alternative  of  completing  an  elec- 
tronic application  and  paying  the 
application  fee  over  the  Internet. 

UNCW  introduced  SEAWEB  to 
the  registration  process  in  Sep- 
tember 1998.  SEAWEB  is  the  com- 
bination of  Plus  2000,  the  on-line 
application  program,  and  the 


ability  to  pay  on-line.  This  pro- 
gram enables  students  to  regis- 
ter for  classes,  check  schedules 
and  access  grades  from  the  web. 
Security  is  assured  by  coding  in- 
formation and  restricted  access 
by  personal  access  codes. 
SEAWEB  will  be  an  alternative, 
not  a  replacement  for  the  cur- 
rently used  phone  registration 
system,  SEAL1NE.

"Projected  by  the  UNCW  Office  of  Institutional  Research  for  Fall  1999 


With  growth,  space  limits  cause  concern 


Continued  growth  of  the  student 
body  -  projected  to  rise  by  2,857 
by  2008  -  will  maintain  UNCW's 
status  as  the  state's  fastest  grow- 
ing university;  over  the  last  five 
years  enrollment  has  grown  12.9 
percent. 

New  degrees  offered 

Several  newdegree  programs  will 
be  offered  at  UNCW  beginning 
this  fall. 

At  the  undergraduate  level  they 
include  bachelor  of  arts  degrees 
in  athletic  training,  studio  art, 
special  education-mental  retar- 
dation, therapeutic  recreation 
and  art  history,  and  bachelor  of 
music  degree  in  music  perfor- 
mance. New  graduate  programs 
include  master  of  arts  degrees  in 
critical  literacy  and  liberal  stud- 
ies. A  certificate  program  will  be 
offered  in  gerontology. 


Ironically,  UNCW  is  also  the  uni- 
versity with  the  smallest  amount 
of  academic  space  for  its  students 
-  less  than  600,000  square  feet.  It 
has  more  students  per  square  foot 
of  usable  space  than  any  other 
university  in  the  system. 

However,  the  university  is  mov- 
ing fast  to  alleviate  that  problem. 
Bob  Walton,  vice  chancellor  for 
business  affairs,  told  trustees  in 
April  that  according  to  current 
plans,  UNCW  will  be  spending 
$125  million  over  the  next  five 
years  for  construction  and  reno- 
vation projects.  These  include  the 
student  recreation  center  which 
is  under  construction,  plus  a  $8.5 
million  classroom  building  next 
to  Morton  Hall  that  will  go  out  for 
bid  later  this  year;  a  new  school  of 
education,  fundingfor  which  was 
introduced  to  the  N.C.  General  As- 
sembly in  April;  a  sports  medicine 


facility;  two  new  student  resi- 
dences; an  addition  to  the  union 
and  a  performing  arts  center. 

Construction  of  the  $17.5  million 
marine  science  center  at  Myrtle 
Grove  will  be  complete  in  late 
summer.  Construction  of  the  pro- 
gram support  building  connect- 
ing Hewlett  and  Graham  halls  will 
be  finished  by  December. 

A  study  by  consultant  Eva  Klein, 
conducted  to  determine  the 
needs  of  North  Carolina's  16state 
universities,  revealed  the  need  for 
$6.9  billion  for  new  construction 
and  renovation.  UNCW  is  in  an 
excellent  position  to  grow  but 
lacks  the  facilities  needed  to  ex- 
pand beyond  the  current  levels. 
Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  told 
trustees  the  state  will  have  to  con- 
sider new  ways  of  financing  con- 
struction and  renovation  if  these 
needs  are  to  be  met. 


Documentary  airs 
May  26  on  UNC-TV 

Currents  of  Hope:  Reclaiming  the 
Neuse,  UNCW's  newest  docu- 
mentary, will  air  statewide  on 
UNC-TV,  North  Carolina  Public 
Television,  at  8  p.m.  May  26. 

Narrated  by  Chancellor  James  R. 
Leutze,  the  one-hour  show  draws 
attention  to  the  plight  of  the 
Neuse,  emphasizing  the  positive 
work  being  done  through  public- 
private  partnerships  to  clean  up 
the  basin,  reclaim  an  important 
public  trust  and  inspire  hope  that 
smart  science  and  informed  citi- 
zen action  can  make  a  difference 
for  the  better. 

Copies  of  the  video  will  be  available 
for  purchase  later  this  summer. 

50th  celebration 
gets  CASE  award 

The  Division  for  University  Ad- 
vancement received  a  special 
merit  award  from  the  Council  for 
the  Advancement  and  Support  of 
Education  (CASE)  in  February  for 
UNCW's  year-long  golden  anni- 
versary observance. 

"UNCWCelebrating50  Years"  was 
recognized  in  the  Institutional  Re- 
lations Project  Category;  itwasone 
of  42  entries  in  the  CASE  District 
III  competition.  Mimi  Cunning- 
ham and  Tyrone  Rowell,  cochairs, 
and  Nadya  Labib,  coordinator, 
were  honored. 

Gallery  dedicated 
to  Claude  Howell 

The  newly  established  gallery  in 
Kenan  Hall  was  dedicated  in  Oc- 
tober to  the  late  Wilmington  art- 
ist Claude  Howell. 

Howell  created  the  art  depart- 
ment at  Wilmington  College  in 
1953  and  retired  28  years  later  as 
professor  emeritus. 

A  bust  of  the  artist  by  Stephen 
Smith,  a  student  of  Howell's,  was 
a  gift  to  the  university  from  St. 
John's  Museum  of  Art.

Creative  writing  is  among 
new  college  departments 


Creative  writing  is  now  a  free- 
standing department  in  the  Col- 
lege of  Arts  and  Sciences,  and 
Mark  Cox  is  the  department  chair. 

This  change  is  consistent  with 
recent  efforts  to  create  more  spe- 
cialized programs  throughout  the 
College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  al- 
lowing such  programs  to  flourish 
and  thrive.  Computer  science 
and  social  work  are  now  inde- 
pendent departments,  and  crimi- 
nal justice  has  been  added  to  the 
former  Department  of  Sociology 
and  Anthropology. 

Philip  Furia,  who  served  as  in- 
terim chair  of  creative  writing 


point  where  it  can  take  its  place 
among  nationally  distinguished 
programs,"  said  Dean  Jo  Ann 
Seiple.  Cox  comes  from  Okla- 
homa University  where  he  was 
director  of  creative  writing  and 
an  associate  professor.  He  is  the 
author  of  two  books  of  poems, 
Thirty-Seven  Years  from  theStone 
and  Smoulder. 

Nottingham  director 
of  minority  affairs 

Joanne  Nottingham  of  the 
Watson  School  of  Education 
was  named  director  of  minor- 
ity  affairs.

1999  graduates  leave  patio  garden  as  legacy 

Seniors  who  graduated  last  summer  and  December  and  those  graduat- 
ing in  May  contributed  to  this  year's  senior  class  gift.  The  Eaton  Plaza

Warwick  honored  with  center  naming 


UNCW  honored  Robert  F.  War- 
wick April  18  for  his  dedication 
to  the  university.  Formerly 
known  as  the  University  Center, 
the  building  which  houses  the 
post  office,  game  room  and  ball- 
room was  renamed  in  his  honor. 

Warwick  is  a  local  leader  in  the 
corporate  and  educational  fields 
and  has  actively  contributed  to 
UNCW  and  surrounding  com- 
munity for  25  years.  He  has 
served  on  the  UNCW  alumni 
board,  foundation  board,  Sea- 
hawk Club  board  and  board  of 
trustees  and  is  now  on  the  UNC 
Board  of  Governors.  The  naming 
was  announced  in  May  1998; 
however,  the  official  dedication 
didn't  take  place  until  this  spring. 

Carolyn  Farley,  director  of  the 
University  Union,  said,  "It  is  sig- 
nificant that  the  board  of  trust- 
ees selected  a  student  facility  for 
this  honor.  As  the  center  of  our 
university's  community,  the 
Warwick  Center  embodies  many 


of  the  things  for  which  Mr.  War- 
wick stands.  Mr.  Warwick's  com- 
mitment to  UNCW  and  the  larger 
Wilmington  community  are  re- 
flected in  the  types  of  activities 
that  are  hosted  in  the  center  each 
year." 

Seahawk  sculpture 
to  bring  good  luck 

The  product  of  the  largest  stu- 
dent contribution  for  a  single 
project  is  expected  to  land  on 
campus  this  summer.  A  $38,000 
four-foot  bronze  sculpture  of  a 
seahawk  will  perch  atop  a  four- 
foot  granite  stone  in  front  of  the 
Warwick  Center.  The  sculpture 
was  designed  and  created  by  lo- 
cal sculptor  Joe  Orlando,  who 
sculpted,  among  other  things,  a 
bust  of  Mother  Teresa  for  the 
Vatican.  It  is  rumored  that  a  to- 
ken of  luck  has  been  planted  in 
the  right  claw  of  the  seahawk, 
bestowing  good  fortune  to  any- 
one who  rubs  the  bird's  claw.

UNCW  Magazine 


UNCW  popular  among  college  applicants 


Although  UNCW  expects  overall 
enrollment  to  increase  byjust  1 00 
students  above  last  year's  total, 
the  number  who  would  like  to 
study  at  UNCW  has  jumped  11.1 
percent,  the  largest  increase  in 
the  UNC  system. 

Fifty-five  percent  of  the  7,806 
freshman  applications  submitted 
have  been  accepted  for  admis- 
sion, and  approximately  1,600 
freshmen  will  be  enrolled  in  the 
fall.  Applications  are  also  up  for 
transfer,  international,  minority 
and  out-of-state  students. 

SAT  scores  of  accepted  fresh- 
men are  up  over  last  year's  aver- 
age, to  an  all-time  high  of  1,105. 
Of  all  applications  submitted, 
3.5  percent  came  in  over  the 
World  Wide  Web. 

Jim  Walters,  directorof  admis- 
sions, attributes  the  increase 
in  applications  to  the  growing 
academic  reputation  of  the 
university. 

"Applications  come  to  us  because 


UNCW  is  a  mid-sized  university 
with  a  coastal  location  whose  fo- 
cus is  on  the  undergraduate  stu- 
dent and  quality  education," 
Walters  said. 

UNCWpaved  the  way  for  on-line 
applications  by  being  first  in  the 
UNC  system  to  offer  students  the 
alternative  of  completingan  elec- 
tronic application  and  paying  the 
application  fee  over  the  Internet. 

UNCW  introduced  SEAWEB  to 
the  registration  process  in  Sep- 
tember 1998.  SEAWEB  is  thecom- 
bination  of  Plus  2000,  the  on-line 
application  program,  and  the 


ability  to  pay  on-line.  This  pro- 
gram enables  students  to  regis- 
ter for  classes,  check  schedules 
and  access  grades  from  the  web. 
Security  is  assured  by  coding  in- 
formation and  restricted  access 
by  personal  access  codes. 
SEAWEB  will  be  an  alternative, 
not  a  replacement  for  the  cur- 
rently used  phone  registration 
system,  SEALINE.

With  growth,  space  limits  c 


Continued  growth  of  the  student 
body  -  projected  to  rise  by  2,857 
by  2008  -  will  maintain  UNCW's 
status  as  the  state's  fastest  grow- 
ing university;  over  the  last  five 
years  enrollment  has  grown  12.9 
percent. 

New  degrees  offered 

Several  new  degree  programs  will 
be  offered  at  UNCW  beginning 
this  fall. 

At  the  undergraduate  level  they 
include  bachelor  of  arts  degrees 
in  athletic  training,  studio  art, 
special  education-mental  retar- 
dation, therapeutic  recreation 
and  art  history,  and  bachelor  of 
music  degree  in  music  perfor- 
mance. New  graduate  programs 
include  master  of  arts  degrees  in 
critical  literacy  and  liberal  stud- 
ies. A  certificate  program  will  be 
offered  in  gerontology. 


Ironically,  UNCW  is  also  the  uni- 
versity with  the  smallest  amount 
of  academic  space  for  its  students 
-  less  than  600,000  square  feet.  It 
has  more  students  per  square  foot 
of  usable  space  than  any  other 
university  in  the  system. 

However,  the  university  is  mov- 
ing fast  to  alleviate  that  problem. 
Bob  Walton,  vice  chancellor  for 
business  affairs,  told  trustees  in 
April  that  according  to  current 
plans,  UNCW  will  be  spending 
$125  million  over  the  next  five 
years  for  construction  and  reno- 
vation projects.  These  include  the 
student  recreation  center  which 
is  under  construction,  plus  a  $8.5 
million  classroom  building  next 
to  Morton  Hall  that  will  go  out  for 
bid  later  this  year;  a  new  school  of 
education,  funding  for  which  was 
introduced  to  the  N.C.  General  As- 
sembly in  April;  a  sports  medicine

A  study  by  consultant  Eva  Klein,

excellent  position  to  grow  but 
lacks  the  facilities  needed  to  ex-

Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  told 
trustees  the  state  will  have  to  con-

struction and  renovation  if  these 
needs  are  to  be  met.

Spring/Summer  1999 


Creative  writing  is  among 
new  college  departments 


Creative  writing  is  now  a  free- 
standing department  in  the  Col- 
lege of  Arts  and  Sciences,  and 
MarkCox  is  the  department  chair. 

This  change  is  consistent  with 
recent  efforts  to  create  more  spe- 
cialized programs  throughout  the 
College  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  al- 
lowing such  programs  to  flourish 
and  thrive.  Computer  science 
and  social  work  are  now  inde- 
pendent departments,  and  crimi- 
nal justice  has  been  added  to  the 
former  Department  of  Sociology 
and  Anthropology. 

Philip  Furia,  who  served  as  in- 
terim chair  of  creative  writing 
during  the  transition,  estimated 
that  one  third  of  all  English  ma- 
jors follow  the  creative  writing 
track.  This  spring60  graduate  stu- 
dents were  enrolled  in  the  Mas- 
ter of  Fine  Arts  in  Creative  Writing 
Program,  which  was  highlighted 
in  the  March  1999  issue  of  Our 
State  Magazine. 

Although  a  distinction  will  be 
made,  the  creative  writing  de- 
partment will  retain  its  affiliation 
with  the  English  Department  and 
will  move  to  the  new  classroom 
building  to  be  shared  by  UNCW- 
TV,  the  film  studies  and  commu- 
nication studies  programs. 

"Mark  (Cox)  is  taking  over  our 
creative  writing  program  at  a 


point  where  it  can  take  its  place 
among  nationally  distinguished 
programs,"  said  Dean  lo  Ann 
Seiple.  Cox  comes  from  Okla- 
homa University  where  he  was 
director  of  creative  writing  and 
an  associate  professor.  He  is  the 
author  of  two  books  of  poems, 
Thirty-Seven  Years  from  theStone 
and  Smoulder. 

Nottingham  director 
of  minority  affairs 

Joanne  Nottingham  of  the 
Watson  School  of  Education 
was  named  director  of  minor- 
ity affairs. 
She  was  direc- 
tor of  minority 
student  affairs 
at  the  Univer- 
sity of  Miami  at 
Coral  Gables 
and  has  experi- 
ence in  teach- 
ing, advising 
and  the  design  and  adminis- 
tration of  student  services  and 
programs. 

Denis  Carter,  associate  provost 
for  enrollment  affairs,  is  de- 
lighted with  the  recent  appoint- 
ment of  Nottingham,  who  is 
recognized  by  students  as  an 
approachable,  knowledgeable 
and  helpful  teacher.

Warwick  honored  with  center  naming 


UNCW  honored  Robert  F.  War- 
wick April  18  for  his  dedication 
to  the  university.  Formerly 
known  as  the  University  Center, 
the  building  which  houses  the 
post  office,  game  room  and  ball- 
room was  renamed  in  his  honor. 

Warwick  is  a  local  leader  in  the 
corporate  and  educational  fields 
and  has  actively  contributed  to 
UNCW  and  surrounding  com- 
munity for  25  years.  He  has 
served  on  the  UNCW  alumni 
board,  foundation  board,  Sea- 
hawk Club  board  and  board  of 
trustees  and  is  now  on  the  UNC 
Board  of  Governors.  The  naming 
was  announced  in  May  1998; 
however,  the  official  dedication 
didn't  take  place  until  this  spring. 

Carolyn  Farley,  director  of  the 
University  Union,  said,  "It  is  sig- 
nificant that  the  board  of  trust- 
ees selected  a  student  facility  for 
this  honor.  As  the  center  of  our 
university's  community,  the 
Warwick  Center  embodies  many 


of  the  things  for  which  Mr.  War- 
wick stands.  Mr.  Warwick's  com- 
mitment to  UNCW  and  the  larger 
Wilmington  community  are  re- 
flected in  the  types  of  activities 
that  are  hosted  in  the  center  each 
year. " 

Seahawk  sculpture 
to  bring  good  luck 

The  product  of  the  largest  stu- 
dent contribution  for  a  single 
project  is  expected  to  land  on 
campus  this  summer.  A  $38,000 
four-foot  bronze  sculpture  of  a 
seahawk  will  perch  atop  a  four- 
foot  granite  stone  in  trout  (it  the 
Warwick  Center.  The  sculpture 
was  designed  and  created  by  lo- 
cal sculptor  Joe  Orlando,  who 
sculpted,  among  other  things,  a 
bust  of  Mother  Teresa  for  the 
Vatican.  It  is  rumored  that  a  to- 
ken of  luck  has  been  planted  in 
the  right  claw  of  the  seahawk, 
bestowing  good  fortune  to  any- 
one who  rubs  the  bird's  claw.

Plaque  honors  student  leaders 


Through  the  generosity  of  Tim 
Smith,  owner  of  4  Seasons  Trophy 
Shop  in  Wilmington,  a  bronze 
plaque  now  graces  one  of  the  arch- 
ways within  the  University  Union. 

It  commemorates  the  Student 
Leader  Reunion,  which  was  held 
during  UNCW's  50th  Anniversary 
Celebration.  The  reunion  was 
planned  by  the  Division  of  Student 


Affairs  to  honor  die  first  50  years  of 
student  leadership  at  the  university. 

The  plaque  will  provide  a  perma- 
nent reminder  of  the  accomplish- 
ments of  past  campus  leaders  in 
the  building  where  current  stu- 
dent leaders  preside  over  the  ac- 
tivities of  the  present  day  campus. 
It  is  mounted  on  the  entry  hallway 
wall  near  the  University  Union's 
main  display  case. 


Student  leader  scholarship  endowed 


This  spring  the  Leadership  Cen- 
ter is  awarding  its  first  endowed 
scholarship,  the  Margaret 
Walthour  Lippitt  Scholarship. 
Covering  tuition  and  fees,  it  will 
be  given  annually  to  the  indi- 
vidual recognized  as  UNCW's 
New  Student  Leader.  The  schol- 
arship recognizes  devotion  to 
organizational  or  departmental 
goals  and  ideals,  service  as  a 
role  model  for  other  students 
and  service  to  the  campus  or 


community. 

The  scholarship  is  named  for  a 
woman  who  lived  in  Wilmington 
at  the  turn  of  the  century,  but 
who  travelled  widely.  An  accom- 
plished artist,  she  was  constantly 
studying  and  teaching  her  craft 
while  creating  exceptional  land- 
scapes, still  life  and  portraits. 
Both  this  scholarship  and  an  ear- 
lier one  in  memory  of  Devereux 
Lippitt,  her  husband,  were  es- 
tablished by  family  members. 


House  dedicated  to  Brunsons 


The  late  LawTence  "Buck"  and 
Hattie  Brunson  are  the  first 
UNCW  staff  members  to  be  hon- 
ored by  havinga  university  build- 
ing named  for  them. 

Dedicated  on  April  15,  the  Brun- 
son House  was  purchased  from 
the  couple's  granddaughter, 
Veronica  McLaurin  Brown  72 
and  herhusband,  Carl.  More  than 
50  family  members  gathered  with 
current  and  former  university 
employees  to  share  their  memo- 
ries of  the  Brunsons  duringapro- 


gram  led  by  Brown  and  Ralph 
Parker,  retired  director  of  minor- 
ity affairs. 

The  Brunson  House  is  located  at 
1700  Princess  Street,  adjacent  to 
the  university-owned  Kenan 
House  and  Wise  Alumni  House. 
It  is  used  as  a  guesthouse  for  vis- 
iting professors. 

The  Brunsons  had  more  than  27 
years  of  combined  service  work- 
ing in  the  UNCW  Housekeeping 
Department. 


50  area  and  state  leaders 
named  to  board  of  visitors 


UNCW  established  its  first  board 
of  visitors  which  now  has  50 
members. 

The  visitors  are  influential  civic, 
corporate  and  philanthropic 
leaders  who  will  meet  twice  a 
year.  They  will  provide  direct  ad- 
vice to  the  chancellor  and  the 
board  of  trustees  on  such  issues 
as  recruiting,  UNCW's  regional 
image,  potential  contributions 
and  politics. 

The  board  of  visitors  is  expected 
to  enhance  the  functions  of  the 
university  and  aid  in  the  refine- 
ment of  the  UNCW  image.

Five  inducted 
to  hall  of  fame 

The  second  class  of  inductees  to 
the  UNCW  Athletic  Hall  of  Fame 
was  recognized  in  lanuary.  Sandy 
Dew  accepted  the  award  for  the 
late  T.  Eugene  Dew  '69,  a  success- 
ful petroleum  businessman  who 
helped  UNCW's  first  athletic  di- 
rector, William  J.  Brooks,  build  the 
program.  David  K.  Miller  '62,  a 
second  baseman,  ignited  UNCW's 
national  championship  run  in 
1961  andhelpedtheSeahawks  fin- 
ish second  in  1962.  He  played 
briefly  with  the  New  York  Mets 
before  coming  to  UNCW  where 
he  has  worked  since  1965.  Amy  S. 
lackson  '93  of  Denver,  Colo.,  a 
standout  for  the  cross-country 
and  track  and  field  teams  in  the 
early  1990s  and  three-time  CAA 
scholar  athlete,  was  the  youngest 
inductee.  Local  physician  and  phi- 
lanthropist William  P.  Nixon,  Jr. 
was  honored  for  his  numerous 
contributions  to  UNCW  athletics 
including  his  active  involvement 
in  the  Seahawk  Club.  The  athletic 
department's  base  of  operations 
is  named  in  his  honor.  One  of  the 
university's  staunchest  support- 
ers for  more  than  40  years,  Estell 
C.  Lee  '55  was  honored  for  her 
many  contributions  as  a  volun- 
teer and  financial  supporter  to 
athletics  and  the  university  as  a 
whole. 

Athletics  director  search 

UNCW  is  getting  a  head  start  on 
the  time-consuming  task  of 
searching  for  a  new  athletics  di- 
rector to  replace  Paul  Miller  who 
will  retire  when  his  contract  ex- 
pires June  30,  2000. 

"Searches  for  athletic  directors 
can  often  take  a  year  or  more," 
said  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze. 
"By  starting  early,  UNCW  will 
have  a  chance  to  look  at  candi- 
dates available  this  spring  as  well 
as  those  seeking  a  change  next 
year." 

The  UNCW  athletic  program  has 
made  significant  improvements 
under  Miller's  leadership  since 


UNCW  Hall  of  Fame  inductees  were  (from  left)  Sandy  Dew  for  T.  Eugene  Dew,  David  K.  Miller,  Amy  5.  Jackson, 
William  P.  Nixon,  Jr.  and  Estell  Lee. 


June  1991.  UNCWhas  five  Colo- 
nial Athletic  Association  cham- 
pionships, and  athletes  have 
outstanding  grade  point  aver- 
ages and  have  consistently  led 
the  UNC  system  in  student  ath- 
lete graduation  rates  for  the  past 
three  years. 

Three-time  CAA  champions 

The  men's  track  and  field  team 
won  its  third  straight  CAA  cham- 
pionship in  April.  The  Seahawks 
took  first  place  in  five  field  events 
to  beat  second-place  William  and 
Mary  150  to  122.5. 

Swimmers  defend  title 

The  UNCW  women's  swimming 
and  diving  teams  defended  their 
CAA  title  with  a  1 6 1  -point  victory 
over  James  Madison  University 
and  placed  second  in  the  Eastern 
Collegiate  Athletic  Conference 
Championships. 

In  the  CAA  championships,  the 
women  set  1 1  school  records  and 
three  CAA  records  in  the  400  med  - 
ley  relay,  200  medley  relay  and 
400  individual  medley  (Adrienne 
Sutton).  School  records  were  set 
by  freshman  Amy  Sands,  sopho- 
more Kate  Milling,  junior 
Adrienne  Sutton,  senior  Hayden 
Maxwell,  and  all  three  relay 
teams. 

Coach  Dave  Allen  was  named 
1999  Women's  Coach-of-the- 
Year.  The  team  captured  1 1  of  20 
events  and  four  of  five  relays. 


Simmons,  Donlon  honored 

Although  the  Seahawks  lost  an 
overtime  heartbreaker,  58-56,  in 
the  semifinals  of  the  CAA  tourna- 
ment to  the  eventual  conference 
champion  George  Mason  Uni- 
versity, two  team  members  were 
recognized  for  their  efforts. 

Stan  Simmons  and  Billy  Donlon, 
both  seniors,  collected  post-sea- 
son honors  in  the  league. 
Simmons  was  named  first-team 
All-CAA  and  made  the  All-Tour- 
nament team.  Donlon  was  hon- 
ored with  the  Dean  Ehlers  Award 
for  leadership  at  the  tournament 
banquet.  The  Seahawks  lose  five 
seniors  this  year:  Billy  Donlon, 
Stan  Simmons,  Tadearl  Pratt, 
Paul  Tharp  and  losh  Hurley. 

Women's  basketball 

The  seventh-seeded  Seahawks 
lost  77-69  to  No.  2-seeded  Rich- 
mond Spiders  in  the  quarterfinals 
of  the  CAA  Women's  Basketball 
Championships.  Junior  Chandra 
Watkins  was  named  to  the  sec- 
ond team  of  the  All-CAA.  This  is 
the  first  time  a  Seahawk  has 
earned  All-CAA  mention  since  the 
1990-91  season. 

Overall,  the  team  made  progress 
under  Bernie  Flax's  second  sea- 
son as  head  coach.  They  won  one 
less  game  overall  than  last  year 
( 10-7),  but  played  a  much  tougher 
schedule  and  did  what  no  UNCW 
women's  basketball  team  has 


done  in  a  decade  -  win  five  games 
in  the  CAA  (5-11).  The  Seahawks 
say  goodbye  to  graduating  se- 
niors Dee  Dee  Toon,  Tonya 
Winfield,  Shannon  Casteel  and 
team  manager  Latasha  Smith. 

Boseman  field  dedicated 

More  than  35  of  the  late  James  F. 
Boseman's  family  and  friends 
gathered  March  27  to  honor  a 
man  who  loved  and  gave  much 
to  Seahawk  athletics.  Women's 
Softball  coach  Maggie  St.  Ledger, 
team  members  and  athletic  and 
university  officials  were  present 
for  the  dedication  of  the  women's 
Softball  complex. 

