Sustainability Series
The Sustainability Series is a partnership with the university committee, several groups and organizations on and off campus in a joined effort to inform students of issues that directly apply to them. Sustainability is not always specific to the environment, but includes all aspects in providing for posterity, meaning that actions today affect outcomes of tomorrow and future generations. Sustainability can be described as each of us doing our part to build the kind of world—economically, environmentally and socially—that we want to live in, and one that we want our children and grandchildren to inherit. It means becoming aware of all interconnections—visible and invisible—in which our day-to-day choices affect the intricate balance of social, economic and ecological systems.
With that in mind, the sustainability series offers informative movies and discussions once a month and a sustainability fair. At the fair, students have the opportunity to speak with local groups and on-campus organizations to learn what steps they can take to make a difference.

Ghoulish Gala
Ghoulish Gala is the traditional Halloween program where offices located in the Fisher Student Center, University Union, and Warwick Center decorate according to a theme they choose. Students then walk around to all the areas, learning about each one and voting on their favorite decorated office. A winner is picked from participating students and a prize awarded.

THINK-PINK!®
THINK-PINK!® is a philanthropic effort between the University College freshmen seminar classes and UNCW Presents. Ribbons and information, provided by the alumnae of ZTA sorority, are passed out to all students during October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Donations are accepted and all monies are sent to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Information conveys the message of early detection as the key to survival and a greater quality of life. People wear the ribbons to show awareness of and support for those surviving breast cancer and to remember those who lost the fight against this disease. The national THINK-PINK!® program was started in 1992 by ZTA Sorority. To learn more about the THINK-PINK!® program, click HERE.
