UNCW Greeks to
live on campus
Three UNCW Greek organiza
tions will reside on campus begin
ning fall 1986. Sixty students from
Delta Tau Delta Fraternity, Alpha
Delta Pi and Delta Zeta sororities
will have 30 rooms in Residence
Hall ’85, UNCW’s newest residence
facility which opened October 1985.
Special-interest group housing is
a first for UNCW and resulted
from recommendations from resi
dence life and Greek life task
forces. All UNCW student organi
zations, including the 15 Greek
groups, were offered the opportuni
ty for on-campus housing. Each
organization had to guarantee oc
cupancy of the allocated space and
agree to be active in residence life.
"We feel these students will bene
fit from and be a benefit to resi
dence life activities. The Greeks
can be positive role models for
other students,” said Gail Young,
coordinator for residence life.
The experimental program will
provide on-campus housing for two
years, with an evaluation after the
first year. There are no plans to
offer housing to additional groups.
"If this program is successful
and we have adequate space, we
would like to offer housing to more
groups, and make available hous
ing options such as a non-smoking
floor,” said Dr. Richard Mullen-
dore, dean of students.
Kim Williams of Delta Zeta So
rority says that her group looks for
ward to on-campus living and can
enrich student life by sharing some
of the values and experiences of
Greek life.

UNCW in retrospect: the Wilmington College campus, 1962
One can appreciate the growth of the UNCW campus by taking a step back in time to 1962 when this photo pictured a campus of three
buildings: (clockwise) Alderman Hall, which housed administrative offices, 10 classrooms, and the library; Hoggard Hall, which housed
classrooms, an art studio and science labs; and James Hall, which housed student /faculty lounges, an assembly room, muslc/lecture
studios and a snackbar. Brogden Hall on Market Street served as the gym and auditorium. The 1962 enrollment was 781 students. Today
the campus has 42 buildings and an enrollment of approximately 5778 students. UNCW moved to its present site in 1961 and became
a constituent institution of The University of North Carolina in 1969.