Seahawk  board  adds  four 

The  UNCW  Student  Aid  Associa- 
tion (the  Seahawk  Club)  named 
four  new  members  to  its  board  of 
directors.  Terry  Horton,  Julia 
Boseman,  William  Sutton  and 
Russell  Sutton  will  begin  their 
terms  July  1. 

"W"  Club  seeks  members 
The  new"W"  Club  will  give  former 
Seahawk  athletes  and  supporters 
an  opportunity  to  stay  involved 
with  the  university.  Membership

Opening  UNCW's  windows 
to  the  world 


By  Karen  Nunemaker  '99

Spring/Summer  1999 


HE  CONSTANT  WAVE  OF  INNOVATIONS  IN  INFORMATION  TECH- 
NOLOGY IS  TRANSFORMING  DAILY  LIFE,  CHANGING  NOT  ONLY 
THE  WAY  PEOPLE  COMMUNICATE,  WORK,  SHOP  AND  EVEN 
PLAY,  BUT  HOW  THEY  GET  AN  EDUCATION. 

TODAY,  USING  THE  INTERNET  OR  WORLD  WIDE  WEB,  STU- 
DENTS CAN  TOURTHE  CAMPUS,  SUBMIT  AN  APPLICATION  FOR 


admission,  schedule  and  take  courses,  chat  with  profes- 
sors and  find  a  job  -  all  from  the  comfort  of  their 
homes.  This  new  environment  is  called  "24x7"  which 
means  students  have  access  to  the  information  they 
need  or  want  at  any  time. 

Instead  of  requiring  students  to  own  a  computer, 
UNCW  is  adding  $90  to  student  fees  this  fall  so  every 
student  will  have  access  to  a  computer  on  campus  24 
hours  a  day,  seven  days  a  week. 

"I  don't  think  we  fully  understand  the  degree  to  which 
new  information  systems  are  transforming  the  way  we 
think  and  act  in  our  everyday  lives.  From  banking  to 
medical  services,  to  education  and  personal  life  man- 
agement access,  these  networks  are  profoundly  trans- 
forming our  world,"  said  Robert  R.  Tyndall. 

In  March,  Tyndall,  dean  of  the  Watson  School  of  Educa- 
tion, was  named  vice  chancellor  of  information  technol- 
ogy systems  at  UNCW.  This  new  division  will  work  to 
"remove  artificial  boundaries  which  inevitably  arise  in 
complex  organizations,"  Tyndall  told  the  Faculty  Senate 
in  April.  It  will  have  "the  authority,  resources  and  infor- 
mation linkages  necessary  to  give  continuity,  cohesion 
and  share  to  the  disparate  operations  which  often  be- 
come silos  of  containment  and  separation  on  university 
campuses."  The  Office  of  Information  Technology,  Man- 
agement Information  and  Support  and  Telecommunica- 
tions will  all  fall  within  this  new  division. 

Over  the  last  decade  Tyndall  has  been  actively  involved 
in  the  constantly  changing  world  of  technology.  He 
wrote  a  grant  titled  FiberNet  (Networking  Educational 
Technology)  which  was  the  foundation  for  the  Vision 
Carolina  project  in  1994  linking  UNCW  to  21  other  in- 
stitutions. This  project  opened  the  door,  and  UNCW 
became  the  first  university  in  North  Carolina  to  sign  on 
to  the  information  highway. 

"Our  ultimate  vision  is  to  position  UNCW  to  utilize  the 
full  range  and  power  of  information  technology  to 
achieve  our  stated  scholarly,  research  and  teaching 


missions,"  said  Tyndall.  By  pooling  resources  for 
people  who  want  to  develop  new  technologies  and  pro- 
grams that  will  have  a  high  return  for  UNCW,  Tyndall 
hopes  to  create  an  "area  of  innovation  and  experimen- 
tation in  technology  as  well." 

He  added,  "We  are  not  just  looking  at  maintaining 
wires,  but  at  innovation  on  a  small  scale."  He  be- 
lieves the  projects  will  be  exciting  and  fun  for  the 
staff  and  students. 

"We  can  do  this  by  creating  an  environment  where  we 
experiment  with  technologies  to  meet  our  intense  pro- 
gram needs."  Tyndall  believes  the  ultimate  question 
will  be  "Does  it  provide  greater  opportunity  and  en- 
hance the  learning  experience  for  students,  faculty  and 
the  general  public?" 

While  the  Internet  is  the  most  widely  used  means  of 
digital  communication,  the  "information  highway"  also 
plays  a  significant  role. 

"The  term  North  Carolina  Information  Highway  applies 
to  the  broadband  network  that  uses  interactive  video 
and  data  services,"  explained  Everard  Smith,  regional 
coordinator  of  the  NCIH. 

"The  information  superhighway  can  deliver  informa- 
tion from  multiple  sites  to  multiple  sites  simulta- 
neously," said  Tyndall. 

Currently  there  are  138  active  sites  available  through 
the  Division  for  Public  Service  and  Extended  Education 
Technology  Outreach  Program.  These  include  the  uni- 
versity, community  colleges,  high  schools,  public 
health  and  government  centers,  emergency  manage- 
ment, corrections,  the  highway  patrol  and  hospitals. 

Using  the  information  highway's  video  conferencing 
capabilities,  university  offers  an  extension  program  in 
Onslow  County  and  will  expand  by  fall  to  Bladen, 
Duplin  and  Sampson  counties,  said  Woody  Sutton 
technology  outreach  program  coordinator.  The  RN  Ac- 
cess nursing  program  is  popular  as  are  classes  offered

in  management,  sociology  and  criminal  justice. 

Some  professors  use  this  technology  to  enhance  their 
instruction,  much  like  the  World  Wide  Web  is  used.  For 
example,  Bob  Burger  in  HPER  put  his  students  in  direct 
contact  with  the  author  of  one  of  their  environmental 
studies  textbooks. 

Also  using  the  NCIH,  the  university  can  attract  students 
with  similar  interests  from  several  locations  across  the 
state  to  fill  a  course  that  might  not  have  enough  stu- 
dents at  any  one  site.  It  saves  money  by  keeping  travel 
costs  to  a  minimum.  Sutton  said  that  by  conducting 
weekly  UNC  General  Administration  meetings  over  the 
NCHI,  staff  and  faculty  don't  have  the  expense  -  both  in 
time  and  travel  -  of  going  to  Chapel  Hill. 

"It's  a  whole  new  way  to  meet  the  needs  of  our  custom- 
ers. You're  creating  access  to  information  that  has 
never  been  possible  before,"  UNCW's  technology  out- 
reach director  Hunter  Thompson  told  the  Wilmington 
Morning  Star  in  a  recent  article.  The  information 
highway's  mutually  beneficial  partnerships  have  con- 
tributed substantially  to  improving  the  quality  of  edu- 
cation in  southeastern  North  Carolina. 

Thompson  told  the  UNCW  Board  of  Trustees  in  April 
that  the  technology  outreach  program  offered  through 
the  Division  for  Public  Service  and  Extended  Education 
has  seven  channels  of  transmission  and  is  currently 
transmitting  31  different  courses  offered  by  UNCW  and 
other  schools.  Last  year  the  program  had  more  than 
2,000  hours  of  transmission,  he  said. 

In  classrooms  across  UNCW,  the  curriculum  is  en- 
hanced by  information  technology  at  several  dif- 
ferent levels. 

•  On-line  courses  are  being 
developed  with  special 

funds  designated  by  Chan-  

cellor  James  R.  Leutze. 
These  courses  are  totally 
Web-based;  the  only  class- 
room attendance  required  is 
for  exams.  The  university 
currently  offers  15  on-line 
courses  and  will  develop  17 
more  for  implementation  by 
fall. 


ing  and  criminal  justice.  Among  those  offered  are  gen- 
eral chemistry,  college  algebra,  introduction  to  logic 
and  Asian  religions.  They  are  accessible  through  any 
personal  computer  with  an  Internet  connection,  but  in- 
dividuals taking  the  courses  must  be  registered  as 
UNCW  students. 

Through  the  Division  for  Public  Service  and  Extended 
Education,  UNCW  offers  a  variety  of  non-credit  enrich- 
ment courses  on-line  through  a  program  called  "Web 
U."  Available  to  the  general  public  as  well  as  students, 
these  courses  are  for  entertainment  or  educational  pur- 
poses to  improve  knowledge  or  skills  in  a  particular 
area.  Among  those  offered  are  production  and  inven- 
tory management,  project  management  principles, 
business  and  management,  and  Year  2000  prepared- 
ness. The  courses,  which  range  in  price  from  $69  to 
$129,  are  on-going  with  new  sessions  beginning  the 
second  Wednesday  of  each  month  through  August. 
More  classes  will  be  offered  in  the  fall. 

•  The  Technology  College  was  instituted  at  UNCW  two 
years  ago.  "The  first  year  was  very  experimental,  but  we 
are  going  full  blast  this  year,"  said  program  coordinator 
Gabriel  G.  Lugo.  Fifty  students  were  enrolled  during  the 
spring  semester. 

While  all  students  can  enroll,  Technology  College  is 
recommended  for  those  in  their  first  or  second  year  of 
study  at  UNCW.  It  does  not  require  an  additional 
course  load  because  students  select  courses  in  the 
regular  curriculum  that  are  enhanced  with  technology 
and  Web  materials.  The  curriculum  focuses  on  courses 
which  fulfill  basic  studies  requirements,  but  offers  a  va- 
riety of  others  in  most  disciplines. 

"It  does  not  cost  students  extra  money  to  take  classes," 
said  Lugo.  "If  there  are  any 
costs,  they  are  part  of  the 
curriculum." 


On-line  courses  can  be  used 
to  satisfy  general  degree  re- 
quirements in  any  disci- 
pline and  lead  to  degrees  in 
business,  education,  nurs- 


"UNCW  has  already  begun  the 
necessary  cultural  and  tech- 
nological transformations  on 
campus  needed  to  respond  to 
the  international  information 
technology  partnerships  that 
will  develop  in  the  21st  cen- 
tury." 

-  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze 


The  number  of  classes  of- 
fered has  increased  since 
the  program  began.  "We 
started  out  at  about  15 
classes,"  said  Lugo.  "Cur- 
rently we  are  averaging 
about  45  courses  per  se- 
mester." 

Participants  are  required 
to  take  a  technology  semi- 
nar and  have  exclusive  use 
of  a  state-of-the-art  com- 
puter lab  with

bilities  and  on-line  access  to  curriculum  materials.  Af- 
ter completing  eight  courses,  students  receive  a  certifi- 
cate indicating  that  they  have  fulfilled  the  requirements 
for  the  Technology  College.  Lugo  said  this  certificate 
enhances  graduates'  qualifications  when  job  hunting. 

The  experience  participants  gain  in  the  program  helps 
them  in  other  ways.  Lugo  said  one  student  is  designing 
Web  pages  for  the  Office  of  International  Programs, 
while  another  works  at  the  Computer  Store  in  the 
UNCW  Bookstore. 

•  Faculty  are  using  information  technology  to  enhance 
their  regular  classroom  courses.  Lugo  said  there  are  ap- 
proximately 90  courses  which  use  Web  materials  to 
supplement  instruction. 

This  year  more  than  200  students  are  pursuing  degrees 
using  the  information  highway  and  Internet.  The  uni- 
versity expects  to  add  2,500  distance  learning  students 
to  its  program  within  the  next  five  years. 

Information  technology  is  also  changing  things  outside 
the  classroom. 

At  Randall  Library,  students,  faculty  and  staff  can  ac- 
cess millions  of  pieces  of  information  from  the  Internet. 
As  a  statewide  leader  in  making  access  to  information 
convenient,  library  director  Sherman  Hayes  said  UNCW 
has  added  6,000  full  text  journals,  millions  of  on-line 
newspaper  articles  and  extensive  indexing  services  in- 
cluding a  global  catalog  of  35  million  books  and 
records. 

Receiving  more  than  100,000  hits  a  month,  the  career 
services  Web  site  continues  to  build  its  electronic  pres- 
ence with  "UNCW  Careers/Resume  Expert."  This  site 
assists  students  in  developing  and  customizing  their  re- 
sume which  can  be  sent 
electronically  to  prospective 

employers.  The  site  "What  

Can  I  Do  with  a  Major  in  .  .  ." 
was  recognized  in  a  story  by 
the  Los  Angeles  Times  as  be- 
ing the  most  comprehensive 
in  the  country. 


pages  and  Internet-based  streaming  audio  and  video 
technologies. 

One  of  the  most  important  experiments  in  global  tech- 
nologies is  the  Virtual  University.  In  1998,  Gov.  Jim 
Hunt  asked  Chancellor  Leutze  to  lead  this  component 
of  the  Digital  Communities  Project  that  was  spear- 
headed by  the  Japanese  Industry  Development  Associa- 
tion, several  university  presidents  and  governors  of 
prefectures  in  Japan.  The  project  is  designed  to  pro- 
mote participation  and  application  of  information 
technology  by  Japanese  citizens. 

The  goals  of  the  Virtual  University  are  to  allow  students 
to  "virtually"  study  abroad,  enable  inter-university  ex- 
changes between  America  and  Japan,  learn  about  dis- 
tance learning  system  standardization  and  promote 
internationalization  of  local  governments,  explained 
Michelle  Howard-Vital,  vice  chancellor  for  public  ser- 
vice and  extended  education. 

Through  the  Virtual  University,  57  Japanese  students 
and  19  from  UNCW  took  courses  in  network  multime- 
dia, English  as  a  second  language/Japanese  cinema  and 
cultural  comparison  and  nursing  in  the  U.S.  and  Japan. 
The  demonstration  courses  were  offered  as  part  of  a  co- 
operative effort  between  UNCW  and  four  Japanese  uni- 
versities. After  the  demonstration  phase  is  evaluated 
and  courses  modified,  a  pilot  project  will  run  from  Oc- 
tober 1999  through  April  2000. 

"On-line  instruction  offers  a  new  way  of  delivering  in- 
formation and  education  to  people,"  Chancellor  Leutze 
stated  in  his  address  to  the  Digital  Communities  Forum 
in  November.  "UNCW  has  already  begun  the  necessary 
cultural  and  technological  transformations  on  campus 
needed  to  respond  to  the  international  information 

technology  partnerships

the  adventure 
f  ®  lifetime 


what  started  out  as  a 
pleasure  cruise  for  tammy 
Nielsen  '91  turned  into  the 
adventure  of  a  lifetime. 

Nielsen  has  been  living  aboard  the  41- 
foot  sailboat  Carolina  since  February 
1995  when  she  and  her  friend  John 
Joeright  headed  out  from  Wilmington 
in  search  of  adventure  in  the  Carib- 
bean. The  journey  began  on  the  Atlan- 
tic Intracoastal  Waterway,  then  three 
years  and  14,000  nautical  miles  later, 
they  pulled  into  a  dock  in  Auke  Bay, 
Alaska,  which  they  now  call  home. 

Nielsen  and  Joeright  embarked  after  de- 
ciding, each  for  different  reasons,  that 
they  no  longer  wanted  monotonous  9-to- 
5  jobs.  A  North  Carolina  native,  Nielsen 
earned  a  bachelor's  degree  in  English  with 
concentrations  in  literature  and  language 
from  UNCW.  She  worked  part-time  for 
Joeright,  who  owned  a  paint  contracting 
business  in  the  Wilmington  area,  and  sold 
ads  for  a  local  radio  station  and  newspa- 
per. Joeright  bought  the  Carolina  shortly 
after  his  marriage  ended. 


"We  wanted  an  escape  from  'normal' 
life,"  Nielsen  said. 

Neither  one  had  much  sailing  experi- 
ence. "I  had  only  taken  one  weekend 
class,"  said  Nielsen.  Undaunted,  they 
loaded  their  two  cats  -  Beauregard  and 
Chester-  into  the  boat  and  embarked 
on  their  journey.  They  knew  where  they 
wanted  to  go  and  prepared  themselves 
with  charts,  maps  and  guidebooks. 

They  found  the  Third  World  and  a  few 
hurricanes  along  the  way. 

Shortly  after  making  their  way  to  St. 
Thomas  in  September  1995,  Hurricane 
Luis  approached.  To  avoid  the  storm, 
they  sought  refuge  in  Puerto  Rico. 

"After  hiding  in  Puerto  Rico  from  Luis, 
we  returned  to  St.  Thomas.  One  week 
later,  the  storm  warnings  went  up  again 
and  we  set  sail  for  the  same  spot  - 
Culebra,  Puerto  Rico.  We  quickly  secured 
the  boat  and  waited  out  the  storm  aboard 
the  Carolina,"  Nielsen  said.  Hurricane 
Marilyn  struck,  and  with  sustained  winds 
of  150  mph  gusting  to  200  mph,  it  devas- 
tated everything  in  its  path.

"That  was  the  longest  and  most  fright- 
ening night  of  my  life,"  Nielsen  said. 
"We  were  very  lucky,  though  we  did 
have  substantial  damage."  While  the 
boat  stayed  afloat,  it  suffered  so  much 
damage  the  pair  was  marooned  for 
nine  months  awaiting  its  repair.  This 
gave  them  time  to  work  and  save  some 
money  to  continue  their  travels. 

By  June  1996,  the  boat  was  fixed,  and 
they  were  ready  to  move  on.  They  de- 
cided to  sail  to  the  South  Pacific,  via 
Nordstrom  and  Halls'  Mutiny  on  the 
Bounty  Trail,  ending  in  Tahiti  where 
they  would  decide  whether  to  seek  em- 
ployment in  Australia  or  Hawaii. 

After  making  their  way  through  the 
Panama  Canal,  they  sailed  south  to  the 
Galapagos  Islands.  Along  the  way,  they 
ran  into  the  doldrums,  a  region  of 
ocean  noted  for  calm  waters  and  light 
breezes,  where  they  languished  for 
days  on  end.  The  monotony  broke  with 
a  huge  gale  that  tossed  the  boat  with 
20-foot  waves. 

Nielsen  and  her  companion  reached 


UNCW  Magazine 


Spring/Summer  1999 


the  Galapagos  Islands  in  July  and 
spent  a  week  making  boat  repairs  and 
exploring  the  islands  which  are  filled 
with  all  kinds  of  wildlife.  They  then 
headed  southwest,  and  after  23  days, 
the  Carolina  made  it  to  Pitcairn  Island 
in  the  South  Pacific,  more  than  2,000 
nautical  miles  off  the  coast  of  Chile, 
the  nearest  mainland.  The  island, 
which  Nielsen  described  as  a  "rock, 
approximately  20  square  miles,"  is  the 
home  of  descendants  of  the  mutinous 
crew  of  the  HMS  Bounty.  The  47  inhab- 
itants speak  a  mixture  of  16lh  century 
English  and  Polynesian,  she  said. 

The  visit  was  brief  because  of  rough 
seas  around  the  island,  so  the  couple 
island-hopped  through  the  Gambier 
Islands,  then  passed  within  10  miles  of 
Moruroa,  the  infamous  French  H- 
bomb  testing  range. 

"Marine  and  aquatic  life  were  nonex- 
istent," Nielsen  observed. 

It  was  on  to  the  Society  Islands  where 
the  couple  spent  the  next  three  and  a 
half  months  visiting  Tahiti,  Moorea, 
Bora  Bora  and  Raiatea.

Joeright  pose  on  the  beach  at  Boro  Bora  (left). 
The  Carolina,  which  took  the  pair  14,000  miles, 
is  anchored  at  Reid  Glacier  in  Alaska  (top  right). 
Nielsen  left  her  9-to-S  job  behind  for  a  little 
adventure  on  the  high  seas. 


"We  left  Bora  Bora  about  30  days  later 
than  we  planned  because  Beauregard 
had  to  have  emergency  surgery.  We  ac- 
tually had  to  put  him  on  a  plane  to  Ta- 
hiti by  himself,"  Nielsen  said.  "He  was 
fine  afterwards." 

However,  the  sailors  were  at  the  very 
end  of  their  weather  window,  and  that 
is  one  reason  why  the  trip  to  Hawaii  in 
September  proved  so  perilous. 

Three  days  into  the  trip,  as  they  again 
sat  in  the  doldrums,  Joeright  acciden- 
tally punctured  the  freon  tube  in  the 
refrigerator.  A  third  of  their  food  had 
to  be  discarded.  It  was  unbearably  hot, 
they  had  limited  food  supply  and  they 
still  had  20  to  30  days  to  travel. 

Finally,  after  more  than  a  month  at 
sea,  they  limped  into  Honolulu  harbor 
where  they  had  hoped  to  stay  for  at 
least  a  year.  Their  hopes  were  dashed 
because  Hawaiian  law  prohibits  boats 
from  docking  long-term.  As  Nielsen 
and  loeright  wore  out  their  welcome  at 
dock  after  dock,  they  decided  to  aban- 
don their  goal  of  sailing  to  Australia. 

In  June  1997,  they  set  sail  for  Alaska 
where  they  hoped  to  find  work  and 
prepare  for  the  next  leg  of  their  adven- 
ture. The  journey,  despite  engine 
troubles  and  mild  illness,  ended  a 
month  later. 

Now  docked  for  almost  two  years  at 
Auke  Bay,  Nielsen  and  Joeright  still  live 
on  Carolina.  Joeright  works  at  a  hard- 
ware store,  and  Nielsen  manages  a  de- 
partment store.  "We  live  in  a  small 
community  where  everybody  knows 
your  name.  We  really  like  it  here," 
Nielsen  said. 

Their  journey,  however,  is  not  at  an 
end.  "We're  starting  a  charter  business 
to  show  everyone  the  beauty  of 
Alaska,"  Nielsen  said.  In  addition,  they 
are  raising  money  to  launch  a  passage 
through  the  northern  sea  route  to  Eu- 
rope, over  the  top  of  the  world.  Until 
1992  the  route  was  once  controlled  by 
the  Soviet  Union.  Although  it  is  now 
open,  it  has  never  been  fully  navigated 
by  a  cruising  vessel. 


Despite  a  few  pitfalls  over  the  past  four 
years,  Nielsen  said  the  good  times 
have  far  outweighed  the  bad.  However, 
one  of  the  most  painful  events  came 
on  November  30  when  their  cat 
Chester  died  mysteriously,  possibly, 
Nielsen  believes,  due  to  poisoning. 

"If  ever  there  was  a  soul  well  suited  to 
the  sea,  it  was  Chester,"  said  Joeright, 
Nielsen's  companion.  "He  braved  the 
storms  right  by  my  side  in  the  ele- 
ments, in  the  spray  and  with  the  great- 
est loyalty.  It  was  a  terrible  way  to  lose 
him  after  keeping  him  alive  under  the 
worst  of  circumstances. 

"The  past  few  years  have  been  a  mix- 
ture of  excitement,  adventure,  fear  and 
a  lot  of  hard  work,"  Nielsen  said.  "I 
may  have  lived  a  little  irresponsibly, 
but  I  have  enjoyed  life. 

"I've  seen  some  of  the  most  beautiful 
places  in  the  world,"  Nielsen  said. 
"And  living  in  Alaska,  the  last  great 
frontier,  has  increased  my  determina- 
tion to  appreciate  the  world  around 
me  and  the  beauty  it  has  to  offer."

20  years  of  doing  business 


Cameron 


By  Chandra  Allen  '99 

From  its  roots  in  Wilmington  College,  the 
UNCW  Cameron  School  of  Business  has 
developed  into  a  fully  accredited  program 
with  1,740  undergraduate  and  graduate  stu- 
dents. This  year  marks  its  20th  anniversary. 

"When  1  came  here  28  years  ago,  we  had  no 
special  place  of  our  own,  few  offices  and 
only  two  classrooms  in  Hoggard  Hall,"  said 
Norman  Kaylor,  former  dean  of  the  busi- 
ness school  and  now  a  retiring  professor. 
Robert  "Bob"  Appleton,  who  has  been  a 
member  of  the  UNCW  family  for  32  years, 
recruited  Kaylor  himself. 

In  1972,  the  Business  Department  moved 
into  the  new  Bear  Hall.  "It  was  a  lot  of  fun," 
said  Kaylor. "  I  knew  everybody,  and  you 
really  knew  the  students."  He  remembers 
that  at  the  close  of  each  semester,  when  the 
students  walked  across  the  stage  at  gradua- 
tion, he  knew  all  of  their  names. 

The  small  school  atmosphere,  however, 
was  destined  to  change  in  the  late  1970s  as 
the  demand  for  business  education  grew 
nationwide  and  opportunities  for  women 
in  the  professional  environment  increased. 

In  1979,  the  UNCW  Business  Department 
started  to  take  steps  to  become  an  accred- 
ited school.  This  was  part  of  the  move  cam- 
pus-wide to  broaden  the  scope  of  offered 
programs  at  UNCW;  the  university  was  or- 
ganized into  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sci- 
ences, the  School  of  Education  and  the 
School  of  Business  Administration.  That 
year-  1979  -  Kaylor  became  the  business 
school's  first  dean. 

Kaylor  believes  Appleton  "is  responsible  for 
many  of  the  faculty  being  here"  and  re- 
members that  in  the  early  days  of  Cameron 
School  of  Business,  he  "was"  the  account- 
ing department.  "The  school  owes  him  a 
real  debt  of  gratitude,"  said  Kaylor. 

Other  key  faculty  were  Stephen  Harper, 
who  was  "instrumental  in  developing  the 
Management  and  Marketing  Department," 
and  Roger  Hill  who  helped  organize  the  Fi- 
nance Department.  John  Anderson,  who 
received  his  undergraduate  degree  from 
UNCW,  returned  to  his  alma  mater  to  be- 
come the  "resident  computer  genius"  and 
form  the  Department  of  Production  and 


Decision  Sciences.  Anderson  later  served  as 
interim  dean  when  Kaylor  resigned  in  1992 
and  before  Howard  Rockness  from  UNC- 
Chapel  Hill's  Kenan-Flagler  School  of  Busi- 
ness was  hired  in  1993. 

Throughout  all  of  the  change  and  growth, 
the  UNCW  School  of  Business  Administra- 
tion was  bursting  at  its  seams  in  Bear  Hall. 

State  funding  was  approved  for  the  con- 
struction of  a  new  building  exclusively  for 
the  School  of  Business  Administration.  It 
was  to  be  the  most  advanced  in  design  and 
technology  available  at  the  time  and  fea- 
tured the  university's  first  attempt  at  a  LAN, 
local  area  network,  which  would  link  all  of 
the  classrooms  and  offices. 

Completed  in  summer  1988,  the  building 
was  dedicated  in  October  1988  and  named 
in  honor  of  the  Cameron  family  of  Wilm- 
ington for  their  generous  financial  contri- 
butions to  the  university.  In  January  1983, 
the  school  was  named  Cameron  School  of 
Business  Administration. 

Dan  and  Bruce  Cameron  were  "very  gener- 
ous at  a  time  in  history  when  we  really 
needed  to  get  past  still  being  known  as 
Wilmington  College,"  said  Kaylor.  He  felt 
that  many  of  the  things  that  were  accom- 
plished could  not  have  been  done  without 
the  help  of  these  two  visionary  Wilmington 
residents. 

Cameron  School  of  Business  (which  even- 
tually dropped  administration  from  its 
name)  has  come  a  long  way  from  those 
years  crammed  into  the  tight  spaces  in  Bear 
Hall.  It  received  top  accreditation  in  1993 
and  now  offers  an  undergraduate  degree  in 
business  administration  with  concentra- 
tions in  accounting,  economics,  finance, 
international  business,  management,  mar- 
keting and  business  systems.  It  also  offers 
master's  degrees  in  accountancy  and  busi- 
ness administration. 

A  new  international  exchange  program, 
which  will  start  in  fall  1999,  will  have  stu- 
dents attending  school  for  two  years  at  an- 
other university  involved  with  the  fledgling 
program.  The  other  schools  in  the  United 
States,  in  addition  to  UNCW,  are  East  Ten- 
nessee State  University  and  the  University 


of  Missouri-Kansas  City.  Students  will  also 
have  the  opportunity  of  going  to  universi- 
ties in  France,  Spain,  England  and  Ger- 
many. The  participating  students  will 
receive  two  degrees,  one  from  UNCW  and 
one  from  the  additional  school. 

Rockness  said  the  popularity  of  the  busi- 
ness school  has  grown  so  that  now  one  out 
of  every  six  students  at  UNCW  is  a  business 
major.  The  school  now  needs  to  "expand  its 
horizons  to  the  needs  of  North  Carolina  - 
Charlotte,  Greensboro,  Raleigh,  Durham, 
the  Research  Triangle,"  he  said. 

The  dean's  plans  for  the  next  five  years  cen- 
ter on  the  vision  that  the  Camerons  and 
Kaylor  had,  and  still  do,  for  the  school. 
"Who  we  will  become  is  as  important  as 
valuing  our  heritage,"  and  the  20th  celebra- 
tion has  been  a  way  "to  value  that  heritage 
and  to  launch  into  the  future,"  said 
Rockness. 

Rockness  also  feels  that  UNCW  is  among 
the  top  business  schools  in  North  Caro- 
lina. "UNCW's  focus  is  on  undergraduate      f/i'H 
students,"  he  said.  "Our  students  (whom 
he  fondly  calls  'our  kids')  can  compete  p 

with  any  of  the  business  schools  at  UNC    h| 
Chapel  Hill,  ECU,  Appalachian  orState." 

"I  walk  on  campus  today  with  pride;  it  is  uA 

a  good  place,"  said  Kaylor.  "We  are  serv-  Knyl 

ing  the  state  well,  using  our  tax  dollars  ^je 
effectively." 

The  school's  gala  celebration  was  held  May    ft  i 
15  honoring  faculty  and  staff  with  20  or  ^1 

more  years  of  service  including  Anderson, 
Appleton,  Harper,  Hill,  Kaylor,  Claude 
Farrell,  Woody  Hall,  Ravija  Badarinathi, 
Denis  Carter  and  Rebecca  Sawyer. 

"It  is  not  that  different,"  said  Kaylor  when 
summing-up  the  differences  between  then 
and  now.  "I  am  a  teacher  -  I  had  an  oppor- 
tunity to  see  something  grow.  Now  we  have 
more  stuff,  computers,  overheads,  nice 
classrooms.  We  have  turned  out  some  good 
people." 

Chandra  Allen  of  Fairfax,  Va.,  was  a  busi- 
ness management  major  who  did  a  spring 
internship  with  University  Relations.

Corcoran,  Todd  recognized 
as  alumni  award  winners 


James  "Mickey"  Corcoran  '70  and  Ber- 
tha Boykin  Todd  were  honored  by  the 
alumni  association  in  January  for  the 
impact  they  have  made  on  society  and 
UNCW. 

Named  Alumnus  of  the  Year,  Corcoran 
is  president  of  Woodruff  Distributing 
Co.  in  New  Bern.  He  is  vice  chairman 
of  the  UNCW  Board  of  Trustees  and  is 
a  member  of  the  Seahawk  Club  which 
supports  UNCW  athletics.  While  a  stu- 
dent, Corcoran  was  an  active  member 
of  Pi  Kappa  Phi  fraternity  and  contin- 
ues to  support  their  alumni  efforts. 

He  was  recognized  for  issuing  the 
Golden  Anniversary  Challenge  which 
was  instrumental  in  the  successful 
completion  of  UNCWs  $25  million 
capital  campaign.  Corcoran  pledged  to 
contribute  $10,000  to  the  university 
only  if  10,000  new  dollars  were  raised. 
"New  dollars"  included  any  increased 
gifts  from  donors  and  first-time  donor 
gifts.  The  challenge  resulted  in  506  in- 
creased gifts  and  1,071  new  donors. 
Together  with  Corcoran's  match, 
UNCW  raised  the  largest  amount  ever 
in  the  annual  campaign. 

The  impact  of  this  challenge  will  be 
felt  for  many  years.  Corcoran  offers 
encouragement  to  prospective  donors 


by  saying,  "The  return  on  your  invest- 
ment is  a  better  society." 

Recognized  as  the  Distinguished  Citi- 
zen of  the  Year,  Bertha  Boykin  Todd 
has  been  a  friend,  a  confidant,  a  cata- 
lyst for  positive  community  action,  a 
speaker,  a  teacher,  a  counselor  and  an 
administrator  for  more  than  45  years. 

She  has  degrees  in  biology,  library  sci- 
ence, supervision  and  administration. 
An  educator  for  nearly  40  years,  Todd 
worked  diligently  to  ease  tensions  and 
build  relations  between  races  so  all 
people  can  reach  their  full  potential. 

Her  impact  on  the  students  and  faculty 
she  has  worked  with  is  best  summa- 
rized by  these  words  of  one  student: 
"She  is  a  person  who  gives,  loves  and 
shares.  She  is  a  person  who  makes 
friends,  mediates  for  peace  and  serves 
as  a  confidant.  She  works  with  a  vari- 
ety of  people  without  regard  to  race, 
sex,  creed  or  financial  status.  She  takes 
time  to  listen." 

Her  life  demonstrates  her  commitment 
of  rendering  service  to  mankind.  She 
cochaired  the  1898  Centennial  Foun- 
dation and  has  served  in  numerous 
facets  of  human  relations,  including 
the  N.C.  Human  Relations  Council  un- 
der Gov.  James  Hunt.  As  chair  of  Con- 


lertha  Boykin  Todd  and  James 
"Mickey"  Corcoran  '70  were  the  1999 
UNCW  Alumni  Award  winners. 

ciliation  Committee  of  the  New  Ha- 
nover County  Board  of  Social  Services, 
she  worked  with  groups  and  individu- 
als to  find  solutions  to  grievances.  She 
was  on  the  New  Hanover  County  Hu- 
man Relations  Council  and  the  UNCW 
Foundation  Board.  She  contributes  to 
the  American  Red  Cross  and  holds  a 
life  membership  in  the  NAACP. 

Her  concern  for  others  shows  in  her 
home  life  as  well.  During  her  employ- 
ment in  the  North  Carolina  high  school 
system  she  unofficially  adopted  and 
supported  five  students.  All  were  at-risk 
youths  who  went  on  to  graduate  from 
high  school  and  attend  college.

UNCW  Magazine       13 


AAGA 

"Reaching  Back  to  Help  Oth- 
ers" was  the  homecoming 
theme  for  the  African-Ameri- 
can Graduates  Association. 
This  year's  celebration  marked 
AAGA's  10th  anniversary.  In 
keeping  with  the  theme,  AAGA 
members  sold  T-shirts  bearing 
the  familiar  portrait  of  "He 
ain't  heavy,  he's  my  brother." 
The  T-shirts,  which  were  sold 
for  $15,  were  a  big  hit  with 
alumni.  Linda  Upperman 
Smith,  interim  director  of  mi- 
nority affairs,  was  the  keynote 
speaker  at  the  Saturday  lun- 
cheon where  she  challenged 
the  organization  to  adhere  to 
its  theme  by  helping  under- 
graduates and  minority  organi- 
zations on  campus. 

At  the  Saturday  board  meeting, 
the  organization  committed  to 
concentrate  on  fund-raising 
efforts  for  endowing  scholar- 
ships for  deserving  minority 
graduates.  Officers  and  board 
members  elected  were  Tim 
Kornegay  '89,  president;  Wanda 
Coley  Corbin  '87,  vice  presi- 
dent; Jackie  Beamon  '85,  secre- 
tary/treasurer. Board  members 
include  Liz  Johnson  72,  Gia 
Todd  Long  '91,  Ron  Hamm  '90, 
Lisa  Hamm  '89,  Veronica  Ross 
79,  Veronica  Robinson  Davis 
'89,  Lanette  Bethea  '94  and 
Sherie  Dillard  '90.

Cameron  School  of 
Business  Chapter 

The  association  welcomes  its 
newest  chapter  which  will  give 
business  alumni  a  link  to  the 
Cameron  School  of  Business, 
the  alumni  association  and 
UNCW,  as  well  as  serving  as  a 


networking  and  social  outlet. 

During  the  homecoming  pre- 
game  social,  Dean  Howard 
Rockness  announced  the  for- 
mation of  the  chapter.  The  fol- 
lowing slate  of  officers  was 
elected:  Donis  Noe  '86,  M'94, 
president;  Richard  Edens  M'94, 
vice  president;  Tammy  Blizzard 
'83,  M'97,  treasurer;  Anne 
Johnson  '91,  secretary.  The 
board  of  directors  includes 
Vickie  Alala  '97,  M'98,  John 
Anderson  '68,  Margaret  Fedora 
M'98,  Cheryl  Fetterman  M'92, 
Jerry  McDuffie  74,  Alex  Smith 
'86  and  Larry  White  '90. 

It  is  appropriate  that  the  Cam- 
eron School  of  Business  join 
the  association  in  this  new  en- 
deavor as  the  school  celebrates 
its  20th  anniversary.  Alumni 
input  and  support  are  key  com- 
ponents in  celebrating  any  an- 
niversary, and  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business  is  making 
every  effort  to  include  alumni 
in  its  events.  Special  thanks  to 
Dean  Rockness  for  his  contin- 
ued support  of  alumni  pro- 
grams and  activities. 

On  May  15,  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business  hosted  a 
gala  in  celebration  of  the  busi- 
ness school's  anniversary. 
Miller  Building  Corp.,  which  is 
celebrating  its  50th  anniver- 
sary, provided  a  generous  gift 
to  underwrite  the  festivities. 
Among  those  honored  were 
Cameron  School  faculty  and 
staff  with  20  years  or  more  of 
service  and  distinguished 
alumni  and  friends  of  the 
school,  especially  Bruce,  Dan 
and  Betty  Cameron  for  whom 
the  school  is  named. 

Business  alumni  interested  in 
participating  in  this  new  chap- 
ter can  contact  Mike  Arnold 
with  alumni  relations  or  Beth 
Becka,  Cameron  School  of 
Business  development  director,

Cape  Fear  Chapter 

The  Cape  Fear  Chapter  contin- 
ues to  soar.  Last  fall,  members 
sponsored  the  Cape  Fear 
Alumni  Golf  Classic  and  real- 
ized its  most  successful  fund- 
raising  effort  ever.  The  chapter 
also  organized  the  UNCW  Cape 
Fear  Alumni  Beach  Blowout  at 
the  Wrightsville  Beach  home  of 
John  70  and  Caroline  73  Pol- 
lard. The  beachfront  home  was 
a  great  setting  for  alumni  and 
friends  to  socialize  in  the 
spirit  of  the  Seahawks. 

At  homecoming,  the  chapter 
cosponsored  the  pregame  so- 
cial with  a  gift  of  $750  to  the 
association.  Hundreds  of 
alumni  enjoyed  the  good  food 
and  great  entertainment. 
(Thanks  Tom  Lamont  '80  for 
that  great  Harley  show!) 

On  May  13,  the  chapter  spon- 
sored the  UNCW  Cape  Fear 
Alumni  Grand  Slam  Jam  at 
Brooks  Field.  Alumni  enjoyed  a 
great  baseball  game  between 
UNCW  and  the  rival  Pirates  of 
ECU.  The  chapter  provided 
game  tickets,  hamburgers,  hot 
dogs  and  all  the  fixin's  at  no 
charge  to  250  participants.  It 
was  the  chapter's  way  of  say- 
ing, "Thanks  alumni  for  a  mag- 
nificent year." 

Charlotte  Alumni 
Chapter 

Serving  as  chapter  representa- 
tive is  Janet  Bryant  '97.  The 
chapter  is  sending  a  letter  to 
all  alumni  recruiting  volun- 
teers for  its  leadership  board. 
Alumni  who  would  like  more 
information  about  Charlotte 
alumni  events  and  activities 
can  call  Bryant  at  704-947-

Communication  Studies 
Chapter 

On  March  26,  chapter  members 
announced  they  have  raised 
more  than  $22,000  toward  the 


Betty  Jo  Welch  Communication 
Studies  Alumni  Scholarship  En- 
dowment. The  minimum 
amount  to  reach  endowment 
status  at  UNCW  is  $25,000. 
Members  hope  to  complete  the 
first-ever  communication  stud- 
ies endowed  scholarship  this 
spring,  but  they  need  alumni 
support  to  help  get  them  over 
the  top.  Alumni  who  would  like 
to  make  a  tax-deductible  con- 
tribution to  this  scholarship 
effort  can  contact  Michael  Ar- 
nold with  alumni  relations. 

On  April  29,  the  association, 
in  partnership  with  the  Com- 
munication Studies,  Film  Stud- 
ies, Art  and  Theatre,  Business 
and  English  departments  spon- 
sored the  1999  UNCW  Spring 
Alumni  Lectures  Series.  Com- 
munication studies  alumnus 
David  Hartley  '84  came  back  to 
campus  to  share  his  many  ac- 
complishments since  graduat- 
ing. He  is  currently  producer 
and  production  manager  for 
Dawson's  Creek,  the  new  hit 
show  for  the  WB  Network. 

Following  the  lecture,  the 
Communication  Studies  Depart- 
ment hosted  its  annual  awards 
banquet  recognizing  Julie 
Polak  '97  as  the  Outstanding 
Alumnus  of  the  Year.  She  is 
the  telemedicine  services  coor- 
dinator at  the  Carolinas  Medi- 
cal Center  in  Charlotte. 

This  summer,  the  chapter  will 
seek  nominations  for  its  10-  to 
15-member  advisory  board 
which  will  be  responsible  for 
the  direction  of  alumni  chapter 
programs  and  activities. 
Alumni  interested  in  serving 
on  the  board  can  call  Tom  La- 
mont '80  at  910-392-3033.

ebrate the  Seahawk's  run  in  the 
CAA  tournament.  UNCW  hosted 
a  hospitality  room  for  alumni 
and  Seahawk  fans  at  the  Em- 
bassy Suites  as  part  of  the  cel- 
ebration surrounding  the  tour- 
nament. The  evening  before  the 
competition  began,  alumni  had 
dinner  at  the  Richbrau  Brewery. 
The  Seahawks  won  their  first 
round  game  but  lost  a  nail- 
biter  in  the  second  round  to 
the  eventual  champion  George 
Mason  University.  Alumni  who 
would  like  to  participate  in  ac- 
tivities in  the  Richmond  area

Triangle  Chapter 

On  Sunday,  June  6,  the  chap- 
ter will  sponsor  its  annual 
UNCW  Alumni  Night  with  the 
Durham  Bulls.  This  event  has 
grown  in  popularity  among  Tri- 
angle area  alumni  with  more 
than  100  people  attending  pre- 
vious efforts.  This  year's  fes- 
tivities will  start  at  4  p.m.  in 
the  right  field  cookout  area. 
Look  for  the  UNCW  alumni 
check-in  table  outside  the

game  ticket,  chicken,  ham- 
burgers, sodas,  beer  and  door 
prizes.  There  is  no  charge  for 


children  five  and  under.  Ad- 
vanced payment  is  necessary 
and  can  be  made  by  calling  the 
Alumni  Relations  Office  at  1- 
800-596-2880. 

Triad  Chapter 

On  March  24,  chapter  members 
gathered  at  Ronni's  restaurant 
in  Kemersville.  Alumni  Execu- 
tive Director  Pat  Corcoran  was 
there  to  visit  with  alumni  and 
treated  them  to  hot  wings  and 
cold  beer. 

The  chapter  is  seeking  alumni 
support  for  the  UNCW  Jim 
Humphries  Memorial  Scholar- 
ship, an  effort  by  several  Triad 
alumni,  family  and  friends  to 
create  an  endowment  at  UNCW 
in  memory  of  Jim  Humphries 
'90.  Humphries,  who  graduated 
from  UNCW  with  a  degree  in 
communication  studies,  was 
president  of  the  Student  Gov- 
ernment Association  and  a  key 
member  of  the  Delta  Sigma  Phi 
fraternity.  After  a  battle  with 
brain  cancer,  Humphries  died 
on  July  3,  1995. 

Alumni  who  would  like  to  make 
a  tax-deductible  contribution 
to  the  UNCW  Jim  Humphries 
Memorial  can  contact  Michael 
Arnold  with  alumni  relations. 
Wes  Ward  and  Bret  Kinney  and 
all  their  fraternity  brothers  are 
to  be  commended  for  their 
continued  support  of  the  UNCW 
Jim  Humphries  Memorial. 

Watson  School  of 
Education  Chapter 

Debbie  Bowman  Lemon  78  of 
Shatlotte  received  the  1999 
Watson  School  of  Education 
Distinguished  Alumni  Achieve- 
ment Award.  She  teaches  aca- 
demically gifted  math  classes 
at  Shallotte  Middle  School 
where  she  is  recognized  for 
"her  enthusiasm,  her 
innovativeness  and  her  genuine 
concern  for  math  education"  as 
well  as  "her  dedication  and 
commitment  to  academic  excel- 
lence," according  to  her  princi- 
pal Robert  Grimes. 


Winners  of  the  chapter's  $500 
scholarships  are  Kimberly  S. 
Small,  a  senior  English/Span- 
ish secondary  education  major, 
and  Traci  S.  Jones,  a  junior  el- 
ementary education  major. 

Chapter  members  express  their 
thanks  and  gratitude  to  Dr. 
Robert  Tyndall  for  his  service 
to  UNCW  as  dean  of  the  Wat- 
son School  of  Education  and 
his  commitment  to  alumni  ac- 
tivities and  events.  Dean  Tyn- 
dall has  accepted  a  new  posi- 
tion on  campus  as  vice 
chancellor  for  information 
technology  systems  and  will  be 
responsible  for  bringing  all 
campus  information  technol- 
ogy systems  together  in  a  uni- 
fied approach  to  focus  the  uni- 
versity talents  and  resources. 

This  spring  the  chapter 
launched  a  new  educational- 
based  student  mentoring  pro- 
gram with  alumni  serving  as 
professional  mentors  to  UNCW 
students  pursuing  a  degree  in 
education.  These  future  teach- 
ers need  the  experience  and  ad- 
vice of  alumni  who  are  in  the 
classroom  everyday.  Mentoring 
is  a  great  way  for  alumni  to 
give  back  to  students  and  have 
a  positive  influence  in  a  young 
person's  life. 

On  May  7,  the  Watson  School 
of  Education  hosted  its  annual 
picnic.  All  alumni  were  invited 
to  attend  and  learn  more  about 
the  great  things  happening  at 
the  school  of  education. 

Education  alumni  who  want  to 
participate  in  chapter  activi- 
ties or  who  want  to  serve  as  a 
student  mentor  can  contact 
Mike  Arnold  with  alumni  rela- 
tions or  Maria  Rice-Evans, 
school  of  education  develop- 
ment director,  910-962-7055. 

Alumni  who  would  like  to  be 
involved  in  or  obtain  more  in- 
formation about  chapter  pro- 
grams and  events  can  contact 
Michael  Arnold,  alumni  program 
coordinator  at  910-962-2684  or 
800-596-2880  or  e-mail  him  at

Raffle  was  "Hog  Wild" 

The  fund-raising  goal  was  $20,000, 
but  the  alumni  association's  "Hog 
Wild  for  the  Hawks"  raffle  of  the 
1999  Harley-Davidson  Sportster 
exceeded  that  goal,  bringing  in 
more  than  $22,000  for  programs 
and  outreach. 

Donated  by  Bob  Williams  77  of 
Fayetteville,  the  Harley-Davidson 
was  awarded  at  the  homecoming 
dance  Jan.  30  at  the  Wilmington 
Hilton.  The  winner  was  Toni 
Hardin  who  works  in  human  re- 
sources at  UNCW. 

Along  with  the  40  alumni  board 
members,  there  were  close  to  200 
individuals  selling  raffle  tickets. 
The  top  salesperson,  Frank  Bua 
'68,  sold  580  tickets  and  raised 
$2,900.  For  his  effort  he  was 
awarded  homecoming  dance  tick- 
ets for  two  couples  plus  overnight 
accommodations  and  breakfast 
for  two  at  the  Wilmington  Hilton. 

Homecoming  scheduled 

Mark  your  calendars  for  Home- 
coming 2000. 

Alumni  activities  will  be  held  Sat- 
urday, Feb  5.  The  Seahawks  will 
play  Old  Dominion  University  in 
Trask  Coliseum  that  evening.  A 
pregame  social  and  homecoming 
dance  are  planned.  Details  will  be 
announced  in  the  fall. 

Directory  is  planned 

Be  on  the  lookout  this  fall  for  a 
questionnaire  from  Harris  Pub- 
lishing Co. 

It's  important  that  all  alumni 
complete  it  and  return  it 
promptly  to  be  included  in  the 
Y2K  edition  of  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association  Directory. 

The  first  alumni  directory  was 
published  in  1995.  Since  then, 
the  database  has  grown  signifi- 
cantly, and  an  updated  directory 
will  better  represent  the  alumni 
foundation. 

The  Y2K  edition  will  have  new 
features  and  will  be  available  in 
print  and  CD-ROM.  These  direc- 
tories will  be  available  for  pur- 
chase in  October  2000.

Dedicated  alumni  make  this  a  great  year 


The  U  NCW  Alumni  Association  is  alive  and 
well!  This  year,  thanks  to  countless  volun- 
teer hours,  the  alumni  association  experi- 
enced one  of  its  best  years  ever.  Working 
together  as  a  team,  we  raised  money,  made 
new  friends  and  increased  the  visibility  of 
the  association. 

We  did  not  do  it  alone.  Thanks  to  the  help 
of  many  dedicated  alumni  and  special 
thanks  to  Bob  Williams  77.  Bob  is  theowner 
of  Cape  Fear  Harley-Davidson  in  Fay- 
etteville,  and  through  his  generous  dona- 
tion of  a  new  Harley-Davidson  Sportster 
motorcycle,  we  sold  raffle  tickets  for  this 
year's  big  fund-raiser.  Led  by  top  raffle 
ticket  salesman  Frank  Bua  '68,  we  raised 
more  than  $22,000  for  alumni  programs 
and  outreach.  We  thank  all  of  you  for  buy- 
ing and  selling  tickets. 

It  was  not  only  Harley-Davidson  fever  that 
brought  alumni  together  this  year.  Home- 
coming '99  drew  record  crowds  to  the 
university's  annual  event.  The  alumni  as- 
sociation helped  celebrate  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business's  20th  anniversary, 


brought  Tau  Kappa  Epsi- 
lon  alumni  back  to  cam- 
pus fortheir  100"'birthday 
and  created  an  atmo- 
sphere of  fun  and  fellow- 
ship for  all  graduates. 

We  are  most  proud  of  Lamont 
helping  our  fellow  alumni 
and  those  less  fortunate  in  our  commu- 
nity. The  Cape  Fear  Alumni  Chapter  raised 
money  through  a  golf  tournament  to  sup- 
port the  Betty  Jo  Welch  Scholarship  effort 
for  the  Communication  Studies  Chapter. 
Food  was  provided  for  five  area  families 
during  Thanksgiving  and  presents  were 
given  to  1 0  children  at  Christmas.  We  have 
achieved  many  of  our  goals  this  year,  but 
we  still  have  work  to  do. 

We  must  now  plan  for  the  UNCW  Alumni 
Association's  30th  Anniversary  Celebration 
in  1999-2000.  Please  help  us  celebrate  our 
association's  growth  and  help  spread  the 
message,  "UNCW  graduates  are  making  a 
difference." 


Association  celebrates  30  years  of  service 


To  our  early  pioneers,  Albert  Corbett  '65, 
first  vice  president;  Porter  Alex  Robbins 
'52,  second  vice  president;  Lou  McAulay 
Greer  '62,  secretary;  and  David  Warner, 
director  of  university  relations  in  1969,  we 
express  our  sincere  gratitude  for  jump  start- 
ing our  association. 

Elected  as  "temporary  "officers  from  Wilm- 
ington College's  first  1 0  years  and  one  from 
each  of  the  next  five  years,  these  alumni  led 
the  initial  unified  effort  as  a  part  of  the 
UNC  system  to  establish  our  association. 
The  Alumni  Fund  was  created  by  their  ini- 
tiative through  a  written  appeal  to  gener- 
ate funds  to  publish  the  first  edition  of  the 
Alumni  Bulletin  (news  and  briefs)  and  con- 
tinue it  on  a  quarterly  basis.  Our  giving 
then  and  now  impacts  how  the  association

Fall  anniversary 
celebration  set 

As  Wilmington  College  was  trans- 
formed into  the  University  of 
North  Carolina  at  Wilmington  in 
1969,  a  small  group  of  dedicated 
alumni  met  to  organize  an  asso- 
ciation. 

Although  there  had  been  numer- 
ous alumni  efforts  prior  to  that, 
nothing  was  formalized  until 
Nov.  18,  1969. 

This  fall,  the  UNCW  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation will  recognize  the  efforts 
of  those  founding  fathers  with  a 
special  celebration  Nov.  19  and 
20.  The  commemoration  will 
continue  throughout  the  follow- 
ing months  with  all  alumni  ac- 
tivities and  events  throughout 
1999  and  into  2000  using  the  30Ih 
anniversary  as  their  theme. 

The  kickoff  celebration  will  be 
Nov.  19-20.  Alumni  "pioneer" 
Bob  King  '66  has  agreed  to  host  a 
dinner  party  in  the  truck  center 
at  Bob  King  Automall,  similar  to 
events  he  hosted  in  the 
association's  early  days. 

On  Saturday,  a  brunch  at  Wise 
Alumni  House  is  planned  for  the 
morning,  and  tours  of  the  cam- 
pus will  be  offered  in  the  after- 
noon. An  interactive  walking  tour 
of  some  of  the  oldest  buildings 
will  be  supplemented  with  a 
riding  tour  of  the  entire  campus. 
If  a  men's  basketball  game  is 
scheduled  for  that  evening,  the 
association  will  host  a  pregame 
social  prior  to  tip-off. 

Historical  displays  reflecting  on 
association  milestones  over  the 
past  30  years  as  well  as  special 
;rsary  memorabilia  will  be 
hp  re'ebration  which

The  Campus  Commons  has  softened  the  landscape  in  front  of 
Randall  Library,  with  its  rolling  hills  and  connecting  ponds.  It's 
a  popular  place  for  students  to  take  an  outdoor  study  break 
between  classes  or  to  roller  blade  on  the  weekends.  The  inset

UNCW  ranks  among  top  10 
Southern  public  universities 


As  evidence  of  its  growing  aca- 
demic reputation,  UNCW  rose 
in  latest  college  rankings  devel- 
oped by  U.S.  News  and  World 
Report. 

Among  the  top  10  public  univer- 
sities in  the  South  for  a  second 
consecutive  year.  UNCW  is  sev- 
enth, up  from  ninth  in  the  1999 
rankings.  UNCW  is  ranked  23rd 
among  both  public  and  private 
regional  universities  in  the  South. 

Under  the  leadership  of  Chan- 
cellor James  R.  Leutze,  UNCW 
has  strengthened  its  under- 


graduate teaching  and  overall 
academic  excellence.  It  is  recog- 
nized nationally  and  interna- 
tionally for  its  marine  biology 
program,  for  its  technological 
initiatives  in  global  learning  and 
for  the  programs  of  the  Watson 
School  of  Education. 

UNCW  received  a  record  num- 
ber of  freshman  applications  - 
7,910  -  for  1,600  fall  1999  open- 
ings. In  the  UNC  system, 
UNCW's  selectivity  rate  remains 
second  only  to  UNC  Chapel  Hill. 


Survey  says  .  .  . 

Faculty  teach  more,  do  more  research  than  average 


UNCW  faculty  spend  more  time 
teaching  and  counseling  un- 
dergraduate students,  but  at 
the  same  time  are  more  pro- 
ductive with  research  and 
scholarship  than  their  counter- 
parts at  the  average  four-year 
public  university. 

"Faculty  at  the  University  of 
North  Carolina  at  Wilmington 
are  carrying  out  the  values  that 
parents  and  legislators  think  are 
important,"  said  Chancellor 


James  R.  Leutze.  The  survey  of 
full-time  UNCW  faculty  was  con- 
ducted this  spring  by  UCLA.  Two 
hundred  responded,  about  46 
percent  of  those  eligible. 

"The  survey  ...  shows  that  our 
faculty  take  teaching  responsi- 
bilities seriously,  they  spend 
time  with  students,  and  they 
have  the  balance  between  teach- 
ing and  scholarship  that  we  are 
looking  for  in  focusing  on  un- 
dergraduates," Leutze  said. 


Summarizing  the  survey  results, 
Bob  Fry,  assistant  to  the  chan- 
cellor and  director  of  institu- 
tional research,  said,  "Our 
faculty  are  much  more  involved 
with  students  here  than  at  most 
other  four-year  schools.  The  sur- 
vey says  they  spend  more  time 
with  academic  advising  and 
teaching.  Their  teaching  style  is 
more  interactive  and  participa- 
tory, especially  for  female  fac- 
ulty. Our  faculty  are  also  heavier 
users  of  technology." 


Bradley-Doppes 
fills  AD  position 

Margaret  (Peggy)  Bradley- 
Doppes,  an  energetic  leader  of 
college  athletics  as  astudent-ath- 
lete,  head  coach  and  senior  ad- 
ministrator, has  succeeded  Paul 
Miller  as  director  of  athletics. 

The  former  senior  associate  ath- 
letic director  and  senior  women's 
administrator  at  the  University 
of  Michigan,  Bradley-Doppes, 
42,  is  one  of  only  18  female  ath- 
letic directors  among  the  NCAA's 
300-plus  Division  I  institutions. 
She  also  is  the  first  full-time  fe- 
male athletic  director  in  the  his- 
tory of  the  Colonial  Athletic 
Association  and  one  of  only  two 
in  the  16-school  UNC  system. 

"I  believe 
UNCW  has 
unlimited  po- 
tential and 
will  be  a  uni- 
versity that 
will  be  recog- 
nized and  re- 
spected for 
operating  a  first-class  athletic 
department  that's  part  of  astrong 
academic  institution,"  she  said. 
"Ilookforward  to  having  our  pro- 
gram become  conference  con- 
tenders. That's  not  going  to 
happen  overnight,  but  I  can 
promise  that  our  teams  will  com- 
pete on  the  athletic  court  as  well 
as  in  the  classroom." 
Before  going  to  Michigan.  Brad- 
ley-Doppes coached  volleyball 
at  UNC  Chapel  Hill  for  seven 
seasons  (1984-90)  and  piloted 
the  volleyball  program  at  Mi- 
ami of  Ohio  for  five  campaigns 
(1979-84). 

The  Cincinnati,  Ohio,  native  re- 
ceived a  bachelor's  degree  in 
health  and  physical  education 
from  the  College  of  Mount  St. 
Joseph  in  Cincinnati  in  1979  and 
completed  her  master's  at  Mi- 
ami of  Ohio  in  1981.

Construction 
continues 
on  campus 

The  active  1999  hurricane  sea- 
son was  one  of  several  things  to 
threaten  -  but  not  stop  -  the 
progress  of  construction  projects 
at  UNCW. 

Although  the  General  Assembly 
this  summer  postponed  action 
on  the  system's  proposal  to  bor- 
row $3.5  billion  for  capital  im- 
provements on  the  public 
campuses  and  the  state  antici- 
pates a  large  bill  for  hurricane 
relief,  UNCW  officials  are  hoping 
this  will  not  delay  the  progress  of 
the  Watson  School  of  Education 
classroom  building  and  resource 
center.  Planning  and  design 
moneywas  appropriated  in  1998, 
and  the  university  is  actively  seek- 
ing public  and  legislative  support 
for  funding  the  construction  dur- 
ing the  2000  session. 

Currently  located  in  King  Hall, 
the  Watson  School  of  Education 
has  the  capacity  to  graduate  ap- 
proximately 300  new  teachers 
annually,  but  schools  in  south- 
eastern North  Carolina  will  need 
at  least  500  new  teachers  each 
year.  The  gap  between  what  is 
needed  and  what  can  be  provided 
is  due  in  part  to  a  severe  shortage 
of  teacher  education  facilities  at 
UNCW.  Construction  funds  ap- 
propriated by  the  legislature  are 
required  before  plans  for  the 
Watson  School  of  Education  can 
be  transformed  into  a  place 
where  classes  are  held  and  edu- 
cators are  prepared  to  fill  the  va- 
cant positions  in  the  region's  K- 12 
public  schools. 

As  UNCW's  student  population 
grows,  so  does  the  need  for  ad- 
ditional facilities.  Paul  Hosier, 
associate  vice  chancellor  for  aca- 
demic affairs,  said  the  university 
faces  two  major  problems  regard- 
ing space  constraints.  One  is  the 
lack  of  classrooms.  On  average, 
UNCW  uses  its  classrooms  more 
than  any  other  university  in  the 


Alternative  transportation

Continued  on  page  4 


Hundreds  of  UNCW  students  are 
learning  to  be  a  little  less  depen- 
dent on  their  cars  this  year. 

With  the  campus  population 
continually  on  the  rise  and 
parking  spaces  a  hot  commod-

Athletes  have  top 
graduation  rate 

UNCW  posted  the  highest  gradu- 
ation rate  for  its  student-athletes 
among  NCAA  Division  I  public 
universities  in  North  Carolina. 

In  the  annual  summary  by  the 
governing  body  of  collegiate  ath- 
letics, UNCW  graduated  a  com- 
mendable 80  percent  of  its 
student-athleteswho  entered  the 
university  during  the  1992-93 
term.  UNC  Chapel  Hill  and  UNC 
Asheville  came  in  second  and 
third  at  66  and  65  percent,  re- 
spectively. UNCW  also  led  the 
UNC  system  in  four-year  aver- 
ages for  graduation  rates  at  77 
percent,  with  UNC  Chapel  Hill  in 
second  place  at  67  percent. 

Among  the  Colonial  Athletic 
Association's  nine  institutions, 
UNCW  tied  for  the  thirdbest  rate. 
American  University  graduated 
87  percent  of  its  student-athletes 
in  the  report  while  the  University 
of  Richmond  came  in  second  at 
82  percent.  UNCW  and  William 
and  Mary  tied  for  third  with  80 
percent  rates. 

Sports  hall  of  fame 
third  induction  set 

The  third  induction  of  the  UNC 
Wilmington  Athletics  Hall  of 
Fame  will  take  place  Saturday, 
Feb.  26,  in  the  Warwick  Center 
Ballroom.  A  reception  will  be 
held  at  1 1  a.m.  with  the  luncheon 
and  induction  ceremony  slated 
to  begin  at  noon.  For  tickets  or

tion Office  at  910.962.3236. 


for  all  under- 
graduates who 
live  within  a  one- 
mile  radius  of  the 
centerof  campus, 
an  estimated 
3,000  students. 

To  accommodate 
those  students,  the 
Seahawk  Shuttle 
bus  service,  insti- 
tuted last  year,  was 
revamped  and  expanded.  As  a 
result,  ridership  is  up  about  487 
students  a  day  which  represents 
a325  percent  increase.  More  re- 
cent figures  show  several  days 
with  as  many  as  600  riders. 

As  a  safety  precaution  for  stu- 
dents who  walk  or  ride  bicycles 
to  campus,  Richard  Scott,  as- 
sistant vice  chancellor  for  busi- 
ness affairs,  said,  "We  have 
added  a  crosswalk  and  'walk/ 
don't  walk'  signs"  at  the  three 
South  College  Road  intersec- 
tions, and  "we  are  monitoring 
these  areas  for  safety  in  cross- 
ing with  NCDOT's  help." 

"We've  applied  for  a  grant  to 
build  a  new  bike  path  which 


More  students  are  riding  bikes  around  campus  as  a 
result  of  the  one-mile  radius  parking  ban. 


will  be  continuous  from  Westside 
Hall  to  ParkAvenue  off  MacMillan 
and  on  to  Wrightsville  Beach.  This 
is  a  joint  effort  among  the  city, 
county  and  UNCW.  We  are  con- 
tinuing to  explore  better  bike 
paths  and  sidewalks  throughout 
the  one-mile  radius,"  Scott  said. 

Students  have  grumbled  loudly 
about  the  new  policy,  but  Scott 
said  they  are  accepting  it.  "Once 
we  explain  that  our  vision  of 
UNCWas  a  campus  with  two-lane 
roads  and  good  sidewalks  and 
bike  paths  as  opposed  to  four- 
lane  roads  and  lots  of  pavement, 
most  students  agree  that  this  is  a 
good  policy.  It's  just  that  no  one 
wants  to  be  the  first  ones  to  expe- 
rience this  plan  in  action." 


UNCW-TV  produces  area's  only  talk  show 


The  Wilmington  area's  only  hour-long,  weekly 
local  talk  show  is  a  production  of  UNCW-TV. 

Let's  Talk!  UNCW&  You  is  hosted  by  Betty 
Ann  Sanders,  past  chair  of  the  university's 
foundation  board.  It  features  segments 
on  interesting  people  and  programs 
around  campus  and  the  community,  as 
well  as  sports,  business,  health  and  upcom- 
ing events.  The  show  airs  at  noon  Wednesdays 
on  Wilmington  area  Time  Warner  Cable  channel  5,  with  rebroad- 
casts  at  7  p.m.  Fridays  and  Mondays. 

Operating  through  the  Division  for  Public  Service  and  Extended 
Education,  UNCW-TV  is  part  of  The  Learning  Network  of  the  Cape 
Fear,  a  collaborative  effort  among  Cape  Fear  Community  College.

new  $8.5  million  classroom  building  that  i 
built  next  to  Morton  Hall. 

Continued  from  page  3 

UNC  system,  Hosier  pointed 
out.  The  other  problem  is  the 
lack  of  office  space  for  faculty. 
Planned  expansion  focuses  on 
recreational  space  as  well  as  aca- 
demic. 

The  list  of  campus  additions  rec- 
ommended in  the  university's 
master  plan  is  an  exhaustive 
one.  While  the  proposed  school 
of  education  building  is  the  cur- 
rent funding  priority,  work  is  un- 
derway -  in  various  stages  -  on 
several  other  projects:  the  Cen- 
ter for  Marine  Science,  a  class- 
room building  next  to  Morton 
Hall,  the  student  recreation  cen- 
ter and  the  Regional  Visual  and 
PerformingArts  Center  (RVPAC) . 

The  project  closest  to  comple- 
tion is  the  Center  for  Marine  Sci- 
ence at  Myrtle  Grove.  Faculty 
and  staff  will  be  moving  in  dur- 
ing late  November,  and  the 
building  is  expected  to  be  op- 
erational when  the  semester 
starts  in  January. 

The  completion  of  the  $8  mil- 
lion, 64,000-square-foot  student 
recreation  center  is  projected  for 
February  2000.  The  center  fea- 
tures an  indoor  three-lane  track, 
multiple-use  courts,  a  climbing 
wall,  aerobics  and  exercise  class- 
room, exercise  equipment,  of- 
fices and  the  relocated  Hundley 
Wellness  Center.  By  bringing  all 


'ill  be 


these  facilities,  along 
with  nutritional  coun- 
seling, into  one  location, 
students  will  be  intro- 
duced to,  and  will  hope- 
fully maintain,  a  healthy 
lifestyle,  said  Rex 
Pringle,  directorof  cam- 
pus recreation  and  sport 
facilities.  Prospective 
students  rank  the  pres- 
ence of  a  high  quality 
recreation  facility  third 
on  their  list  when  choos- 
ing a  university.  He 
hopes  students  can  go 
to  the  recreation  center 
to  relieve  stress  and  be  better 
prepared  for  the  academic  rig- 
ors of  studying. 

The  new  classroom  building, 
tentatively  scheduled  for 
completion  in  spring  2001,  will 
be  located  on  the  east  side  of 
Morton  Hall.  This  $8.5  million 
project  will  have  15  classroom/ 
seminar  rooms,  television  stu- 
dio, computer  labs,  office  space 
for  faculty  and  common  areas. 
It  will  house  political  science, 
social  work,  communication 
studies  and  foreign  languages  & 
literatures  departments  and  will 
have  space  for  film  studies  and 
business  programs. 

There  has  been  preliminary 
planning  and  a  design  estab- 
lished for  the  Regional  Visual 
and  PerformingArts  Center.  The 
plans  place  the  building  in  the 
wooded  area  along  Randall  and 
Reynolds  drives.  Dean  Jo  Ann 
Seiple  said  the  College  of  Arts 
and  Sciences  has  inadequate  fa- 
cilities to  support  its  arts  pro- 
grams. Primarily  an  academic 
building,  the  new  facility  will 
house  the  departments  of  mu- 
sic, art,  theatre,  creative  writing 
and  film  studies.  The  200,000- 
square-foot  building  will  in- 
clude computer  labs,  a  film 
screening  room,  a  lecture  hall,  a 
recital  hall  and  classrooms.  Ad- 
ministration suites  will  provide 
offices  for  faculty. 


The  community  will  benefit  from 
thisbuildingas  well.  Withal, 500- 
seat  performance  hall,  programs 
by  groups  such  as  the  Wilming- 
ton Symphony  and  the  Moscow 
Ballet  will  be  offered  to  a  grow- 
ing audience.  Also  available  to 
both  the  public  and  students  will 
be  an  art  gallery.  A  parking  deck 
serving  this  building  should 
eliminate  parking  constraints 
that  exist  currently  with  events 
held  in  Kenan  Auditorium.

&a/+/i^/iA&  a/*ea&  around  cam/M4& 
feroou/c  c/icuice^/ofv  reflection 


By  Linda  C.  Grattafioh  '77 


A  vibrant  tropical  plant  accompanied 
by  a  welcome  message  and 
introduction  to  the  arboretum  awaited 
each  of  UNCW's  2,200  students  residing 
in  on-campus  housing  on  Move-In  day 
in  August.  Well-received,  the  plants 
immediately  added  life  to  the  student's 
new  home  away  from  home. 

All  students  and  staff  alike  continue  to 
benefit  from  the  campus-wide 
arboretum  plan  set  in  motion  by 
Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  three  years 
ago  to  make  UNCW  the  first  university 
in  the  16-campus  system  to  commit  to 
becoming  an  institutional  arboretum. 

This  bold  plan,  designed  by  landscape 
architects,  divides  the  650-acre 
campus  into  nine  landscape  zones. 
One  of  these,  the  Historic  Core  or 
Heritage  Garden,  is  now  bearing  fruit 
from  shrubs  such  as  the  fragrant  tea 
olive,  nandina,  laurustinus  viburnum, 
American  beautyberry  and  banana 
shrub  that  provide  shelter  and  berries 
for  birds. 

Garden  lovers  appreciate  the 
historical  aspects  of  the  Heritage 
Garden,  enclosed  by  UNCW's  first 
three  Georgian-style  buildings, 
Alderman,  Hoggard  and  James.  These 
buildings  horseshoe  around  a  five- 
acre  space  called  the  Quad,  the  icon 
image  for  one  of  the  South's  top  seven 
regional  universities. 

"Fifteen  years  ago,  the  cultivated  areas 
of  the  campus  still  had  the  look  of  a 
starched  white  shirt,"  said  Robert 
Warren,  superintendent  of  landscape 


services.  "With  the  old-fashioned  plant 
palette  of  the  Heritage  garden  in  place, 
there's  a  softer,  almost  embroidered 
feel  to  the  900-foot  view  from  College 
Road  to  Hoggard  Hall.  Visitors,  60  and 
over,  can  say,  'I  remember  that  plant 
from  my  grandmother's  garden.'" 

Framed  by  majestic  live  oaks  under- 
planted  with  daffodils  and  18,000 
plugs  of  English  ivy,  the  long  axial  vista 
shines  on  a  stand  of 
Bermuda  lawn  over- 
seeded  with  Italian  rye 
that  measures  some 
200  feet  across.  In  the 
lower  canopy  of  the 
oaks,  red  maple,  tulip 
poplar  and  willow  oak 
add  shade  value  and 
shelter  from  the 
elements.  Fragrant 
plantings  of  tea  olive 
lean  toward  the 
passerby  along  the  u- 
shaped  walkway. 

Tim  Necaise, 
arboretum  curator,  and 
Karen  Tobiassen, 
landscape 

horticulturist,  selected 
flora  that  have  the 
charm  of  a  southern 
garden  and  the 
strength  to  endure 
coastal  ecology. 
Consulting  highly 
respected  publications 
such  as  Twin  Leaf 
Nursery-Thomas 


Jefferson  Center  for  Historical  Plants, 
The  Southern  Garden  by  Elizabeth 
Lawrence  and  Herbaceous  Perennial 
Plants  by  Allan  Armitage,  hollyhocks, 
false  blue  indigo,  fringed  bleeding 
hearts  and  sweet  Williams  were  chosen 
for  their  historical  impact  as  well  as 
their  adaptability. 

In  keeping  with  the  requirements  of 
the  American  Association  of  Botanical 


Students  often  take  advantage  of  many  benches  placed  around  campus  to 
do  a  little  outdoor  studying  between  classes.

UNCW  Magazine 


Gardens  and  Arboreta  (AABGA),  400 
plant  signs  have  been  installed,  and 
more  will  be  added  in  the  weeks 
ahead.  Necaise  has  identified  and 
labeled  700  plants  throughout  the 
campus  according  to  common  and 
botanical  names,  family  and  country 
of  origin.  In  some  cases,  a  special 
message  is  used  in  lieu  of  country  of 
origin  to  recognize  the  plant  as  a  gift 
or  memorial. 

Part  of  this  identified  collection  is  the 
herb  garden  that  fronts  Hoggard  Hall 
behind  a  half-moon  bricked  entrance 
terrace.  Three  dozen  herbs  -  fragrant, 
edible,  dye  and  medicinal  -  comprise 
the  first  completed  teaching  garden  of 
the  landscape  zone  called  the 
Academic  Core.  Hoggard  Hall,  home  to 
the  nursing  department,  uses  this 
garden  to  teach  about  folk  and  herbal 
medicine  in  several  courses  such  as 
Families  in  Rural  and  Urban 
Communities. 

"Herbs  have  become  a  real  part  of 
medicine,"  said  Brett  Welden,  a 
master's  degree  nursing  student.  "It's 
exciting  to  see  the  actual  plants  in  a 
garden.  They're  beautiful  in  their 
natural  state." 


You  don't  have  to  be  a  nursing  student 
to  enjoy  the  28-by- 12-foot  herb  garden 
that  features  lavender,  silver 
germander,  French  tarragon,  English 
thyme,  purple  sage  and  a  host  of  other 
sensual  delights.  Benches  of  wrought 
iron  and  mahogany  provide  a  place  to 
rest  or  engage  in  conversation. 

"We've  created  a  sense  of  space  that  has 
some  holding  power,"  Necaise  said.  "It 
feels  quite  different  than  it  did  before." 

Necaise  is  now  meeting  with 
department  heads  of  the  Social  and 
Behavioral  Sciences  Building  to  plan  a 
theme  for  a  second  teaching  garden  in 
the  Academic  Core. 

The  anchor  to  the  Academic  Core  is 
the  Campus  Commons,  an  attractive 
meeting  place  in  front  of  Randall 
Library  that  features  a  three-pronged 
lake  with  lighted  fountains,  a  network 
of  sidewalks  and  an  open-air 
amphitheater. 

Inviting,  with  a  park-like  atmosphere, 
students  are  often  seen  studying  on 
the  grassy  knoll  that  leads  down  to  the 
amphitheater  where  outdoor  concerts 
are  frequently  held. 


Shade  trees  along  the  pond  area  help 
define  space  and  deter  the  growth  of 
algae  in  the  water.  The  Vascular  Flora 
of  the  Carolinas  proved  to  be  a 
wonderful  reference  for  selecting  bog 
plants  to  border  the  ponds. 

This  past  summer,  Boy  Scout  Troop 
200  and  their  parents  added  native 
plants  to  the  pond  borders,  such  as  Joe 
Pye  weed,  yellow  flag  iris,  Brazilian 
verbena  and  a  variety  of  cone  flowers 
and  ornamental  grasses. 

A  strong  entry  point  and  eastern 
boundary  for  the  commons  is  the 
Leadership  Grove.  Some  35  trees  are 
planted  here  to  honor  some  of  those 
people  who've  shown  outstanding 
leadership  at  the  university. 

Framed  by  longleaf  pines,  this  broad 
swath  of  trees  beyond  the  ponds 
connects  the  two  conservation  areas. 

"When  the  trees  mature,"  Necaise  said, 
"the  canopies  will  touch,  providing  a 
rich  screen  of  foliage." 

Staff,  students  and  visitors  alike  enjoy 
the  nature  trails  in  the  conservation 
areas  for  their  educational  resources 
and  their  sheer  beauty.

The  Campus  Commons  in  the  center  of  campus  near  the  University  Union  has  been  evolving  over 
the  [ast  two  years  as  plantings  mature  and  provide  a  shady  respite  for  students. 


November  8,  UNCW's  10-acre 
Bluethenthal  Wildflower  Preserve 
officially  celebrated  its  25lh 
anniversary.  Known  for  its  collection 
of  insectivorous  plants  such  as  Venus 
flytraps  and  pitcher  plants,  the 
preserve  has  invited  the  study  and 
admiration  of  horticulturists  and  lay 
people  alike. 

Virginia  sweetspire,  a  native  shrub 
with  brilliant  fall  foliage,  grows  wild  in 
the  preserve.  Sweetspire  shows 
outstanding  adaptability  in  both  shade 
and  sun.  It  prefers  moist,  fertile  soil, 
but  is  also  drought  tolerant. 

A  majestic  cultivar  of  sweetspire, 
Henry  Garnet,  shows  rich  reddish- 
purple  in  the  fall  and  grows  about 
three  to  four  feet  tall  and  wide.  Six- 
inch-long  white  flowering  racemes 
appear  in  late  May.  UNCW  has  mass 
plantings  of  Henry  Garnet  along  the 
eastern  end  of  Randall  Library,  facing 
the  commons. 

On  the  UNCW  campus,  several  tree 
species  have  shown  tolerance  to 
hurricane  force  winds.  Southern 
magnolias,  live  oaks,  bald  cypress  and 
river  birch  fared  well  due  to  the 
strength  of  their  wood  and  pliability  of 
their  branches.  These  trees  are  native 
to  southeastern  North  Carolina, 
manifest  excellent  ornamental 
characteristics  and  provide  shade  for 
students  to  study  outdoors. 


"There  are  practical  reasons  for 
enhancing  the  outdoor  environment," 
said  Andy  Jackson,  head  of  the 
Psychology  Department.  "People  who 
work  in  a  beautiful  setting  have  a  more 
positive  attitude." 

"We've  seen  amazing  growth  in 
Wilmington  during  the  past  10  years," 
Necaise  said.  "Every  day,  60,000  cars 
drive  by  UNCW.  I'm  grateful  that  we 
can  provide  large  park-like  areas 
where  people  can  relax  and  reflect  on 
what's  truly  important  in  their  lives." 

All  parties  responsible  for  the 
successful  beginnings  of  UNCW's 
campus-wide  arboretum  -  from  the 
freshmen  who  are  now  learning  to 
share  the  concept  to  the 
administration  that's  helping  it  grow- 
invite  you  to  enjoy  the  fruits  of  the 
university's  spacious  gardens.

Trust  established 
for  meditation 
garden  on  campus 

Through  the  generosity  of  an  anonymous 
donor,  the  arboretum  will  receive  a  big  fi- 
nancial boost  in  the  future. 

A  trust  established  for  the  arboretum  will 
transfer  ownership  of  stock  to  the  univer- 
sity some  years  from  now.  The  gift  is  the 
first  ever  to  provide  endowed  support  to 
the  arboretum. 

It  will  fund  the  construction  and  mainte- 
nance of  a  meditation  garden  on  the  cam- 
pus. As  requested  by  the  donor,  the  garden 
will  have  a  brick  screening  wall,  fountain 
and  pool,  hardscaped  plaza  and  benches. 
Plantings  would  be  abundant,  but  in  an 
understated  style  similar  to  Japanese  gar- 
dens. Its  exact  location  will  be  determined 
at  a  later  date. 

"The  garden  will  provide  a  wonderful  quiet, 
contemplative  space  for  the  university 
community.  Spaces  like  this  on  campus  will 
become  increasingly  important  as  UNCW 
continues  its  rapid  growth,"  said  Tim 
Necaise,  arboretum  curator. 

Class  of  2000  has  plans 
for  Millennium  Clock 

The  UNCW  Class  of  2000  has  taken  on  the 
ambitious  effort  to  erect  a  50-foot  clock 
tower  with  Westminster  chimes  on  the 
Campus  Commons. 

The  Millennium  Clock  Tower  Committee, 
headed  by  Senior  Class  President  Shane 
Fernando,  is  seeking  financial  backing  from 
students,  alumni,  faculty  and  staff  as  well 
as   local  businesses,  individuals  and 
corporations  to  raise  $80,000.  Donors' 
names  will  be  inscribed  in  the  brick  plaza 
around  the  clock  tower. 

More  information  on  the  clock  tower  can 
be  obtained  by  contacting  Fernando  at

Teaching  takes  on  new  focus  for  provost 

By  Phillip  Brown 


Teaching  is  more  than  a  profession  for 
John  C.  Cavanaugh,  UNCW's  new  pro- 
vost and  vice  chancellor  for  academic 
affairs.  It  is  a  passion. 

"All  I  have  ever  wanted  to  do  in  life  is 
teach  at  the  college  level,"  said 
Cavanaugh  who  earned  a  bachelor's 
degree  in  psychology  from  the  Univer- 
sity of  Delaware  and  master's  and  doc- 
toral degrees  from  the  University  of 
Notre  Dame. 

As  UNCW's  chief  academic  officer, 
Cavanaugh  guides  the  university's 
scholastic  mission.  For  one  who  loves 
teaching,  assuming  UNCW's  top  aca- 
demic administrative  job  could  be 
viewed  as  a  departure. 

"That's  not  the  case,"  said  Cavanaugh. 
"As  an  advocate  for  the  university's 
academic  community,  my  first  priority 
is  to  UNCW's  learning  environment.  I 
want  UNCW  to  be  the  best  possible 
place  for  students  and  faculty  to 
learn." 

As  an  administrator,  Cavanaugh  said 
he  will  continue  to  teach,  but  just  not 
in  the  traditional  role. 

UNCW  Magazine 


"One  facet  of  my  job  is  to  teach  the 
public  about  the  university.  This  insti- 
tution can  make  a  huge  difference  in 
the  lives  of  the  students  and  this  com- 
munity," said  Cavanaugh.  "The  com- 
munity needs  to  know  about  the  work 
we  do  and  how  they  benefit." 

While  teaching  about  UNCW, 
Cavanaugh  said  he  is  relying  on  feed- 
back from  alumni,  faculty,  staff,  stu- 
dents and  the  community  to  shape  the 
university's  academic  future. 

"As  I  explore  how  to  improve  the  qual- 
ity of  our  academic  curriculum  01  add 
new  programs  in  selected  areas, 
alumni  feedback  is  critical,"  said 
Cavanaugh.  "Alumni  can  provide  in- 
formation on  how  well-prepared  they 
were  to  undertake  jobs  or  graduate 
study.  We  can't  think  we're  covering 
all  the  bases  and  find  out  later  we 
have  gaps." 

In  addition  to  providing  feedback, 
alumni  can  take  active  roles  in  helping 
improve  the  quality  and  diversity  of 
UNCW's  student  body. 

"Alumni  are  our  best  ambassadors  for 


the  UNCW  experience,"  said 
Cavanaugh,  adding  that  as  alumni 
numbers  increase,  UNCW  will  benefit 
from  legacy  enrollment.  "There  are 
UNCW  graduates  who  are  now  think- 
ing about  where  to  send  their  sons  and 
daughters.  This  will  be  significant  to 
future  recruitment.  For  many  alumni, 
we  are  not  the  same  institution  which 
they  attended.  We've  become  larger 
and  more  complex,  but  I  want  them  to 
know  that  we're  still  concerned  with 
providing  the  best  education  pos- 
sible." 

Student  recruitment  and  telling 
UNCW's  story  is  important  to 
Cavanaugh.  While  he  knew  UNCW  had 
a  growing  academic  reputation,  he  dis- 
covered  UNCW  "is  better  than  I 
thought.  A  lot  of  change  has  taken 
place  in  the  last  10  years,"  said 
Cavanaugh.  "In  the  UNC  system,  this 
is  the  place  to  be." 

Cavanaugh  added  that  the  leadership 
by  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  is 
among  the  best  in  the  system.  "The 
university  has  a  lot  of  innovative  pro-    j 
grams,  and  it  shows  in  faculty  recruit-    I 

Fall/Winter  99  I 


ment.  In  addition,  UNCW  is  the  right 
size  for  me.  Having  close  contact  with 
the  students  is  important." 

In  order  to  continue  to  develop  the 
academic  mission,  the  university  must 
receive  strong  public  support,  said 
Cavanaugh. 

"In  the  past,  many  universities  strayed 
from  their  connection  to  the  commu- 
nity. Universities  are  often  a  catalyst 
for  change  and  growth,  which  I  think 
has  been  the  case  here  in  Wilming- 
ton," said  Cavanaugh.  "I  want  to  look 
to  the  community  for  partnership  op- 
portunities. UNCW  is  a  resource  with  a 
breadth  of  expertise  to  look  at  an  issue 
from  multiple  points  of  view  —  eco- 
nomic, political,  social  and  environ- 
mental. 

"Without  public  support,  we're  out  of 
business.  During  the  past  20  years,  it 
has  become  harder  for  the  public  to 
know  what  we  do  beyond  confer  de- 
grees," said  Cavanaugh.  "We  must 
show  the  public  the  payoff  that  re- 
search and  scholarship  can  make  in 
their  everyday  lives." 

Testing  water  quality,  nurturing  future 
writers,  preparing  new  generations  of 
nurses  and  business  leaders  and 
training  tomorrow's  teachers  are 
just  a  few  examples  of  the  many 
benefits  to  the  community,  re- 
gion, state  and  nation,  said 
Cavanaugh. 

Teacher  preparation  is  of  particu- 
lar importance  as  the  state  will 
experience  a  major  teacher  short- 
age within  the  next  decade. 

"UNCW  has  a  heritage  of  teacher 
preparation,  and  the  Watson 
School  of  Education  is  highly  re- 
garded in  the  system,"  said 
Cavanaugh.  "We  have  an  obliga- 
tion to  maintain  that  leadership 
which  underscores  the  need  for 
the  construction  of  a  new  facility 
to  house  the  school.  The  pro- 
posed state-of-the-art  facility 
will  allow  us  to  expand  the  pro- 
gram and  look  for  innovative 
measures  to  respond  to  the 
needs  of  teachers." 


As  the  millennium  approaches,  higher 
education  administrators  must  also 
confront  life-long  learning  and  tech- 
nology issues,  said  Cavanaugh. 

"A  four-year  degree  is  the  beginning  of 
a  life-long  learning  program  for  career 
professionals,"  said  Cavanaugh.  "The 
university  must  be  ready  to  meet  this 
demand  for  on-going  career  training 
through  traditional  graduate  degree 
programs  as  well  as  workshops  and 
classes  to  prepare  individuals  for  the 
complexity  of  problems  in  the  future." 

While  colleges  have  not  historically 
operated  under  this  premise, 
Cavanaugh  said  the  future  will  dictate 
a  change  in  how  colleges  and  universi- 
ties educate.  "In  the  future,  there  will 
be  a  greater  emphasis  on  interdiscipli- 
nary curricula  that  will  require  majors 
who  have  been  exposed  to  a  broad 
program  of  study  across  departmental 
lines." 

Many  universities  are  using  technology, 
such  as  distance  learning  and  the 
World  Wide  Web,  to  deal  with  restricted 
classroom  space  and  life-long  learning 
issues.  But  will  the  university  of  the  fu- 
ture be  consigned  to  cyberspace? 


"Technology  is  not  an  end  in  itself,  but 
a  tool  to  use,"  said  Cavanaugh.  "Cur- 
rent technology  will  not  put  a  dent  in 
the  desire  for  people  to  come  together 
as  a  community,  with  a  teacher,  to  dis- 
cuss and  debate  a  topic." 

Instead,  the  task  facing  universities 
is  how  to  keep  abreast  of  the 
changes  in  technology  and  fund  its 
implementation. 

"Employers  expect  graduates  to  have 
the  technical  skills  necessary  to  under- 
take the  job,"  said  Cavanaugh. 
"Changing  technological  requirements 
are  a  financial  burden  both  on  stu- 
dents and  administration.  The  chal- 
lenge is  to  provide  the  best  access  to 
technology  in  the  most  affordable  way. 
I  look  forward  to  that  challenge  of  pro- 
viding UNCW  students  the  best  educa- 
tional environment  balanced  by  the 
best  use  of  technology. " 

Dr.  Cavanaugh  encourages  alumni, 
faculty,  staff  and  students  to  e-mail 
comments  to  cavanaugh@uncwil.edu.

While  teaching  the  public  about  UNCW,  John  Cavanaugh  said  he  is  relying  on  feedback  from  students  like 
UNCW  Ambassadors  Anna  Elliot,  Megan  Karlsson  and  Mike  Simone,  as  well  as  alumni,  faculty,  staff  and  the 
community  to  shape  the  university's  academic  future.

UNCW  Alumni  Association  1969-1999 

€ tim& to ftemember  .  .  .  & time< to- looAforwarcl 


The  year  was  1 969. 
Wilmington  College 
had  become  the  Uni- 
versity of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilming- 
ton. Dr.  William  H. 
Wagoner  was  named 
chance;.'  "jr. 

The  first  UNCW  Alumni 
Association  meeting  - 
organized  by  the  Pio- 
neers who  were  the 
group's  first  financial 
supporters  -  was  held 
Nov.  18,  1969,  with  W.  Al 
Corbett  '65  serving  as 
chair.  UNCW  staff  assist- 
ing with  the  association 
were  David  E.  Warner, 
lr.,  Gwen  Culbreth 
Tidwell  '67  and  Joyce 
Jackson  Williams.  Also 
in  1969,  Wise  House  was 
deeded  to  the  university 
by  Lawrence  Lewis,  Jr. 
and  Mrs.  Mary  Wiley. 
The  first  gift  to  the  uni- 
versity was  made  by 
Greer  Craig  III  '67. 

The  first  homecoming 
celebration  was  held  in 
February  1970,  and  the 
association's  first  scho- 
lastic achievement 
awards  were  presented 
to  David  I.  Jones  and 
James  G.  Thorton. 
Tidwell  researched  reg- 
istrar office  files  and 
telephone  directories 
from  around  the  South 
to  develop  the  first 
alumni  database,  using 
index  cards  in  a  box  as 
her  filing  system.  It 
wasn't  until  1972  the 
files  were  computerized. 
Both  Tidwell  and  Will- 
iams became  known  as 
"Sherlock  Holmes"  for 
their  diligent  search  for 
alumni  and  keeping 
their  records  current. 

The  association  held  its 
first  alumni  golf  tourna- 


ment at  Duck  Haven 
Country  Club  in  1973. 
Association  dues  were 
just  $2.  The  Alumnus/ 
Alumna  of  the  Year 
Award  was  established 
in  1974,  and  James  R. 
Cook  was  the  first  to  be 
honored  in  1976.  The 
first  formal  request  for 
alumni  support  in  1976 
resulted  in  a  $1,000  gift 
to  the  Trask  Health  & 
Physical  Education 
Building  Support  Fund. 
With  Tidwell  as  chair, 
the  alumni  association 
enjoyed  the  first  of  sev- 
eral successful  casino 
night  events  at  Bob 
King's  car  dealership. 

In  1977,  Bob  King  '66 
organized  the  first  pre- 
game  social  in  the 
"Goodwood  Tavern"  - 
now  Hinton  James  Hall. 
He  was  named  Alumnus 
of  the  Year  and  was 
elected  board  chair.  The 
$5  alumni  dues  were  re- 
placed with  contribu- 
tions to  the  Alumni 
Annua]  Fund  Campaign. 

It  was  1979,  and  the 
university's  enrollment 
was  4,258.  The  associa- 
tion donated  $80  to  the 
UNCW  football  club  to 
purchase  new  goalposts 
and  later  made  a  $1,000 
contribution  for  the 
construction  of  campus 
pedestrian  mall  -  "quad- 
rangle" -  estimated  to 
cost  $9,000. 

In  June  1980,  the  Hugh 
Henry  Fox  Memorial 
Scholarship  was  estab- 
lished in  memory  of  the 
first  Wilmington  College 
alumnus  to  die.  The  first 
meeting  of  Charlotte 
area  alumni  was  held  in 
November. 


In  1981,  Tyrone  Rowell, 
as  director  of  develop- 
ment, worked  with  the 
alumni  association.  The 
association  established 
its  first  academic  schol- 
arship. Alumni  giving 
rose  to  $5,309  with  25 
percent  participating.  In 
September,  Connie  J. 
Carter  and  Dianne  C. 
Russell  were  the 
association's  first  merit 
scholars. 

In  1982,  the  association 
made  a  $1,000,  five-year 
pledge  to  assist  in  the 
Trask  Coliseum  air  con- 
ditioning project.  To 
raise  the  money,  mem- 
bers sold  magazine  sub- 
scriptions. On  July  1 
Frank  Bowen  '74  be- 
came the  first  person  to 
work  full-time  in  alumni 
relations.  There  were 
5,500  alumni  in  the  da- 
tabase. Under  Bowen's 
leadership,  UNCW  Am- 
bassadors (alumni-in- 
residence)  and  parents 
programs  were  estab- 
lished; the  first  alumni 
rallies  in  Jacksonville, 
Greensboro  and  Raleigh 
were  held;  the  first  asso- 
ciation chapters  were 
organized  with  Onslow 
County  residents  Ron 
Choate  '72  and  Jim 
Fugate  '71  leading  the 
way;  the  association's 
by-laws  were  updated; 
and  the  tradition  of  pre- 
game  socials  was  estab- 
lished. The  renovation  of 
Wise  House,  which  sat 
abandoned  and  ne- 
glected, was  a  dream  for 
the  struggling  associa- 
tion, Bowen  said.  "We 
needed  more  identity,  a 
place  we  could  call 
home.  Unfortunately," 
he  said,  "We  didn't  have 
any  money." 


In  September  1983, 
Corbett  was  the  first 
alumnus  to  become  a 
member  of  UNCW's 
Board  of  Trustees.  The 
1984-85  Annual  Fund 
raised  $11,398  and 
funded  scholarships, 
campus  improvements, 
awards  and  recognitions, 
socials,  area  meetings, 
Ambassadors,  and  a  por- 
tion of  the  alumni  publi- 
cation UNCW  Today.  In 
1985,  Jessiebeth  Geddie 
was  named  chair  of  the 
newly  established  Cape 
Fear  Alumni  Chapter;  the 
Triangle  Chapter  was  es- 
tablished the  next  year. 

In  1986,  the  Seahawk 
mascot  got  a  new  look. 
And  in  1987,  700  alumni 
donated  more  than 
$30,000  to  the  univer- 
sity. In  1989,  Charles  F. 
Green  III  '71  pledged 
$40,000  to  create  a  fac- 
ulty development  fund 
in  memory  of  Dr.  Tho- 
mas V.  Moseley.  To  in- 
spire alumni  giving  to 
the  Chemistry  Depart- 
ment, Dr.  Will  S. 
DeLoach  offered  to 
match  gifts  up  to  a  total 
of$10,000. 

Shortly  after  graduation, 
Jean  Joyner  '89  was  hired 
as  coordinator  of  parent 
and  Ambassador  pro- 
grams. The  African 
American  Graduates  As- 
sociation (AAGA)  was 
formed  with  nine  mem- 
bers. Bowen  resigned  in 
1990,  and  Carol  King  '83 
was  hired  as  his  replace- 
ment later  that  year.  It 
was  under  her  leadership 
that  plans  for  turning 
Wise  House  into  Wise 
Alumni  House  began  to

M  £^x  A  message  from  the  vice  chancellor 


Dear  UNCW  Alumni  and  Friends: 

As  we  continue  another  exciting  aca- 
demic year,  I  would  like  to  take  the  op- 
portunity to  share  with  you  some 
recent  developments  that  are  shaping 
our  future  at  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  at  Wilmington. 

This  year,  we  are  striving  to  better 
communicate,  educate  and  involve 
you  in  all  of  the  programs  on  the  cam- 
pus. Our  mission  of  research,  teaching 
and  public  service  certainly  extends  to 
our  alumni  and  friends. 

UNCW  is  the  fastest-growing  institu- 
tion in  the  UNC  system,  with  just  un- 
der 10,000  students,  and  continues  to 
lead  the  system  in  growth  rate  with  an 
increase  in  applications  of  1 1 .5  percent 
over  the  previous  year.  More  and  more 
quality  students  want  to  come  to 
UNCW!  We  are  also  proud  of  the  fact 
that  we  are  now  ranked  fourth  aca- 
demically in  the  16-school  system, 
having  moved  up  four  places  in  the  last 
eight  years,  trailing  only  Chapel  Hill, 
Asheville  and  NC  State. 

If  you  have  not  had  the  opportunity  to 
visit  our  campus  recently,  you  will  be 
amazed  to  see  the  new  facilities  that 
have  been  constructed  or  are  in  the 
works.  A  new  marine  science  research 
center  and  student  recreation  center 
are  nearing  completion.  In  the  planning 
stages  are  a  regional  school  of  educa- 
tion building  and  an  academic  building 
to  house  the  art  and  theatre,  creative 
writing,  film  studies  and  music  depart- 
ments and  which  may  include  a  re- 
gional performance  hall.  Also  planned 
are  a  sports  medicine  complex  and  nu- 
merous dormitories  and  classroom 
buildings  embraced  by  a  beautifully- 
landscaped  arboretum  campus. 

With  these  recent  plans  and  additions, 
UNCW  remains  committed  to  its  fac- 
ulty, staff,  the  southeastern  North 
Carolina  community,  and  most  impor- 
tantly, to  its  students  —  past,  present 


McDowell 


and  future.  At- 
tributes former 
students  remem- 
ber about  UNCW 
are  still  the  same: 
small  classes  with 
dedicated  faculty, 
a  wide  variety  of 
student  activities 
and  athletic 
events,  caring  and 
supportive  staff, 

and  a  breathtaking  campus  dedicated 
to  preserving  its  environment. 

UNCW  celebrates  another  important 
anniversary  this  year:  the  30th  anniver- 
sary of  its  alumni  association  and  the 
dedicated  programs  and  chapters  that 
serve  our  alumni  nationwide.  We  ac- 
knowledge those  leaders  who  have 
made  the  alumni  association  a  national 
award  winner  for  its  commitment  to 
serving  the  UNCW  community. 

I  hope  you  will  take  advantage  of 
UNCW  Magazine,  various  departmen- 
tal newsletters  and  especially  our  rede- 
signed website  -  www.uncwil.edu  -  to 
stay  informed  and  keep  in  touch  with 
all  that  is  happening  on  campus. 

Witir  more  information,  we  hope  you 
will  feel  even  better  about  your  alma 
mater  and  consider  investing  in  its  con- 
tinued success.  Over  the  course  of  the 
1999-2000  year,  you  will  have  several  op- 
portunities to  support  UNCW.  These  are 
exciting  times  at  UNCW,  and  we  hope 
you  will  remain  committed  to  our  mis- 
sion and  our  students. 

Above  all  else,  I  want  to  thank  you  for 
your  continued  commitment  to  the 
university. 

Best  wishes, 

Patton  McDowell 

Vice  Chancellor,  University  Advancement

"The  leadership  for  Project  2002  that  has  been  shown  by  Dr. 
William  Nixon,  Dr.  Durwood  Almkuist  and  the  Wilmington  Or- 
thopaedic Group,  alongwith  the  Boseman  family,  George  Rountree 
and  David  Jones,  has  allowed  us  to  make  this  dream  a  reality, "  said 
Chris  Delisio,  executive  di- 
rector of  the  Seahawk  Club. 
Byjune30, 1999,nearly$2.1 
million  was  raised  toward 
the  goal  of  $4.4  million. 

Project  2002,  started  two 
years  ago,  was  initiated  to 
upgrade  existing  athletic 
facilities  to  help  the  Sea- 
hawks  remain  competitive 
in  the  Colonial  Athletic  As- 
sociation and  increase  re- 
cruiting appeal. 


Dr.  William  Nixon  is  one  of  several 
generous  benefactors  leading  the  Project 
2002  fund-raising  effort. 


"This  athletic  program  is  a 
big  asset  to  the  university, 
as  well  as  the  community, " 
Dr.  Nixon  said.  "We  need  more  benefactors  and  more  contribu- 
tors to  make  it  even  more  successful." 

Phase  II  includes  an  18,000-square-foot  sports  medicine  building 
and  a  substantial  addition  to  the  Nixon  Annex.

A  $40,000  endowment  from  the 
Cape  Fear  Memorial  Founda- 
tion is  being  matched  by 
UNCW's  Division  for  Student 
Affairs  to  fund  CROSSROADS' 
Co-op:  Peer  Education  Program. 
It  was  developed  with  New  Ha- 
nover High  School  to  deal  with 
the  increasing  use  of  alcohol  and 
drugs  by  young  students. 


The  pilot  program  is  modeled 
on  UNCW's  CROSSROADS 
with  university  students  serv- 
ing as  role  models  and  sub- 
stance abuse  educators. 
University  volunteers  will  re- 
cruit and  educate  students  at 
New  Hanover  High  Schools  to 
become  peer  educators.

Recognizing  the  lack  of  advanced  training  for  middle  school  adminis- 
trators in  southeastern  North  Carolina,  the  Watson  School  of  Education 
is  working  to  fill  the  void  with  a  $30,000  grant  from  the  CP&L  Founda-

A  $50,000  endowment  es- 
tablished by  the  Indepen- 
dent Insurance  Agents  of 
North  Carolina  will  assist 
students  in  the  UNCW  Cam- 
eron School  of  Business. 

"In  the  last  eight  years, 
UNCW's  Cameron  School  of 
Business  has  grown  to  boast 
a  proud  1,450  undergradu- 
ates, of  which  80  percent 
work  while  attending  school. 
With  this  scholarship  en- 
dowment, some  of  our  stu- 
dents will  be  able  to  cutback 
on  their  hours  of  work  and  concen- 
trate more  on  their  studies,"  said 
Howard  Rockness,  dean  of  the  Cam- 
eron School  of  Business.  "Not  only 
does  this  gift  represent  support  for 
our  business  program,  but  it  raises 
the  visibility  of  risk  management  and 
insurance  as  a  career  opportunity."

Dean  Howard  Rockness  (third  from  left)  accepts  a  $50,000  check

on  the  UNCW  Foundation  Board  of  Directors,  on  behalf  of  IIANC.

take  shape.  John  Baldwin 
72  was  a  driving  force 
behind  that  effort,  which 
led  to  a  $450,000  loan  to 
renovate  the  house.  That 
year  was  also  a  momen- 
tous one  for  the  university 
as  Dr.  William  Wagoner 
retired  and  Dr.  James  R. 
Leutze  was  installed  as  the 
new  chancellor. 

In  1991,  the  MBA 
Alumni  Chapter  was  es- 
tablished. Although  it 
would  take  years  to  get 
off  the  ground,  the 
UNCW  license  plate  pro- 
motion was  started  by 
King  in  1992.  Also  that 
year,  Barbie  Cowan  was 
hired  as  the  first  support 
staff  person  for  alumni 
relations.  When  King 
resigned  later  diat  year, 
Cowan  served  as  interim 
director. 

With  Baldwin  as  chair  in 
1993,  the  association 
and  university  hired  Pa- 
tricia Corcoran  72  as 
alumni  director,  and  the 
pieces  of  the  Wise  House 
puzzle  began  to  fall  into 
place.  The  association's 
activities  became  finan- 
cially driven  as  nearly 
everything  focused  on 
paying  off  the  renova- 
tion loan  from  United 
Carolina  Bank.  Pat 
Hawkins,  Cherry 
Woodbury,  Beth  Cherry, 
Nannette  White  and 
Cara  Hayes  were  project 
managers  for  various 
fund-raising  events.  A 
variety  of  strategies  were 
employed  to  pay  off  the 
debt,  including  Hard 
Hat  Parties  where  parts 
of  the  house  were 
"sold,"  the  raffle  of  a 
Boston  Whaler  in  1994, 
the  Designers'  Showcase 


and  Day  with  Martha 
Stewart  in  1995,  the  Fan- 
tasy Auction  in  1996  and 
CMC  Jimmy  raffle  in 
1997.  Association  offices 
moved  to  Wise  Alumni 
House  in  1994,  and  the 
house  was  dedicated  on 
June  7,  1997. 

Even  though  alumni  no 
longer  administered  the 
Ambassadors  program, 
alumni  outreach  to  stu- 
dents continued  with 
annual  gifts  to  incoming 
freshmen.  On  May  13, 
1994,  the  association 
hosted  its  first  gradu- 
ates' reception  at  Wise 
Alumni  House,  a  semi- 
annual event  that  con- 
tinued through  1998.  In 
1995  the  association 
teamed  up  with  the  ad- 
missions office  to  host 
freshman  send-off  par- 
ties in  Richmond,  Ra- 
leigh and  Charlotte. 

With  19,000  alumni  in 
the  database  in  1993, 
regional  alumni  gather- 
ings were  on  the  rise  at 
Jacksonville,  Fay- 
etteville,  Charlotte, 
Elizabethtown,  Greens- 
boro and  Hickory.  These 
would  continue  in  vari- 
ous forms  throughout 
the  rest  of  the  decade  - 
UNCW  Days,  the  Golden 
Tour  and  Road  Rallies. 

In  1994,  Gene  Warren 
gave  the  first  presenta- 
tion in  the  semiannual 
Alumni  Lecture  Series. 
The  first  credit  card  ben- 
efiting the  alumni  asso- 
ciation was  offered 
through  BB&T,  Trade 
Chadwick  '94  was  hired 
as  alumni  relations  of- 
fice assistant  and  Mike 
Arnold  '93,  '99M  was 
hired  as  alumni  relations 
assistant. 


In  1995  the  first  alumni 
directory  was  published, 
the  first  Wilmington  Col- 
lege Reunion  was  held, 
the  Alumni  Student 
Connection  program 
was  established  and  the 
association  got  a  toll- 
free  number.  The  num- 
ber of  alumni  totaled 
23,000.  AAGA  became  a 
constituent-based 
alumni  chapter.  New 
chapters  chartered  were 
the  School  of  Nursing, 
the  Watson  School  of 
Education  and  Commu- 
nication Studies. 

The  association  entered 
cyberspace  in  1996  with 
the  creation  of  its  own 
Website  and  electronic 
update  form. 

As  die  university  cel- 
ebrated its  golden  anni- 
versary, the  association 
held  a  special  appeal  ask- 
ing alumni  to  contribute 
$19.47  in  recognition  of 
the  year  the  institution 
was  founded.  Fund-rais- 
ing began  for  the  first 
chapter-based  endowed 
scholarship,  by  the  Com- 
munication Studies 
Chapter  in  memory  of 
Betty  Jo  Welch.  Mickey 
Corcoran  70  led  the  first 
alumni  gift  challenge  as 
part  of  the  50"1  anniver- 
sary celebration.  The  re- 
sult was  $50,000  in  new 
contributions;  1,071 
alumni  and  friends  made 
their  first-ever  gift. 

With  continuing  renova- 
tions funded  by  the  uni- 
versity and  private 
donations,  the  restored 
Wise  Alumni  House  was 
recognized  with  the  His- 
toric Preservation  Foun- 
dation of  North  Carolina 
Gertrude  S.  Carraway 
Award  of  Merit. 


Bob  Williams  77  do- 
nated a  1999  Harley- 
Davidson  Sportster  for 
the  association  to  raffle  - 
"HOG  Wild  for  the 
Hawks."  This  1998  fund- 
raiser brought  the  asso- 
ciation more  than 
$21,000  and  national 
recognition  from  the 
Council  for  the  Advance- 
ment and  Support  of 
Education.  The 
association's  first  en- 
dowed graduate  fellow- 
ship was  established  in 
honor  of  the  Lewis  and 
Wiley  families.  After 
years  of  promotion, 
there  were  over  400  Sea- 
hawk  license  plates  fi- 
nally on  the  road, 
benefitting  the 
association's  student 
scholarship  program. 

At  Homecoming  1999, 
AAGA  celebrated  its  10lh 
year,  and  Tau  Kappa  Ep- 
silon  alumni  celebrated 
their  100lh  anniversary. 
The  MBA  Chapter  was 
expanded  to  the  Cam- 
eron School  of  Business 
Alumni  Chapter,  and  the 
first  Soaring  Chapter 
Award  was  given  to  the 
Cape  Fear  Alumni  Chap- 
ter. There  are  27,000 
alumni  in  the  database, 
and  13  percent  are  do- 
nors. The  University 
Center  is  renamed  in 
honor  of  Robert  F.  War- 
wick '55,  the  first  cam- 
pus building  named  for 
an  alumnus. 

As  the  association  cel- 
ebrates its  30"'  anniver- 
sary this  fall,  it  recognizes 
more  than  30,000  alumni. 
It  continues  to  grow  and 
thrive  with  more  chapter 
and  outreach  programs 
and  continuing  service  to 
the  university.

AAGA 

This  has  been  a  tremendous 
year  of  partnership  for  AAGA, 
the  alumni  association  and  the 
Office  of  Minority  Affairs.  To- 
gether, these  groups  have 
worked  hard  to  build  a  network 
of  minority  alumni  to  support 
minority  students  at  UNCW. 

On  Sept.  9,  they  hosted  their 
annual  get-together  welcoming 
minority  students  to  campus 
and  linking  them  with  minority 
alumni  as  a  resource.  This 
year's  event  had  special  sig-

"I  am  deeply  appreciative  of 
the  efforts  being  made  by  the 
alumni  association  to  support 
AAGA  as  an  official  alumni

Bordeaux  finds  'cause'  in  UNCW 


Volunteerism  is  a  word  I  came  to  un- 
derstand at  an  early  age.  My  parents, 
Bob  and  Judy  Williams,  always  in- 
stilled within  me  the  importance  of 
giving  back  to  a  cause  that  has  given 
you  pleasure  and  fulfillment. 

Being  born  and  raised  in  Wilmington 
and  graduating  from  UNCW  -  the  uni- 
versity has  truly  become  my  "cause."  It 
is  such  a  privilege  to  live  in  this  com- 
munity and  to  have  the  opportunity  to 
represent  this  university  by  serving  as 
this  year's  chairman  of  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association.  My  goals  for  this 
year  include: 

•  To  promote  the  30th  anniversary  for 
the  UNCW  Alumni  Association 
through  special  events,  volunteer  op- 
portunities and  financial  support 

•  To  assist  the  university  in  creating 
stable,  continuous  funding  for  the 
alumni  association 


•  To  generate  a  higher 
level  of  commitment 
and  involvement  by 
alumni  board  members 
and  to  encourage  their 
financial  support  for 
the  association 


•  To  increase  awareness     Bordeaux 
and  visibility  of  our  as- 
sociation with  one  student  organiza- 
tion to  promote  their  philanthropy 
project  and  to  ensure  its  success 

•  To  improve  the  marketing  strategies 
and  development  of  our  chapters  and 
their  activities  for  the  association. 

For  our  30Ih  anniversary  year,  I  chal- 
lenge you  to  have  a  "cause."  Hopefully 
that  cause  will  include  UNCW  and  the 
alumni  association!  Please  call  on  me 
if  you  wish  to  volunteer  or  assist  in  our 
efforts.

reaching  out  to  you. 

Our  anniversary  theme,

sence of  who  we  are  as

ments and  more  to  get  us  to  1999  and 
this  special  anniversary  date.  Thank 
you,  Bob  King,  the  backbone  of  this 
special  celebration  for  your  dynamic 
support.  You  are  much  more  than  an 
alumni  pioneer,  you  are  a  catalyst  that 
continues  to  support  alumni  activity 
and  never  gets  frayed  by  the  numerous 
details. 

To  Bob  and  all  of  our  special  sponsors 
for  the  30"'  anniversary  -  a  Seahawk 
salute.  We  are  always  here  to  support

Walton  retires 

Jordan  '69  named 
vice  chancellor 
of  business  affairs 


Timothy  A.  Jordan  '69  will  lead 
UNCW's  Division  of  Business  Af- 
fairs following  the  June  30  retire- 
ment of  R.  O.  Walton,  Jr. 

He  was  promoted  from  associ- 
ate vice  chancellor  for  business 
affairs. 

"Tim  has  had  significant  respon- 
sibility for  the  fact  that  UNC 
Wilmington  hasn't  had  an  audit 
exception  in  13  years,  quite  an 
enviable  and  unprecedented 
record,"  said  Chancellor  James 
R.  Leutze.  "I  have  great  confi- 
dence in  Tim  based  on  his  knowl- 
edge of  university  personnel  and 
internal  workings  and  his  great 
devotion  to  UNCW. 

"Even  though  we  will  miss  Bob 
Walton  when  he  retires,  Tim's 
hiring  will  minimize  disruption 
and  provide  a  smooth  transi- 
tion," he  said. 

Chancellor  Leutze  noted  the 
"magnificent  job  Bob  has  done" 
in  developing  the  campus,  man- 
aging the  growth  and  construc- 
tion of  buildings  and  the  growth 
in  the  budget.  "Anyone  who  looks 
at  our  buildings  and  grounds  is 
impressed,"  he  said,  "and  add  to 
that  our  exceptional  audit  trail. 
Bob  has  done  a  tremendous  job. 
He  will  be  sorely  missed." 

During  his  tenure,  Walton  helped 
UNC  Wilmington  grow  to  the  sev- 
enth largest  campus  of  16  in  the 
UNC  system.  As  he  prepared  to 
retire,  Walton  managed  more  than 
.^^^       $60  million  in  new 
^H     construction  on 
the  campus,  in- 
cluding the  re- 
cently completed 
Center  for  Marine 
Science.  Underhis 
leadership,    the 
UNCW    endow- 
ment increased  to 
more  than  $21.5 
million,  the  uni-

operat- 
ing bud- 
get grew 
to  more  than  $  1 28  million  and  the 
value  of  the  physical  plant  rose  to 
$161  million. 

Walton  lent  his  support  and 
money  to  a  successful  faculty/ 
staff  fund-raising  campaign  in 
the  fall,  and  as  a  result,  the 
project  -  Stick  It  to  Bob  -  won  an 
award  from  the  Council  for  the 
Advancement  and  Support  of 
Education  District  III. 

A  member  of  the  last  graduating 
class  of  Wilmington  College  in 
1969  with  a  bachelor's  degree  in 
accounting,  Jordan  was  hired  at 
UNCW  by  the  late  James  A.  Price, 
Jr.  as  the  first  professional  accoun- 
tant ever  employed  at  the  univer- 
sity. Subsequently,  he  went  to  East 
Carolina  University  where  he 
earned  a  master  of  business  ad- 
ministration degree,  then  taught 
two  years  at  Coastal  Carolina 
Community  College  in  Jackson- 
ville. He  was  rehired  at  UNCW  in 
1973asdirectorofaccountingand 
has  been  with  the  university  ever 
since. 

Jordan's  first  accounting  staff 
numbered  seven  people.  As  asso- 
ciate vice  chancellor  he  supervised 
a  staff  of  55  including  accounting, 
budget  office  and  financial  sys- 
tems. He  considers  his  greatest 
achievement  to  be  establishing 
the  accounting  structure  for 
UNCW  that  eventually  influenced 
accounting  structures  at  other 
universities  in  the  state. 

"  I  am  also  really  proud  of  the  cre- 
ative approach  we've  taken  to 
budgeting,"  Jordan  said.  "We 
have  always  tried  to  give  indi- 
vidual budget  managers  as  much 
flexibility  as  possible  while  re- 
maining within  state  guidelines." 


The  UNC  Board  of  Governors  in 
May  approved  the  appointment 
of  Cathy  L.  Barlow  as  dean  of  the 
Watson  School  of  Education  and 
Lawrence  S.  Clark  as  dean  of  the 
Cameron  School  of  Business,  ef- 
fective July  1. 

Barlow  was  interim  dean  of  the 
College  of  Education  and  Behav- 
ioral Sciences  at  Morehead  (Ky.) 
State  University  and  previously 
chaired  the  Department  of  El- 
ementary Reading  and  Special 
Education.  She  was  dean  of  the 
College  of  Education  and  Health 
Sciences  at  the  University  of 
Evansville,  Ind. ,  from  1 992  to  1 994. 

Clark  joins  UNCW  following  six 
years  as  dean  of  the  School  of 
Business  and  Economics  at 
Sonoma  State  University  in 
Rohnert  Park,  CaJif,  where  he 
developed  a  wine  industry  pro- 
gram providing  specialized  busi- 
ness training  for  winery 
managers. 

"The  Watson  School  of  Educa- 


tion has  a  long  history  of  promot- 
ing collaboration  in  southeast- 
ern North  Carolina.  I  am  certain 
Dr.  Barlow  will  add  significantly 
to  these  historical  ties  and  intro- 
duce innovative  approaches  to 
them,"  said  John  Cavanaugh, 
UNCW's  provost  and  vice  chan- 
cellor for  academic  affairs. 

Cavanaugh  noted  that  "Dr.  Clark 
brings  to  UNCW  a  long  record  of 
success  and  innovation  in  work- 
ing with  business  and  industry. 
The  excitement  from  the  Cam- 
eron School  of  Business  faculty 
and  members  of  the  school's  ad- 
visory boards  indicates  a  strong 
level  of  support  which  I  expect 
will  translate  into  an  even  closer 
connection  between  the  Cam- 
eron School  and  the  community." 

Clark  replaces  Howard  Rockness 
who  had  been  dean  since  1993. 
Barlow  replaces  Andrew  Hayes, 
who  was  interim  dean  for  a  year, 
followingthe  appointment  ofRob- 
ert  Tyndall  to  vice  chancellor  for 
information  technology  systems. 


Track  and  field  captures  fourth  CAA  title 


UNC  Wilmington  enhanced  its 
standing  as  the  men's  track  and 
field  kingpin  in  the  Colonial  Ath- 
letic Association  by  capturing  its 
fourth  consecutive  conference 
championship  in  late  April  in 
Richmond,  Va. 

The  Seahawks,  directed  by  in- 
terim coach  Jacquie  Grimes, 
posted  a  26.5  point  victory  over 
runner-up  William  and  Mary  at 
the  CAA  meet. 

Senior  Travis  Corpening  of  Ra- 
leigh captured  first  place  in  the 
high  jump  (6-5)  and  long  jump 


(23-9)  as  the  Seahawks  featured 
seven  CAA  champions.  Sopho- 
more Xavier  Chisholm  won  the 
100-meter  dash  (10.60);  freshman 
Otis  Wilson  took  the  triple  jump 
(48-8);  freshman  Dennis  Caldwell 
came  in  first  in  the  discus  (156- 
6);  and  the  4x100  (41.25)  and 
4x400  (3:13.23)  teams  also 
claimed  CAA  titles. 

Chisholm,  from  Charlotte,  had  a 
hand  -  or  foot  -  in  both  relay 
crowns.  He  ran  the  anchor  on  the 
4x100  and  also  led  off  the  4x400 
relay.

Science  building  named 
to  honor  Dobo  brothers 


UNCW's  new  science  building 
was  dedicated  in  October  in 
honor  of  two  alumni  for  their  vi- 
sion in  establishing  two  private 
utility  systems  that  furthered  the 
growth  and  development  of  New 
Hanover  County. 

Named  Dobo  Hall  for  Gabriel  Wil- 
liam (Bill)  Dobo  and  Robert  (Bob) 
Ridgely  Dobo,  the  $18.5  million, 
100,000-square-foot  building 
opened  in  1996  and  is  home  to 
theChemistry  and  Biological  Sci- 
ences Departments.  Construc- 
tion was  made  possible  by  the 
1993  bond  issue  for  capital  im- 
provements at  UNC  system  uni- 
versities. 

The  Dobo  brothers'  professional 
accomplishments  are  marked  by 
their  innovation  and  dedication 


to  service  and  water  quality.  In 
1 999  they  sold  Cape  Fear  Utilities 
and  Quality  Water  Supplies  to  the 
City  of  Wilmington  for  $22.3  mil- 
lion and  established  charitable 
trusts  to  benefit  UNCW  and  five 
other  nonprofit  groups  in  the 
state.  UNCW  is  the  biggest  ben- 
eficiary and  could  receive  $5  mil- 
lion. 

The  Dobo  brothers,  who  at- 
tended Wilmington  College  in  the 
late  1940s  and  early  1950s,  "will 
leave  a  legacy  for  the  future,  built 
on  their  hard  work  and  enter- 
prise. Wilmington  is  fortunate  to 
have  two  such  public-spirited 
individuals  who  are  willing  to 
make  the  community  a  better 
place  for  all,"  said  Chancellor 
James  R.  Leutze. 


The  2000  class  of  inductees  to  the  UNCW  Sports  Hall  of  Fame  were  David 
Sandlin,  Jay  Neary,  Joel  Gibson  and  Bill  Haywood. 


Bill  and  Barbara  Dobo  and  Dorothy  and  Bob  Dobo  were  recognized  for  their 
support  of  UNCW  with  the  naming  of  the  science  building  in  their  honor. 

Student  recreation  facility  opens 


When  UNCW's  students  want  to 
get  fit  they  can  now  do  it  in  a 
spacious  modern  facility. 

The  $8  million  recreation  center 
opened  April  1 1  with  great  fan- 
fare. 

In  1994  the  Student  Government 
Association  approved  the  student 
fee  increase  to  fund  the  construc- 
tion of  the  center. 

Anchoring  the  facility  is  a  23,690- 
square-foot  sports  forum  with 
three  multipurpose  courts  with  a 
10,290-square-foot  second-level 
elevated  three-lane  track. 

The  6,000-square-foot  fitness 
center,  which  is  twice  the  size  of 
the  facility  at  Hanover  Hall,  has 
state-of-the-art  exercise  equip- 
ment including  elliptical  train- 
ers, treadmills,  stationary  bikes, 
weight  machines  and  free 
weights.  The  building  also  has  a 
2,366-square-foot  aerobics  room 
and  28-foot  climbing  wall. 


Wellness  Services  and  the 
Hundley  Health  Education  Re- 
source Center,  as  well  as  the  Dis- 
cover Outdoor  Center,  have 
moved  their  operations  to  the 
center. 


Stair  climbers  are  just  one  of  the 
many  pieces  of  exercise  equipment 
available  in  the  new  fitness  center. 


Four  inducted  into  UNCW's  Athletic  Hall  of  Fame 


Three  standouts  from  UNC 
Wilmington's  tradition-rich 
baseball  program  and  one  of  the 
early  pioneers  of  Seahawk  bas- 
ketball were  inducted  in  the  third 
class  of  the  Athletic  Hall  of  Fame. 

Joel  Gibson,  Bill  Haywood,  Jay 
Neary  and  David  Sandlin  joined 
11  others  already  enshrined  in 
the  school's  hall. 

i  Gibson  put  together  two  excel- 
lent seasons  as  a  righthanded 

!     pitcher  for  the  Seahawks.  In  1958, 

,  he  posted  an  unblemished  6-0 
record,  with  six  complete  games, 

'     and  followed  that  up  by  going  7- 


4  in  1959.  He  was  the  first  Sea- 
hawk  to  sign  a  professional  con- 
tract and  have  a  baseball  card. 

A  dominating  pitcher,  Haywood 
was  a  starting  hurler  for  Wilm- 
ington College's  1961  national 
championship  team  and  1962 
national  runner-up  squad.  He 
posted  a  combined  record  of  17- 
3  over  two  seasons.  Today, 
Haywood  is  head  baseball  coach 
at  Georgia  Southwestern  State 
University. 

Neary  was  one  of  the  program's 
dominant  big  men  in  its  early 
basketball  days.  In  three  seasons 


at  UNCW,  he  scored  1,513  points 
and  was  drafted  by  the  NBA's  New 
York  Knicks  in  his  junior  year  and 
by  the  St.  Louis  Hawks  after  his 
senior  season.  He  ranks  second 
on  UNCW's  all-time  scoring  list 
behind  Brian  Rowsom.  Neary  is 
center  director  of  the  Tulsa 
(Okla.)  YWCA  and  assists  Jerry 
Finbinner  and  the  Oral  Roberts 
women's  basketball  team. 

Sandlin  was  a  versatile  pitcher 
and  outfielder  for  the  Seahawks 
from  1970-73  and  was  one  of  the 
NAIA  District  29's  most  talented 
players.  He  was  named  first- team 


All-District  29  all  four  years  and 
led  the  Seahawks  to  a  combined 
114-38  record  in  four  seasons.  He 
led  the  team  in  batting  and  hits 
for  three  years  and  paced  the  club 
in  RBI's  all  four  seasons.  As  a 
pitcher  he  ranks  fifth  in  career 
victories  and  second  in  career 
strikeouts  and  put  together  a  re- 
markable season  in  1970.  He 
carved  out  a  6-0  record  that  sea- 
son and  did  not  allow  an  earned 
run  in  49  innings,  leading  the 
nation  in  that  category.  He  is  now 
vice  president  of  financial  ser- 
vices with  Wachovia  Corp.

Award,  followed  closely  by  Greg 
Gibson. 


The  seven  tropical  storms  and 
hurricanes  that  have  blown 
through  Southeastern  North 
Carolina  since  1996  provided 
much  fodderforUNCW  research- 
ers in  a  variety  of  specialties. 

In  the  Coastal  Ocean  Monitor- 
ing project  which  began  before 
Hurricane  Floyd,  LarryCahoon, 
professor  of  biological  sciences, 
developed  a  comprehensive  set 
of  data  about  what  did  and  did 
not  happen  in  the  coastal  ocean 
waters.  This  complements  a 
longer-term  program  of  moni- 
toring the  Lower  Cape  Fear 
River  and  its  estuaries  under 
direction  of  research  scientist 
Mike  Mallin. 

As  a  result  of  the  data  collection 
and  comparison,  Cahoon  said, 
"We  can  confidently  say  that  Hur- 
ricane Floyd  had  no  long-lasting 
impact  on  water  quality  as  it  af- 
fects human  users.  The  essential 
message  for  tourists  and  other 
visitors  to  our  area  is  that  our 
region's  ocean  water  quality  con- 
ditions are  fine,  they  have  been 
fine  for  quite  a  while  now,  and  we 
have  solid  scientific  reasons  for 
saying  so." 

In  the  Cameron  School  of  Busi- 
ness, Robert  Burrus  and  Chris 
Dumas,  assistant  professors  of 
economics,  and  Ed  Graham,  as- 
sistant professor  of  finance,  ex- 
amined cost-effective  strategies 
for  dealing  with  property  dam- 


ages created  by  hurricanes. 

Graham  and  Woody  Hall,  profes- 
sor of  economics  and  director  of 
the  UNCW  Center  for  Business 
and  Economics  Services,  investi- 
gated the  effects  that  increased 
tropica]  storm  activity  have  on 
real  estate  values  in  the  Wilming- 
ton area. 

Hall,  with  Claude  Farrell,  profes- 
sor of  economics  and  finance, 
looked  at  the  effects  on  economic 
growth  of  perceptions  that  South- 
eastern N.C.  has  again  become 
"hurricane  alley." 

Students  in  UNCW's  Gerontol- 
ogy Program  headed  by  Eleanor 
Covan  collaborated  with  Project 
ROAR  (Raising  Older  Adults 
Rights)  to  see  how  older  adults 
dealt  with  emergency  prepared- 
ness measures. 

In  February,  UNCWhosted  a  hur- 
ricane preparedness  conference 
that  brought  statewide  attention 
to  issues  involving  preparation 
and  planning  for  hurricanes  and 
strategies  to  minimize  loss.  One 
idea  that  gained  momentum 
from  the  conference  was  to  post 
hurricane  warnings  and  watches 
for  inland  areas  as  well  as  along 
the  coast.  Former  National  Hur- 
ricane Center  director  Jerry 
Jarrell,  keynote  speaker  at  the 
conference,  thinks  the  weather 
service  should  issue  advisories 
about  threats  of  deadly  inland 
flooding  or  powerful  winds. 


Student-athletes  rank  second  in  system 


UNC  Wilmington  again  ranks 
among  the  UNC  system's  best 
at  producing  quality  student- 
athletes. 

In  the  annual  graduation  rates 
report  released  by  the  UNC  Board 
of  Governors,  UNCW  student- 
athletes  posted  a  graduation  rate 
of  71.4  percent  for  freshmen  en- 
tering school  in  1994.  That  put 


the  Seahawks  a  close  second  be- 
hind UNC  Chapel  Hill,  which  re- 
corded a  71.8  graduation  rate. 

In  addition,  the  average  grade 
point  average  for  the  program's 
318  student-athletes  last  fall  was 
2.94,  and  45  percent  (146  of  318) 
compiled  a  GPA  of  3.0  or  better. 
Fifteen  student-athletes  made  a 
perfect  4.0  in  the  fall  semester.

New  era  in  marine  science  research 
launched  with  opening  of  center 


By  Audrey  Whaley  '00 


Past  the  reflection  pool  and  the  intricate  entrance,  beyond  the  auditorium 
and  between  the  meeting  rooms,  unc  wilmington's  center  for  marine 
Science  houses  the  newest  and  most  technologically  advanced  research 
labs  and  facilities  along  the  eastern  seaboard. 


The  building,  funded  with  a  $17.5  million 
appropriation  from  the  General  Assembly  in 
1995,  replaces  the  Wrightsville  Beach  com- 
plex which  was  made  up  of  approximately  20 
leaky  buildings/trailers  that  served  the  ma- 
rine science  program  since  1971. 

"This  is  a  North  Carolina  research  facility," 
Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze  at  the  opening 
in  March.  "It  has  space  and  amenities  for

and  environmental  physiology,  marine  bio- 
technology, aquaculture,  chemistry  and 
marine  geology. 

The  75,000-square-foot  building  includes 
52  research  labs,  five  classrooms,  a  teaching 
auditorium,  900-foot  pier  and  17  offices  and 
labs  for  collaborative  programs  such  as  N.C. 
Sea  Grant,  the  N.C.  National  Estuarine  Re- 
search Reserve  Program  and  the  National 

Undersea  Research 

Center. 


scientists,  students,  public  agencies  and  in- 
dustries statewide  to  work  cooperatively  in 
solving  regional  and  national  problems  fac- 
ing coastal  environments." 

"This  is  what  the  new  facility  is  all  about  - 
the  home  to  many  generations  of  marine 
scientists,  inspiring  cutting  edge  marine  re- 
search and  education  far  into  the  future," 
said  retired  Admiral  lames  D.  Watkins,  key- 
note speaker  at  the  opening  and  president 
of  the  Consortium  for  Oceanographic  Re- 
search and  Education. 

"With  pristine  estuaries  and  the  Atlantic 
Ocean  as  natural  laboratories,  UNC  Wilm- 
ington students  and  scientists  have  the 
tools  necessary  to  build  upon  a  tradition  of 
excellence  in  marine  scientific  inquiry." 

The  facility  is  located  seven  miles  southeast 
of  the  main  UNCW  campus  and  five  miles 
south  of  Wrightsville  Beach,  along  the  At- 
lantic Intracoastal  Waterway  at  Myrtle 
Grove  Sound.  Close  at  hand  are  the  ocean, 
sounds,  creeks,  rivers,  marshes  and  estuar- 
ies which  give  faculty  and  students  the  op- 
portunity to  study  oceanography,  coastal 
and  wetland  ecology,  marine  biomedical 


One  unique  feature  of 
the  center  is  the  salt- 
water and  freshwater 
storage  tanks  which 
eliminate  the  need  to 
haul  water  from  the 
sea  in  buckets  as  stu- 
dents and  researchers 
did  at  the  old  lab.  Now 
scientists  have  it  pumped  from  the  Intra- 
coastal Waterway  into  a  tap  down  the  hall 
from  their  labs. 

The  center  is  attracting  new  faculty  mem- 
bers who  will  strengthen  and  broaden  what 
is  already  a  top  nationally  ranked  marine 
biology  program. 

"Our  center  and  research  will  lead  the  pack 
in  integrating  cross-disciplines  and  training 
graduates  and  under- 
graduates for  the  next 
generation  of  interdis- 
ciplinary research," 
said  Daniel  G.  Baden, 
the  center's  director. 
"That's  where  this  cen 
ter  will  make  its  mark, 
because  we  have  all 
the  people  to  do  it." 

The  center's  faculty 
serve  on  regional,  na- 
tional and  interna- 
tional research  policy 
advisory  groups  and 
thereby  contribute  to 
the  development  of 


marine  research  agendas  around  the 
United  States  and  world.  Interactions  with 
labs  in  Scandinavia,  Japan,  Australia,  Eu- 
rope, the  Caribbean  and  all  regions  of 
coastal  United  States  augment  extensive 
programs  addressing  North  Carolina 
coastal  issues. 

The  objective  of  the  center  is  to  foster  a 
multidisciplinary  approach  to  marine  sci- 
ence research  and  education  and  to  pro- 
mote regional,  national  and  international 
research  programs  to  address  issues  of  lo- 
cal, state  and  national  concern.  The  center 
is  accomplishing  these  objectives  with  pro- 
grams that  involve  faculty  research,  gradu- 
ate and  undergraduate  research, 
cooperative  research  with  other  universities 
and  community  colleges,  partnerships  with 
area  businesses  and  educational  activities 
for  middle  and  high  school  children. 

MarineQuest  targets  local,  national  and  in- 
ternational children  ages  seven  to  15.  The 
20-year-old  program  "offers  an  interdisci- 
plinary approach  to  education,  by  not  only 
concentrating  on  the  study  of  science,  but 
also  other  areas  of  study  such  as  math, 
reading,  writing  and  history,"  said  Windi 
Baughman,  MarineQuest  assistant  director.

coastal  environment,  which  permits  them 
to  absorb  and  retain  more  information  and 
strengthens  their  educational  experience 
during  our  programs." 
With  new  spacious  labs  and  access  to  im- 
portant environmental  areas,  the  center 
will  enhance  children's  experiences  in 
other  programs  including  the  week-long 
Summer  Science  by  the  Sea  program  for 
children  ages  7-11;  Coast  Trek,  a  residential 
marine  and  environmental  studies  pro- 
gram for  academically  gifted  and  highly 
motivated  students  ages  11-13;  OceanLab, 
an  intense,  residential  marine  and  environ- 
mental education  program  for  college- 
bound  students  ages  14-15;  and  a  six-day 
marine  biology  camp  in  the  Florida  Keys 
for  teens  ages  14-17. 

Last  year  the  UNCW  Center  for  Marine  Sci- 
ence received  $4.7  million  in  grant  funding 
for  research.  Scientists  were  awarded  a 
$150,000  federal  grant  in  1997  and  $250,000 
grant  in  1998  for  the  mariculture  program, 
which  addresses  the  science  and  technol- 
ogy of  raising  marine  species  for  commer- 
cial purposes  and  for  enhancing  wild 
stocks  of  fish  depleted  by  overfishing  and 
habitat  destruction. 

In  October  1999,  the  center  received  a 
$750,000  grant  from  NOAA's  Oceanic  and  At- 
mospheric Research  Office  to  establish  a 
monitoring  program  on  the  physical,  chemi- 
cal and  biological  characteristics  of  the  coastal 


As  part  of  its  mission,  UNCW's  Center  for  Marine  Science  takes  a  cooperative  stance  to  education 
and  research.  In  addition  to  serving  university  students  and  faculty,  the  facility  has  research  space 
for  a  variety  of  local,  state  and  national  programs,  including  programs  for  children  of  all  ages. 


ocean  adjacent  to  southeastern  North  Carolina. 
The  most  recent  and  unique  grant  the  Bio- 
logical Sciences  Department  received  was 
for  a  project  called  "Juvenile  blue  crab  use 
of  low  salinity  areas."  The  initial  amount 
awarded  was  $246,415  for  the  first  year  of 
research,  and  the  grant  will  run  for  an  addi- 
tional three  years,  with  $200,000  awarded 
each  year.  The  project  is  different  from  oth- 
ers in  that  it  involves  seven  faculty  mem- 
bers and  eight  to  10  undergraduate 
students  per  year  who  receive  a  paid  in- 
ternship to  do  research.  They  will  study 
how  juvenile  blue  crabs  use  low  salinity  ar- 
eas in  estuaries  as  an  alternative  to 
seagrass  habitats  to  avoid  predators.  They 
will  also  look  at  the  growth  patterns  of  ju- 
venile blue  crabs  and  the  energy  they  ex- 
pend to  live.

mediate  hands-on  research  opportunities," 
said  Abbey  Warren,  undergraduate  re- 
searcher. "The  equipment  is  more  ad- 
vanced and  the  labs  are  more  spacious." 

UNCW  has  a  20-year  track  record  of  produc- 
ing some  of  the  best  undergraduate  marine 
biologists  in  the  country,  and  the  new  center 
will  provide  an  even  higher  level  of  educa- 
tion to  the  students  of  UNCW. 

This  summer,  UNCW's  Center  for  Marine 
Science  will  begin  a  new  and  unique  inter- 
disciplinary master's  level  program  in  ma- 
rine sciences  with  a  concentration  in 
oceans  and  human  health.  The  program 
will  be  offered  in  partnership  with  the  Ber- 
muda Biological  Station  for  Research 
(BBSR)  with  support  from  the  Glaxo 
Wellcome  Foundation.  The  UNCW-BBSR 
collaborative  program  is  designed  to  meet 
a  growing  need  for  interdisciplinary  profes- 
sionals trained  to  address  a  range  of  threats 
and  opportunities  for  public  health  and  en- 
vironmental health  associated  with  the  ma- 
rine environment. 

The  UNCW  Center  for  Marine  Science  is 
now  fully  operational  and  will  provide  an 
excellent  site  for  students  and  faculty  to  be 
involved  with  the  newest  technologies 
available  for  marine  environment  research. 

The  state  put  $17.5  million  into  this  marine 
science  center.  UNCW  will  certainly  repay 
that  investment  many  times  over,  not  only 
in  dollars,  but  also  in  a  better  quality  of  life 
for  the  people  of  North  Carolina.

The  C\*>? 


3y  Natalie  J.  Jarman  '00 


When  members  of  the  class  of 
2000  were  freshmen  back  in  1996, 
they  were  thought  by  many  to  be 
extreme,  self-absorbed  and  aloof 
with  their  brightly  colored  tattoos 
and  multiple  body  piercings. 

Peter  Sacks,  author  of  Generation  X  Goes  to 
College,  even  went  so  far  as  to  say  that  Gen- 
eration Xers  "just  want  to  be  entertained." 
When  they  do  not  know  something,  "they 
seem  to  be  proud  of  their  ignorance.  Gen- 
eration X  is  putting  its  own  spin  on  the  old 
idea  that  ignorance  is  bliss:  It's  afso  very 
cool,"  he  said. 

How  does  this  apply  to  the  members  of 
UNCW's  class  of  2000?  Do  they  match  the 
stereotype? 

While  styles  and  fashion  have  changed  over 
the  years,  students  at  UNCW  still  want  the 
same  things.  They  want  to  be  successful 
and  happy,  and  they  realize  that  hard  work 
comes  along  with  that.  Overall  SAT  scores 
and  grades  are  rising  along  with  UNCW  ad- 
missions standards,  so  these  students  must 
be  doing  something  right. 

Four  years  ago,  Cindy  Chapman,  the  1996 
freshman  class  vice  president,  believed, 
"This  class  is  extremely  competitive  because 
it  is  tougher  to  get  into  college.  We  are  up 
against  more  people."  She  also  felt  that 
"society's  problems  are  the  driving  force  to 
work  harder  to  obtain  my  goals."  She  still 
feels  the  same  today. 


Chapman  is  now  at  the  University  of  Ala- 
bama in  Tuscaloosa  where  she  is  majoring  in 
aerospace  engineering  and  is  in  the  Air  Force 
ROTC.  She  will  earn  her  pilot's  license  upon 
graduating  from  college  in  May  2001. 

Chapman  left  UNCW  to  join  an  ROTC  pro- 
gram; however,  she  said,  "I  loved  my  stay  at 
UNCW.  The  school  offers  really  great  pro- 
grams, and  it  killed  me  to  leave." 

Chapman  is  still  involved  in  leadership  pro- 
grams. She  was  the  wing  commander  of 
ROTC  detachment,  which  is  the  top  cadet 
position,  and  she  was  also  a  flight-training 
officer.  "I  would  like  my  generation  to  be 
more  appreciative  of  their  country,  not  take 
for  granted  the  freedom  that  they  have,  and 
to  realize  what  has  been  given  up  for  them," 
Chapman  said. 

UNCW  student's  community  service  hours 
have  also  gone  up  over  the  past  four  years. 
From  1996  to  1999  they  jumped  from  6,500 
hours  with  1 ,200  volunteers  to  1 8,000  hours 
with  2,600  volunteers. 

"This  school  provides  you  with  opportuni- 
ties to  enrich  yourself  if  you  seek  it  out," 
said  Anthony  Teasdale,  a  graduating  psy- 
chology major  and  minority  student  from 
New  York.  Anthony  was  the  1998-99  home- 
coming king  and  runs  various  programs  in 
the  Leadership  Center  where  he  works. 

Leadership  is  another  area  of  UNCW  that 
has  soared  to  new  heights  over  the  past  four 
years.  In  1996,  there  were  approximately 
1,500  students  involved  in  leadership  activi- 
ties. This  year  over  3,800  students  are  in- 


volved, and  leadership  programs  have 
jumped  from  100  in  1996  to  160  offered 
now. 

"This  class  has  distinguished  itself  and  has 
set  a  standard  for  every  class  with  tradition 
and  being  involved  on  campus.  Through 
the  gift  of  the  clock  tower,  they  have  shown 
their  vision  and  involvement.  The  number 
of  leaders  in  this  class  is  larger  than  any 
other  class  I  have  seen  since  I've  been 
here,"  said  Terry  Curran,  dean  of  students. 

Senior  class  president  Shane  Fernando 
headed  up  this  year's  senior  gift.  The  class 
raised  more  money  than  any  other  class  in 
the  history  of  the  UNC  system  (see  related 
story). 

"I  am  very  proud  of  my  class.  With  all  of  its 
accomplishments  over  the  years,  our  class 
has  come  together  to  unite  other  students 
and  the  community  for  a  common  purpose," 
stated  Fernando.  He  plans  to  teach  English 
in  China  for  a  year  after  graduation  and  then 
attend  graduate  school  at  George  Washing- 
ton University  to  study  international  security 
and  southeastern  Asian  studies. 

A  recent  survey  of  the  senior  class  showed 
that  the  vast  majority  are  happy  with  the 
university  itself.  They  felt  UNCW  set  high 
expectations  and  offered  excellent  overall 
instruction  and  opportunities  for  personal 
growth. 

While  only  35  percent  of  the  freshmen  who 
started  out  in  1996  are  graduating  within

As  president  of  the  UNCW  Class  of  2000,  Shane  Fernando  led  a  successful  fund-raising  campaign  to 
erect  the  Millennium  Clock  Tower  on  the  campus  commons  in  front  of  Randall  Library. 

Senior  Class  leaves  clock  tower  as  monument 


By  Marybeth  K.  Bianchi 

The  Millennium  Clock  Tower  will  stand  in 
the  Campus  Commons  as  a  testament  to 
the  dedicated,  hardworking  and  optimistic 
UNCW  Class  of  2000. 

The  project,  the  brainchild  of  senior  class 
president  Shane  Fernando,  is  the  largest 
gift  to  UNCW  and  in  the  UNC  system  given 
by  an  outgoing  class.  Shane  was  supported 
by  a  committee  of  10  enthusiastic  seniors. 
After  much  research,  the  students  found 
that  Verdin  Company  of  Cincinnati,  Ohio, 
was  the  only  one  which  put  together  the 
entire  package  they  sought. 
"Through  bargaining,  we  got  an  affordable 
plan  for  a  quality,  state-of-the-art  clock," 
Fernando  said.  "We  feel  very  lucky  to  have 
something  from  that  company  here."  Their 
clocks  also  grace  Notre  Dame  University, 
the  Smithsonian  Institution  and  the  World 
Trade  Center. 

The  Millennium  Clock  Tower  rises  50  feet 
from  a  terraced  plaza  of  bricks  that  are  in- 
scribed with  donors'  names.  Of  the  total 
cost  -  $150,000  -  the  senior  class  raised  ap- 
proximately $90,000.  They  received  a 
$15,000  grant  from  the  Student  Govern- 
ment Association,  which  had  earlier 
loaned  them  $35,000  to  order  the  tower 
before  fund-raising  was  completed.  The 
university  contributed  the  balance. 

"That  is  not  really  a  lot  of  money,  espe- 
cially for  something  that's  going  to  become 
one  of  the  symbols,  centerpieces  of  the 
campus,"  Fernando  said. 


The  fund-raising  effort  began  last  year 
with  the  Junior  Class  cruise.  Fund-raising 
efforts  escalated  in  the  fall  and  culminated 
successfully  in  late  March. 

"This  is  the  first  time  a  senior  class  gift 
project  has  reached  out  into  the  commu- 
nity, and  the  response  has  been  tremen- 
dous," Fernando  said. 

He  estimates  that  more  than  half  of  those 
who  contributed  are  first-time  donors  to 
the  university. 

"It's  so  incredible  to  see  how  special  they 
feel,"  Fernando  observed.  While  the  largest 
gift  was  $3,000,  most  were  "small  gifts  by 
regular  people,"  he  commented. 

Faculty,  staff,  alumni,  students,  parents, 
businesses  and  individuals  also  came  out 
to  support  the  cause.  There  were  about  400 
contributors  in  all. 

The  seniors  thanked  their  donors  with  a 
gala  and  dedication  ceremony  Friday  night 
before  commencement,  and  on  the  day  of 
their  commencement,  May  13,  2000,  the 
clock  chimed  for  the  first  time  at  10  a.m. 
The  Westminster  chimes  will  continue  to 
toll  each  hour  and  can  be  heard  almost  a 
mile  around  campus. 

"That's  what  makes  this  project  so  excit- 
ing to  the  graduates,"  Fernando  noted. 
"It's  the  beginning  of  a  new  era  for  our  stu- 
dents. We  hope  it  means  as  much  to  the 
university  as  it  does  to  us." 


four  years,  approximately  60  percent  of 
them  are  still  in  school. 

As  a  recent  trend,  students  are  taking  longer 
to  Finish  their  undergraduate  degrees  than 
in  years  past  because  they  are  not  under 
any  real  pressure  to  finish  within  the  tradi- 
tional four-year  time  frame.  They  find  it 
more  feasible  to  have  a  four-and-a-half-  to 
five-year  stay  here.  It  gives  them  the  oppor- 
tunity to  explore  different  fields  and  find 
out  what  they  are  really  interested  in. 

Yet,  there  is  still  a  small  percentage  who  do 
not  graduate  and  leave  the  university.  Most 
leave  for  financial  reasons.  Many  work  25  to 
40  hours  a  week  and  find  it  too  stressful  to 
work  and  go  to  class.  Some  drop  out  for 
personal  reasons,  but  very  few  transfer  or 
leave  for  academic  reasons. 

Brian  Hemphill,  associate  dean  of  students, 
said,  "I  have  seen  very  few  students  leave 
because  of  their  dislike  for  the  community. 
Most  students  who  withdraw  have  aspira- 
tions of  returning  to  UNCW." 

Jeremy  Page,  an  honors  student,  majoring 
in  political  science  with  a  minor  in  Spanish, 
said,  "I  will  always  reflect  back  on  my  col- 
lege career  as  a  turning  point  in  my  life.  I 
never  could  have  predicted  the  changes  to 
come  in  just  four  short  years.  For  one,  I  ex- 
pected to  leave  the  university  with  just  a  de- 
gree. Instead  I  will  set  out  with  something 
much  more  valuable  -  an  education.  The 
greatest  opportunity  one  can  seize  when 
coming  to  college  is  to  learn  and  to  want  to 
keep  learning.  My  professors  have  instilled 
this  value  in  me,  and  I  can  always  look  back 
with  pride  on  where  I  went  to  school."  Page 
plans  to  study  abroad  after  graduation. 

As  the  class  of  2000  enters  the  working 
world,  the  graduates  are  full  of  hope.  They 
are  level-headed  and  goal-oriented. 

This  class  has  turned  out  as  many  others 
before  them.  They,  too,  have  goals  and 
dreams.  Perhaps  a  small  percentage  of 
them  live  up  to  the  ugly  stereotypes,  but  as 
a  majority,  they  are  uninterested  in  the  ste- 
reotypes. They  are  too  busy  trying  to  suc- 
ceed and  achieve  their  goals. 

"The  exceptional  thing  about  our  genera- 
tion is  it  has  grown  seemingly  without  con- 
straint," Page  observed.  "Others  have  had 
wars  and  disease  and  financial  crisis.  We 
have  largely  avoided  any  such  impediments 
and  have  been  allowed  to  mature  to  limit- 
less heights. 

"The  challenge  for  us  is  not  to  take  this 
good  fortune  for  granted  and  realize  this 
world  will  one  day  be  in  our  hands.  This  is 
no  time  to  relax.  It  is  up  to  us  to  nurture  and 
protect  this  era  of  opportunity."

what  legacy ' 
will  we 
leave? 

UNCW's  top  facility 
need  is  the  Watson 
School  oj  Education  and 
Regional  Educational 
Resource  Center. 

By  Marybeth  K.  Bianchi 


One  of  North  Carolina's  largest  and  fastest-growing  Teaching  Fellows  Programs  is 
headquartered  in  a  renovated  broom  closet  in  King  Hall.  The  dean  of  the  Watson  School  of 
Education  stores  files  under  his  desk  because  there's  no  room  for  additional  file  cabinets. 

The  Professional  Development  System  that  works  with  nearly  1,000  public  school  teachers  to 
raise  standards  in  10  surrounding  counties  operates  from  two  crowded  offices  in  Randall  Library, 
with  no  space  available  that's  large  enough  to  meet  with  the  educators  it  serves. 

Five  classrooms  and  one  auditorium  serve  900  education  students. 


These  are  just  a  few  examples  of  the 
conditions  UNCW's  Watson  School  of 
Education  -  which  is  consistently 
ranked  among  the  best  nationally - 
must  work  around  as  it  turns  out 
teachers  to  meet  the  critical  shortage 
facing  the  state  and  nation. 

Over  the  past  seven  years,  the  Watson 
School  of  Education  has  seen  a  43  per- 
cent increase  in  undergraduate  enroll- 
ment, a  54  percent  increase  in  graduate 
enrollment  and  a  520  percent  increase 
in  students  seeking  certification.  How- 
ever, current  capacity  allows  for  just 
315  new  teachers  each  year  -  still  the 
third  largest  number  in  the  state.  Public 
schools  in  southeastern  North  Carolina 
will  need  2,500  in  10  years. 

Andrew  Hayes,  interim  dean  for  the 
Watson  School  of  Education,  pointed 
out  this  demand  for  more  teachers  and 


education  programs  has  exceeded  the 
available  space  at  UNCW.  Current 
space  limitations  impact  the  number 
of  students  who  can  enroll  and  the 
quality  of  faculty  that  can  be  recruited. 
"If  we  aren't  able  to  continue  to  grow 
and  meet  the  need  for  quality  public 
school  teachers,  we  will  not  be  serving 
the  people  of  the  region.  In  the  long 
run,  this  will  have  an  impact  on  busi- 
ness and  industry  development  in  the 
region  because  one  of  the  things  they 
look  for  when  relocating  is  quality 
school  systems  and  educated  populace 
from  which  to  draw  employees,"  Hayes 
noted. 

"We  feel  it's  part  of  the  mission  of  the 
university  to  serve  our  area,  to  work 
with  our  public  schools  and,  in  the 
most  basic  part  of  that,  produce  the 
teachers  who  need  to  go  into  those 


Spring/Summer  2000 


classrooms.  We're  not  meeting  a  frac- 
tion of  that  need,  and  we  can't,"  Chan- 
cellor James  Leutze  said  on  a  UNC-TV 
show  focusing  on  building  needs  at  the 
state's  public  universities.  "I  could 
show  you  point  after  point  about 
where  our  faculty  and  our  ability  to 
serve  our  region  and  to  serve  our  stu- 
dents is  constrained  by  the  fact  that  we 
don't  have  space." 

A  statewide  facilities  study  by  consult- 
ant Eva  Klein  identified  a  new  school 
of  education  and  regional  educational 
resource  center  as  UNCW's  most  criti- 
cal need.  In  1998,  the  state  did  allocate 
$1.7  million  to  plan  the  building  - 
which  was  done  with  just  a  portion  of 
the  funds  as  more  than  $1  million  was 
returned  to  the  state  to  assist  in  hurri- 
cane relief  programs. 

Leutze  believes  there  is  widespread 


UNCW  Magazine 


support  for  the  construction  of  a  new 
school  of  education  and  educational 
resource  facility.  "It's  hard  to  argue 
against  the  fact  that  here's  a  clear  con- 
nection between  the  university  and  K 
through  12.  People  certainly  know  that 
what  we're  training  our  students  to  do 
is  go  out  and  teach  in  their  communi- 
ties, to  go  into  their  schools  in  their  lo- 
cal communities.  A  school  of  education 
is  sort  of  mom  and  apple  pie. 

"This  is  training  they  receive  here  at 
UNCW,  and  then  will  go  back  and  be 
teachers  themselves  and  train  the  kids 
that  will  follow  through  that  sort  of  cir- 
cular pattern.  I  haven't  heard  anybody 
argue  against  this  one.  I  haven't  heard 
anybody  say,  'Oh,  you  don't  need  a 
school  of  education, '"Leutze  said. 

Discussing  cramped  faculty  office 
space,  Leutze  noted,  "These  are  pro- 
fessionals trying  to  do  their  jobs  under 
extremely  difficult  conditions  and 
what  they  do,  and  the  quality  of  their 
work  is  important  to  everyone  in  the 
state  of  North  Carolina  because  they 
are  trying  to  train  the  teachers  to  go 
out  and  teach  the  children  of  the 
people  of  North  Carolina." 

This  spring,  after  the  Joint  Select  Com- 
mittee on  Higher  Education  Facilities 
Needs  toured  the  28-year-old  King 
Hall  and  visited  other  campuses, 
members  proposed  a  $3.1  billion  bond 
issue  to  fund  this  and  other  public  uni- 
versity building  needs  across  the  state. 
Last  year  legislators  turned  down  a 
similar  bond  issue,  but  in  May  over- 
whelmingly approved  the  current  pro- 
posal which  will  be  put  before  state 
voters  on  Nov.  7. 

"Realize,  if  the  funds  are  granted  for  the 
school  of  education  this  session,  it's 
still  going  to  be  three  years  before  that 
building  actually  opens.  We're  already 
looking  at  a  shortfall  over  a  three-year 
period  right  now,"  Leutze  said. 

"The  longer  it's  delayed,  the  further 
into  the  21st  century  you  get.  So  it 
gets  harder  to  bring  in  good  staff, 
teachers  and  administrators  if  they 
realize  that  the  facilities  are  inad- 
equate, and  they're  not  going  to  get 
ery  soon." 


The  proposed  facility  for  the  Watson  School  of  Education  and  Regional  Education  Resource  Center  will 
provide  needed  space  for  classrooms,  labs,  faculty  offices,  programs  and  conferences.  At  80,500 
square  feet,  the  building  will  be  located  at  the  back  of  campus,  on  Reynolds  Drive  near  Dobo  Hall. 
The  cost  of  construction  is  estimated  at  $18.7  million,  and  if  funded  this  year,  will  be  completed  by 
2003.  Designed  by  Jenkins  •  Peer  Architects  of  Charlotte,  the  three-story  building  will  be  similar  in 
style  to  others  on  campus,  with  a  privately-funded  garden  located  off  the  central  atrium.  It  will 
feature  the  North  Carolina  Teachers  Legacy  Hall. 

Funds  would  give  UNCW  room  to  grow 


On  Nov.  7,  the  higher  education  facili- 
ties bond  referendum  will  be  placed 
before  North  Carolina  voters. 

This  $3.1  billion  package  will  be  di- 
vided with  $2.5  billion  for  university 
construction  and  renovation  and  $600 
million  for  community  colleges.

$108  million.  The  top  priority  is  the 
Watson  School  of  Education  and  Re- 
gional Educational  Resource  Center. 
However,  the  funding  will  also  allow 
the  university  to  construct  a  classroom 
building  for  the  academic  departments 
in  the  fine  arts,  a  second  general  class- 
room building  to  meet  its  space  needs 
as  student  enrollment  grows,  an  aca- 
demic support  facility  and  a  comput- 
ing center. 

In  addition,  money  would  be  available 
for  comprehensive  modernization  of 
King,  Hoggard,  Alderman,  Westside, 
Kenan,  James  and  Friday  halls,  as  well 
as  Kenan  Auditorium.  Remaining 
funds  would  be  spent  on  infrastructure 
expansion,  technology  and  other 
needs. 

State  treasurer  Harlan  Boyles  has  said 
he  does  not  think  the  bond  issue  debt 
will  result  in  future  tax  increases.

March  madness  hits  Wilmington 

Seahawks  make  first  trip 
to  NCAA  tournament 


By  Phillip  Brown 

When  the  final  buzzer  sounded 
in  Richmond,  the  improbable 
was  reality  -  the  Seahawks  were 
CAA  champions  headed  to  the 
NCAA  tournament. 

The  thrilling  57-47  victory  over  the  Univer- 
sity of  Richmond  was  the  third  victory  in  as 
many  days  for  the  Seahawks  in  the  Colonial 
Athletic  Association  tournament.  In  their 
first  two  conference  games,  UNCW  de- 
feated Virginia  Commonwealth  University 
and  top-seeded  George  Mason  University, 
setting  up  the  showdown  with  Richmond. 

The  CAA  championship  and  entry  into  the 
"Big  Dance"  ignited  a  frenzy  of  excitement 
in  the  Port  City. 

"There  was  a  great  sense  of  pride  through- 
out the  community  as  the  city  focused  on 
the  positives  of  UNCW's  basketball  victory," 
said  Wilmington  mayor  David  (ones,  a  long- 
time Seahawk  supporter.  "We  could  forget 
about  the  hurricanes  and  snow  and  enjoy 
the  university's  success.  We're  proud  of  the 
university  and  the  accomplishments  of  all 
its  students,  and  that  pride  will  continue." 

While  the  men's  basketball  team  would  fall 


to  its  NCAA  first-round  opponents,  the  Uni- 
versity of  Cincinnati,  64-47  at  the  Gaylord 
Entertainment  Center  in  Nashville,  the  ex- 
perience has  brought  a  new  level  of  energy 
and  notoriety  to  the  athletic  program  and 
the  university. 

"This  season's  success  has  put  us  on  the  na- 
tional map  as  an  institution,"  said  Peg  Brad- 
ley-Doppes,  UNCW's  athletics  director. 

Earning  a  berth  to  the  NCAA  tournament 
provides  instant  credibility  for  an  athletic 
program,  said  Bradley-Doppes.  "I've  said 
many  times  that  athletics  are  not  the  most 
important  part  of  the  university,  but  they 
are  the  most  visible." 

The  media  attention  generated  by  an  NCAA 
basketball  appearance  is  second  to  none.  If 
you  don't  believe  it,  just  ask  Joe  Browning, 
UNCW's  sports  information  director. 

"During  a  two-week  period  I  had  105  inter- 
view requests  nationwide,"  said  Browning, 
pointing  to  an  one-inch  thick  notebook 
containing  a  compilation  of  news  coverage. 
"Newspapers  from  Los  Angeles  to  South 
Dakota  to  Maine  wanted  to  interview  play- 
ers and  coaches." 

Dealing  with  the  increased  number  of  me- 
dia outlets  was  stressful,  but  worthwhile, 
said  Browning.  "It  opened  some  doors  for 
the  university,  and  it  was  nice  to  have 
Sports  Illustrated  call  me." 

The  players  and  coaches  were  overwhelmed 
and  humbled  by  the  accolades  from  the  uni- 
versity, the  city  and  New  Hanover  County  for 
the  CAA  championship  and  their  appear- 
ance in  the  NCAA  tournament. 

Marcus  Green,  a  senior  forward  from  Wilm- 
ington, said  the  CAA  victory  had  a  tremen- 
dous impact  on  the  city. 

"We  have  some  of  the  most  loyal  fans  who 
have  waited  so  long  for  this  win,"  said  Green. 

"The  reaction  of  the  fans  has  been  great," 
echoed  Barron  Thelmon,  a  junior  forward 
from  Chicago,  111.  "I  think  everybody  is  really 
proud  of  us.  I  know  it  was  a  great  feeling 
riding  in  the  Azalea  Festival  parade  and  get- 
ting a  standing  ovation  from  the  community."

Head  coach  Jerry  Wainwright  was  grand 
marshal  for  the  festival  parade  which  attracts 
more  than  100.000  people  to  Wilmington. 

An  unexpected  role  for  the  coach,  Wain- 
wright said  the  response  from  the  commu- 
nity and  festival  attendees  was  tremendous. 
"  (The  win)  touched  all  segments  of  commu- 
nity life.  It  was  just  a  great  feeling  to  know 
that  people  cared  about  what  our  basketball 
team  accomplished." 

The  extra  attention  that  the  media  be- 
stowed upon  the  Cinderella  Seahawks  also 
benefited  UNCW's  academic  programs  said 
UNCW  Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze. 

"The  CAA  championship  and  going  to 
Nashville  have  been  tremendous  for  the 
university,  not  only  for  the  athletics  pro- 
gram, but  for  calling  attention  to  the  quality 
of  our  academic  programs,"  he  said.  "While 
the  University  of  Cincinnati  had  better 
numbers  on  the  scoreboard,  the  country 
saw  the  true  meaning  of  student  athletes. 
I'll  match  the  academic  achievements  of 
our  players,  especially  graduation  rates, 
against  any  college  in  the  country." 

John  Cavanaugh,  provost  and  vice  chancel- 
lor for  academic  affairs,  agreed.  "We  have 
many  outstanding  scholar  athletes  and  a 
graduation  rate  second  to  Chapel  Hill  in  the 
UNC  system.  UNCW  is  truly  a  place  where 
high-ability  students  who  play  sports  can 
come  and  excel  at  both.  Marcus  Green  is 
such  a  student.  He  was  recently  inducted 
into  Beta  Gamma  Sigma,  the  Cameron 
School  of  Business  honor  society." 

An  added  bonus  for  being  in  the  NCAA 
tournament,  said  Cavanaugh,  was  "the  in- 
creased likelihood  of  people  discovering 
UNCW  on  the  World  Wide  Web  and  learn- 
ing more  about  what  we  have  to  offer." 

In  addition  to  raising  awareness  of  the  uni- 


UNCW  Seahawk  Brett  Blizzard  goes  up  for  a  shot  as  the  Cincinnati  Bearcats  bear  down  on  him.  Their 
opponents'  size  was  one  factor  which  limited  the  number  of  shots  the  Seahawks  could  make. 


versify,  the  CAA  victory  and  trip  to  the  NCAA 
tournament  spawned  more  interest  and  fi- 
nancial support  from  alumni,  said  Pat  Cor- 
coran Smith  72,  executive  director  of  the 


Blizzard  named  top  3 -point  shooter  in  nation 


Brett  Blizzard,  who  set  school  and  conference 
records  for  his  three-point  shooting  expertise 
during  the  1999-00  season,  received  the  Edward 
S.  Steitz  Award  as  the  best  three-point  shooter 
in  the  nation  by  the  Basketball  Hall  of  Fame  in 
Springfield,  Mass. 

The  award  is  named  after  the  late  Dr.  Edward  S. 
Steitz,  the  "father"  of  the  college  basketball 
three-point  shot.  It  is  presented  to  the  male 
and  female  players  with  the  highest  three-point 
shooting  percentage  with  no  less  than  an  aver- 
age of  3.0  three-pointers  made  per  game. 
Blizzard  paced  the  team  in  several  statistical 
categories  during  the  past  season. 

tin  very  excited  that  Brett  has  been 


presented  with  the  Edward  S.  Steitz  Award,"  said 
head  coach  Jerry  Wainwright.  "Without  question, 
he  had  an  incredible  freshman  year  and  certainly 
his  ability  to  shoot  the  basketball  helped  make 
our  team  competitive  at  the  highest  level  of  NCAA 
competition." 

Blizzard  averaged  15.6  points  in  starting  all  31 
games  for  the  Seahawks  and  was  the  team's 
leading  scorer  in  21  appearances.  He  was  named 
CAA  Player-of-the-Week  twice  during  the  regular 
season  and  collected  CAA  Rookie-of-the-Year, 
First-Team  All-Conference,  All-CAA  Tournament 
and  CAA  Tournament  MVP  honors.  The  rookie 
sensation  became  the  first  freshman  in  the  his- 
tory of  the  CAA  to  earn  first-team  ALl-Conference 
and  CAA  Tournament  MVP  recognition. 


UNCW  Alumni  Association. 

"I  believe  this  is  the  beginning  ripple  of  a 
renewed  interest  in  UNCW  and  alumni  ef- 
forts to  support  the  institution  in  a  variety 
of  ways  from  board  service  to  contributions 
of  time,  energy  and  money,"  said  Smith. 

"Alumni  believe  in  UNCW  and  are  eager  to 
help.  The  NCAA  appearance  has  brought  a  lot 
of  excitement  to  our  young  alumni  program." 

An  increase  in  interest  and  awareness  is  wel- 
come news  to  Wainwright,  who  has  seen  a 
boost  in  the  appeal  of  the  Seahawk  program. 

"The  week  after  we  won  the  (CAA)  tourna- 
ment, I  took  four  calls  from  four  different 
coaches  in  four  different  states  telling  me 
about  juniors  in  their  program,"  said 
Wainwright. 

"1  think  that  when  you  make  a  national  TV 
appearance  and  play  the  type  of  game  we 
played,  it's  a  positive  experience.  We've  really 
pushed  out-of-state  recruiting,  but  we'd  like 
to  have  more  awareness  in  our  own  state."

the  N.C.  Department  of  Motor  Vehicles  for 
$25  a  year  (in  addition  to  the  regular  motor 
vehicle  registration  fee).  Of  that  amount, 
$15  goes  directly  to  the  alumni  association's 
scholarship  program  which  awards  eleven 
$1 ,500  undergraduate  and  graduate  schol- 
arships each  year.

George  Chadwick  '69 
was  the  2000 
Distinguished  Alumnus. 


Gary  W.  Chadwick 
'69  and  the  family  of 
the  late  George 
Henry  Hutaff  were 
honored  at  the  an- 
nua] UNCW  Alumni 
Association  awards 
banquet. 

Exceptional  service 
to  the  community, 
leadership  in  the 
formative  years  of 
the  alumni  associa- 
tion, heroism  and 
leadership  by  ex- 
ample are  just  some 
of  the  reasons  Chad- 
wick received  the 
2000  Distinguished  Alumnus  Award. 

Chadwick  is  senior  vice  president  of  The 
Title  Company  of  North  Carolina  and  vice 
president  for  Old  Republic  National  Title 
Insurance  Company.  Even  as  a  student  at 
Wilmington  College,  Chadwick  demon- 
strated his  leadership  skills  by  serving  as 
student  body  president  in  1968-1969. 

His  involvement  and  service  to  the  commu- 
nity is  evident  by  his  serving  as  a  board 
member  for  the  Rotary  Club,  president  and 
board  member  of  the  Brigade  Boys  &  Girls 
Club,  president  and  board  member  of  the 
Seahawk  Club,  and  president  of  North 
Carolina  Land  Tide  Association.  Chadwick 
also  supports  the  YMCA,  Boy  Scouts,  Salva- 
tion Army,  Christian  Children's  Fund  and 
Yahweh  Center. 

The  late  George  Henry  Hutaff  was  honored 
as  the  Distinguished  Citizen  for  Service  to 
the  Community  and  University  for  his  ac- 
complishments as  a  Wilmington  business- 
man and  his  outstanding  support  and 
assistance  to  the  community. 

Hutaff  specialized  in  selling  sarsaparilla  and 
other  popular  drinks  to  local  businesses 
and  eventually  began  bottling  seltzer  water 
and  fruit  drinks.  He  made  an  important  de- 
cision to  sign  a  contract  for  a  Coca-Cola 
franchise  in  1902.  Thus,  Wilmington  Coca- 
Cola  Bottling  Works  was  incorporated  on 
July  10,  1909. 

While  managing  one  of  Wilmington's  most 
successful  businesses,  Hutaff  remained  ac- 
tive in  the  community.  He  was  a  member  of 
the  Germania  Club  and  the  Hanover  Sea- 


Tabitha  Hutaff

George  Hutaff  McEache 
accepted  the  Distin- 
guished Citizen  Award. 


side  Club.  He  was  an  active 
member  of  the  New  Hanover 
Fishing  Club,  and  he  set  the 
record  for  the  largest  channel 
bass  caught  during  the  sea- 
son in  1916.  During  World 
War  I,  he  was  chairman  of 
the  Soldier's  Relief  Commit- 
tee of  the  local  chapter  of  the 
Red  Cross  Society. 
Hutaff  was  not  just  a  member 
of  clubs,  but  was  also  an  ac- 
tive community  member.  He 
helped  organize  Sunday  reli- 
gious services  at  the  local 
prison.  He  donated  land  for  a 
park  for  the  African-Ameri- 
can community.  A  respected 
citizen,  he  always  gave  back 
to  the  community  in  which 
he  lived  through  kindness, 
sharing  and  guidance. 

"The  recipients  honored 
truly  modeled  and  inspired 
in  others  civic  involvement 
and  unselfish  giving,  one  of 
life's  greatest  lessons  to 
learn,"  Patricia  Corcoran  Smith  72,  execu- 
tive director  of  alumni  relations,  said.

dent Tim  Kornegay  '89  and  will  re- 
port on  AAGA's  events  and  activi-

She  is  to  be  commended  for  her 
long-term  commitment  to  AAGA. 
The  March  18  chapter  meeting 
planned  for  Raleigh  was  postponed 
pending  the  selection  of  an  alumni 
program  coordinator  and  March 
Madness  activities  that  prevented 
attendance  by  UNCW  support  staff. 
The  chapter  welcomes  Lamont 
Franklin  '97  as  interim  alumni  pro- 
gram coordinator  and  looks  forward 
to  their  close  working  relationship. 
Linda  MacRae  '95  was  given  tribute 
by  the  chapter  with  an  honorary 
lifetime  membership  to  AAGA  for 
her  $5,000  lead  gift  to  support  the 
Ralph  Parker  Scholarship.  Contribu- 
tions are  strongly  recommended  to 
support  this  worthy  effort.  To  learn 
more  about  AAGA,  contact

Cameron  School  of 
Business  Chapter 

After  just  one  year  since  restructur- 
ing, the  Cameron  School  of  Business 
Chapter  received  the  Alumni  Asso- 
ciations Soaring  Chapter  Award. 
Congratulations  to  chapter  repre- 
sentative Donis  Noe  '87  and  former 
representative  Richard  Edens  '94M 
as  well  as  the  board  of  directors  for 
their  dedicated  service. 
At  the  chapter's  homecoming  half- 
time  social,  over  30  alumni  and 
faculty  had  an  opportunity  to  chat 
about  the  game  and  the  growth  of 
the  Cameron  School  of  Business. 
Last  year  the  chapter  began  working 
to  endow  a  scholarship  in  honor  of 
Dr.  Norman  R.  Kaylor  and  is  now 
happy  to  report  the  scholarship  is 
nearing  completion.  Members  plan 
to  have  the  scholarship  endowed 
and  a  recipient  selected  for  fall  se- 
mester. The  chapter  could  not  have 
reached  its  goal  this  quickly  with- 
out the  generosity  of  Chris  Heagle 
'76.  If  you  would  like  to  support 
this  scholarship,  please  send  your 
donation  to  the  Cameron  School  of 
Business  Kaylor  Scholarship. 
This  spring  Dean  Howard  Rockness 
announced  his  resignation  and  re- 
turn to  teaching.  In  May  the  UNC 
Board  of  Governors  approved 
Lawrence  S.  Clark  as  the  new  dean, 
and  the  chapter  will  host  a  recep- 
tion to  welcome  him  to  campus. 
The  chapter's  annual  summer  picnic 
and  concert  at  Hugh  MacRae  Park

Cape  Fear  Chapter 

Following  last  year's  success,  the 
Second  Annual  Grand  Slam  Jam 
was  another  great  alumni  event. 
Over  130  alumni  and  friends  gath- 
ered to  enjoy  food,  friends  and  fun 
as  the  Seahawks  baseball  team 
took  on  Coastal  Carolina  University 
at  Brooks  Field. 

In  his  first  year  as  leader  of  the 
Cape  Fear  Chapter,  Neal  Leeper'95 
received  the  association's  Rookie 
of  the  Year  Award.  Neal  did  an  ex- 
cellent job  devoting  his  time  and 
energy  to  promoting  the  chapter's 
efforts  and  was  honored  for  his 
service.  Congratulations,  Neal. 
The  chapter  is  in  the  process  of 
confirming  plans  for  upcoming 
events  such  as  Beach  Blowout 
2000  and  its  annual  fund-raising 
golf  tournament.  Stay  tuned  and 
look  for  information  concerning 
these  events. 
This  summer  the  chap- 
ter elected  a  new 
leader.  After  a  success- 
ful campaign,  Leeper 
passed  on  the  reins  of 
leadership  to  Caroline 
Corriher  '97.  Corriher 
served  on  the  chapter's 
board  last  year  and  is 
poised  to  take  over  as 
chapter  leader.

Charlotte  Chapter 

The  Graduate  was  the  site  for  the 
April  17  meeting  of  the  Charlotte 
Alumni  Chapter.  Appropriate  for 
the  group,  all  UNCW  graduates,  the 
venue  inspired  exciting  plans  for 
the  chapter.  A  pool  party  event  is 
planned  for  area  alumni  and 
guests.  More  written  communica- 
tion will  be  sent  to  active  chapter 
members.  There  was  interest  in 
meeting  the  first  Tuesday  of  each 
month  for  a  "Happy  Hour"  gather- 
ing at  the  Dixie  Tavern  in  Char- 
lotte. The  first  one  was  successful 
and  fun  for  alumni. 
There  is  an  urgent  need  for  current

March  Madness  brought  alumni  to- 
gether in  Richmond  for  the  CAA

Triangle  Chapter 

Keeping  in  the  spirit  of  years 
past,  the  chapter  sponsored  in 
April  its  annual  Day  at  the  Ballpark 
with  the  Durham  Bulls.  Unlike  the 
previous  year's  event  which  took 
place  during  the  heat  of  the  sum- 
mer, this  year's  event  was  graced 
with  a  beautiful  spring-like  day 
during  which  over  100  alumni  en- 
joyed hamburgers,  chicken,  beer 
and  another  great  Bulls'  game. 
Under  the  leadership  of  Lloyd 
Hinnant  '88,  the  chapter  is  orga- 
nizing social  gatherings  for  alumni 
and  friends  at  various  "hot-spots" 
throughout  the  Raleigh-Durham 
area.  As  the  year  progresses,  look 
for  more  information  concerning 
these  alumni  drop-in  functions. 
As  the  chapter  seeks  to  continue 
an  open  line  of  communication 
with  all  alumni,  please  update  your 
information  with  UNCW  at

Watson  School  of 
Education  Chapter 

Staying  on  course  with  its  original 
goals,  the  chapter  continues  to 
provide  excel- 
lent support  to 
Watson  School 
of  Education 
students  and 
administration. 
With  the  flour- 
ishing interest 
of  education 
alumni,  an  11- 
member  council 
to  make  policy 
decisions  and 
plan  for  the 
chapter  contin- 
ued in  its  sec- 
ond year. 

In  recognition  of  his  service  to  the 
School  of  Education  as  interim 
dean,  colleagues  and  friends  hon- 
ored Andrew  Hayes  at  a  reception 
in  May.  Hayes  has  shown  contin- 
ued support  for  the  chapter's  ef- 
forts to  offer  programs  and  activi- 
ties and  is  committed  to  having 
alumni  serve  as  positive  role  mod- 
els for  education  students. 
At  the  Watson  School  of  Education 
spring  picnic,  the  chapter  awarded 
two  scholarships  of  $500  each  to 
two  students  majoring  in  educa- 
tion: Sinda  Lee  Nichols  and  Susan 
Yasmin  Khakee-Smith.  Sinda  is  an 
elementary  education  major,  and 
Susan  is  a  special  education  major. 
At  the  school's  graduation  cer- 
emony, the  chapter  presented  the 
Watson  School  of  Education  Distin- 
guished Alumna  Award  to  Kathy 
Suggs  Fleetwood  '93.  A  magna  cum 
laude  graduate,  she  received  her 
bachelor  of  arts  in  history  and  is 
teaching  history  at  Southwestern 
Randolph  High  School  in  Asheboro. 
Fleetwood  is  also  the  first  North 
Carolina  Teaching  Fellow  to  be 
honored. 

Due  to  the  success  of  the  1999- 
2000  alumni/student-mentoring 
program,  with  nine  alumni  volun- 
teers, the  chapter  has  now  ex- 


panded to  a  12-member  group.  Rep- 
resenting all  of  the  degrees  taught 
in  the  Watson  School  of  Education, 
this  group  is  listed  on  a  laminated 
bookmark  for  use  by  undergraduate 
students  wishing  to  consult  with  a 
teacher  in  the  workforce.  Students 
and  alumni  are  benefiting  from  this 
valuable  program. 


Janis  and  Fletcher  Norris  hosted  the  fall  Watson 
School  of  Education  Chapter  board  meeting. 


Education  alumni  interested  in  this 
program  or  other  activities  spon- 
sored by  the  chapter  should  con-

Crew  Club 

Curt  Browder '92  and  Matt 
Bartoldus  '97  organized  a  St. 
Patrick's  Day  weekend  event  for 
Crew  Club  alumni  in  Wilmington. 
The  group  rowed  for  fun  and  com- 
peted against  each  other.  Other 
opportunities  for  crew  alumni  ca- 
maraderie were  enjoyed. 
An  interest  survey  was  mailed  to 
all  crew  alumni  following  the  week- 
end. Interest  is  high  for  a  fall  re- 
union gathering.  Please  contact 
the  Alumni  Relations  office  if  you 
did  not  receive  the  survey  and  are 
interested  in  supporting  this  effort 
to  initiate  a  chapter.

No  Y2K  problems  for  association 


The  year  2000  has  been  especially  good  to 
UNCW  -  the  association's  30th  anniver- 
sary, UNCW's  first  basketball  CAA  cham- 
pionship and  our  first  trip  to  the  Big 
Dance,  the  NCAA  tournament  -  are  a  few 
highlights. 

I  am  fortunate  to  have  had  an  opportunity 
to  play  a  small  part  in  it  during  my  year  as 
chairman. 

Thank  you  to  Bob  King,  one  of  our  forefa- 
thers, for  hosting  a  memorable  anniver- 
sary gala,  and  the  volunteers  for  long 
hours  of  planning  and  preparation.  Those 
who  attended  could  not  say  enough  about 
this  grand  event.  It  was  truly  our  night  to 
shine. 

Along  came  Homecoming  2000!  The 
alumni  awards  banquet  gave  us  an  oppor- 
tunity to  honor  those  for  their  exemplar)' 
efforts  to  promote  and  enhance  UNCW 
and  the  association.  The  weekend  contin- 
ued with  a  "Welcome  Home  Brunch,"  a 
campus  tour,  "Catfish  Night"  pregame  so- 
cial with  recognition  given  to  Pi  Kappa  Phi 
and  Phi  Mu  alumni  and  the  basketball 
game  in  Trask  Coliseum  followed  by  the 
alumni  gathering  at  the  Wilmington  Hilton 


for  "dancing  the  night 
away"  to  the  Band  of  Oz. 

One  of  the  events  I  will 
remember  fondly  is 
graduation.  What  an  ex- 
hilarating moment  in  my 
life  to  stand  in  front  of 
graduates,  their  family         ~  oux    " 
and  friends  to  bring 

greetings  from  our  association.  To  quote  a 
line  from  my  speech,  "For  a  short  time  in 
your  life  you  have  been  a  student  at 
UNCW,  but  from  this  day  forward  no  mat- 
ter where  you  choose  to  work,  no  matter 
where  you  choose  to  live,  one  thing  shall 
remain  the  same,  you  are  from  this  day 
forward  an  alumnus  of  the  University  of 
North  Carolina  at  Wilmington  everyday 
for  the  rest  of  your  life."  This  statement 
also  holds  true  for  each  of  us  as  we  lead 
our  own  individual  busy  lives. 

Our  anniversary  theme,  "Love,  Loyalty 
and  Spirit"  truly  reflects  the  UNCW 
Alumni  Association's  mission  to  this  uni- 
versity, and  it  is  our  commitment  to  con- 
tinue through  the  future. 


Alumni  gifts  benefit  many 


As  we  draw  our  alumni  year  to  a  close  -  fis- 
cally speaking,  it  becomes  clear  to  me  how 
important  it  is  to  be  an  active  alumnus. 

The  benefits  are  evident  to  the  university 
and  to  us  as  donors.  Our  gifts  make  a  dif- 
ference to  our  alma  mater  as  we  designate 
them  to  our  school,  favorite  athletic  pro- 
gram, scholarship  or  pet  project.  The 
UNCW  Alumni  Association  and  Wise 
Alumni  House  have  benefited  greatly  by 
your  support. 

The  university  counts  on  an  increasing 
alumni  participation  rate  as  our  gradua- 
tion classes  grow  and  thrive  in  the  work- 
place. Each  gift,  no  matter  how  small, 
counts  for  us. 

Our  alumni  participation  rate  is  part  of 
the  formula  for  college  rankings  devel- 
oped by  U.  S.  News  and  World  Report.  We 
are  currently  among  the  top  10  public  re- 
gional undergraduate  universities  in  the 
South  and  23rd  among  both  public  and 
private  regional  universities  in  the  South.

UNCW  got  a  mention  on  the  nationally  televised  X-Files  series 
thanks  to  Arthur  W.  Pickering  '97.  On  a  show  that  aired  in  April, 
it  was  an  entomologist  at  UNCW  who  identified  the  mutant  tobacco 
beetle  that  turned  out  to  be  the  key  to  solving  the  case.  "Yet 
another  example  of  how  our  world  class  science  saves  the  day!" 
Provost  John  Cavanaugh  joked.  A  writers'  assistant  for  the  series, 
Art  thinks  this  mention  was  done  as  a  favor  to  him  "I  love  that 
place, "  he  said  of  his  alma  mater.  "I  talk  about  it  all  the  time. " 
He  and  the  other  writers  in  the  trailer  they  share  watched  UNCW 
play  in  the  NCAA.  He  said  one  version  of  the  script  had  a  UNC 
Greensboro  entomologist,  then  the  next  time  he  saw  it,  it  had  been 
revised  to  say  UNC  Wilmington.  He  was  pleased  that  this  could  help 
put  the  university  on  the  map  and  excited  about  the  buzz  it  had 
created  on  campus.  He  resides  in  Hollywood,  Calif.

Schaff  '87 


It's  hard  to  telljust  where  a  marine  science  degree  from  UNCW  could  take 
a  graduate.  For  Terrence  R.  Schaff  '87  it  was  on  to  NC  State  University 
for  a  master's  degree  in  oceanography.  As  part  of  the  program,  he 
studied  the  environmental  soundness  of  offshore  drilling,  specifically 
where  a  major  oil  company  proposed  sinking  wells  off  the  coast  of  the 
Outer  Banks.  Working  with  the  Rep.  Walter  B.  Jones  (now  deceased),  he 
became  interested  in  the  politics  of  environmental  concerns.  "I  was 
interested  in  oceanography  and  how  you  use  science  to  make  decisions, " 
he  said  during  a  recent  visit  to  Wilmington.  After  receiving  his  master's, 
Schaff  returned  to  the  Washington,  D.C.,  area  were  he  was  raised,  and 
went  to  work  on  Capitol  Hill  writing  ocean-related  legislation  for  the 
House  of  Representatives  oceanographry  subcommittee.  Now  he  works  for  the  Consortium  for 
Oceanographic  Research  and  Education  as  director  of  government  relations  and  assistant  to 
CORE'S  president,  retired  Secretary  of  Energy  Adin.  James  D.  Watkins.  CORE  is  an  association 
of  61  U.S.  oceanographic  research  institutions,  universities,  laboratories  and  aquaria,  of 
which  UNCW  is  a  member.  Schaff  is  possibly  Washington's  only  registered  lobbyist  who  is  also 
an  oceanographer,  working  with  the  U.S.  Congress  on  a  daily  basis  trying  to  raise  their 
awareness  ■if  the  importance  of  ocean  research.  He  discusses  initiatives,  drafts  legislation  and 
serves  as  a  resource  to  legislators.  At  UNCW  for  the  opening  of  the  Center  for  Marine  Science 
in  March,  Schaff  was  proud  of  his  alma  mater  and  how  marine  science  has  flourished  at  UNCW 
over  the  post  decade.  "We're  going  to  be  leaders  in  this, "  he  observed,  noting  UNCW  has  one 
of  the  largest  undergraduate  programs  around  and  the  center  leadership  is  progressive  in 
taking  on  significant  environmental  issues.

University  mourns  death 
of  chancellor  emeritus 

Dr.  William  Hampton  Wagoner, 
fourth  president  of  Wilmington 
College  and  first  chancellor  of  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Wilmington,  died  on  Nov.  19, 
1999. 

He  was  born  May  12,  1927,  and  re- 
tired from  UNCW  in  1990. 

Chancellor  James  R.  Leutze,  who 
succeeded  Dr.  Wagoner  at  UNCW, 
called  him  the  "George  Washing- 
ton of  this  institution.  I  benefited,        Wagoner 
and  every  chancellor  who  follows 

me  will  benefit  from  his  extraordinary  vision  and  energy  in 
planning  and  building  the  foundation  for  this  institution." 

Dr.  Wagoner's  retirement  in  1990  came  after  a  career  in 
education  that  spanned  more  than  40  years.  His  career  in 
higher  education  began  July  1,  1968,  when  he  was  named 
president  of  Wilmington  College.  After  one  year,  the  college 
became  part  of  the  University  of  North  Carolina  system. 

Under  the  22  years  of  his  leadership,  he  shaped  a  small 
community  college  into  a  graduate  degree-granting  insti- 
tution and  made  the  school  a  vital  link  in  the  UNC  system. 
The  student  body  grew  from  1,240  in  the  fall  of  1968  to 
6,003  in  the  fall  of  1989.  The  faculty  of  93  in  1968  expanded 
to  397  by  the  fall  of  1989. 

The  basic  organizational  structure  of  the  university  was  es- 
tablished under  his  leadership,  with  the  formation  of  the 
Cameron  School  of  Business,  School  of  Education  (now 
the  Watson  School  of  Education),  the  College  of  Arts  and 
Sciences,  the  School  of  Nursing  and  the  Graduate  School. 
UNCW's  preeminence  in  marine  science  was  begun  as  a 
vision  of  Chancellor  Wagoner  and  his  trustees  to  capitalize 
on  the  university's  proximity  to  estuaries  and  the  Atlantic 
Ocean  to  build  its  specialty  area  of  expertise. 

The  physical  plant  of  the  modified  Georgian  campus  ex- 
panded greatly  under  his  leadership,  including  the  addi- 
tion of  Trask  Coliseum,  Randall  Library,  the  University 
Union  and  the  university's  first  residence  halls.  Kenan 
House  was  given  to  UNCW  to  become  the  chancellor's  offi- 
cial residence  in  1969,  and  Dr.  Wagoner  lived  there  with 
his  family  until  1990. 

After  his  retirement,  Wagoner  Drive  in  the  front  of  campus 
and  Wagoner  Hall  dining  facility  were  named  in  his  honor. 
He  set  the  tone  for  conservation  of  environmentally  sensi- 
tive portions  of  campus  when  he  set  aside  10  acres  for  the 
Bleuthenthal  Wildflower  Preserve  in  1974.
