UNC Wilmington The University of North Carolina Wilmington boasts of undergraduate learning opportunities second to none and professors whose commitment to knowledge is surpassed only by their dedication to students. It offers effective learning environments that integrate teaching and mentoring with research and service at a level that rivals exclusive research institutions of similar size. Students consistently praise the quality of their interactions with faculty and express a high degree of satisfaction with their overall educational experience. The faculty culture emphasizes teaching and mentoring, incorporating research as an important component of the undergraduate learning experience and an opportunity to have an impact on the state’s most pressing issues. International experiences are encouraged through study abroad programs and language and culture studies on campus. Recognized in recent years by several national publications as a top public undergraduate institution, UNCW continues its pursuit to soar to even greater heights. “The UNCW of today is a fantastic university,” said Chancellor Rosemary DePaolo. “The momentum that propels us to soar higher derives from our students’ achievements, faculty and staff accomplishments and strong support from alumni, friends, trustees, volunteer board members and other donors.” For 12 consecutive years UNCW has ranked in the top 10 of the best public regional universities in the South by U.S.News & World Report. For the sixth consecutive year, UNCW received the “Best in the Southeast” and “Best Value” designations by The Princeton Review. It is one of only four North Carolina public universities included in Peterson’s Competitive Colleges 2008: Top Colleges for Top Students. This year, UNCW joined the ranks of an exclusive group of higher education institutions included in the Fiske Guide to Colleges. Established as Wilmington College in 1947, the university is made up of the College of Arts and Sciences, the Cameron School of Business, the School of Nursing, the Watson School of Education and the Graduate School. UNC Wilmington offers bachelor’s degrees in 52 majors, 35 master’s degrees, a Ph.D. in marine biology and an Ed.D. in educational leadership and administration. Degree programs in the School of Nursing, Watson School of Education and Cameron School of Business are designed specifically to serve professional workforce needs in the region. The College of Arts and Sciences stresses applied learning experiences across the liberal arts disciplines to prepare its students to bridge the gap between the classroom and the complex problems of 21st century communities. UNCW’s strength in the natural sciences, especially biological sciences, chemistry, geological sciences and other disciplines that form the core of its internationally respected niche in marine science, is the result of decades of intentional focus and investment. In the arts and literature, UNCW’s high profile programs are film studies and creative writing. The Department of Film Studies takes advantage of the location of UNCW in Wilmington, N.C., the home of Screen Gems Studios, the largest full-service motion picture facility in the United States east of California. The Master of Fine Arts in creative writing is one of the most respected on the East Coast, cited as one of “Five Top Innovative/ Unique Programs in Creative Writing” in 2007 by Atlantic Monthly. The university has taken a leadership role in the long-term economic, environmental, educational, social and cultural health of the region. It has a strong commitment to adult learners and offers short, non-credit university courses, seminars, lectures, travel excursions and other educational opportunities. Overall, the university has an annual $500 million economic impact on the eight-county region. This represents 10 percent of total economic activity in the seven-county region.

UNCW Administration Rosemary DePaolo, Chancellor Rosemary DePaolo became chancellor and chief executive officer of the University of North Carolina Wilmington in July 2003. During her tenure, the university has attained national prominence as a model for teaching, research, and service. Chancellor DePaolo has led the university to greatness by developing strategies and processes to recruit and retain the highest quality of diverse faculty and staff, attract the highest quality of students, reduce faculty-to-student ratios, improve retention and graduation rates, provide the buildings necessary to support a world class campus environment, and encourage more private philanthropic support than ever. She has overseen the construction and renovation of $250 million in public and private supported projects resulting in 15 new or renovated buildings. A $30.1 million state-of-the art nursing building is under construction, and the third phase of new campus housing, as well as the first parking deck on campus, opened in August 2009. The additional housing brought UNCW to its goal of 40 percent of its undergraduate students living on campus. Private support has increased dramatically under her leadership. Generous supporters have allowed UNCW to set fundraising records for four years in a row. During this period, donors gave the university more than $30 million to support scholarships, professorships, academics, faculty research, athletics, student life experiences, and more, resulting in an increase in the university’s endowment by more than 50 percent. Under her guidance, UNCW achieved Millennial Campus designation of several sites to be used for public/private research ventures capitalizing on the university’s strengths in marine biotechnology, among others. She has encouraged the university community to work closely with government, health, education, non-profit and business leaders in the region through a number of formal and informal collaborations, including a recently established partnership with the Wilmington Housing Authority to provide educational services at one of their community centers. Chancellor DePaolo is actively involved in a wide range of civic activities, including service on a number of boards. These include serving on the Board of Directors and Executive Committee for the North Carolina Chamber, the state’s largest and most influential business group, Ex-officio member of the Greater Wilmington Chamber of Commerce, Chair of the Southeastern Advisory Committee for Biotechnology of the North Carolina Biotechnology Center and Executive Board of the North Carolina Campus Compact. A nationally recognized champion for higher education, Chancellor DePaolo served on a Higher Education Cabinet established by the New York Times and the Chronicle of Higher Education. She has served on the Board of Directors of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities and the Association of American Colleges and Universities, and is also a current member of the Colonial Athletic Association’s Council of Presidents. UNCW has been praised by various publications for quality, affordability, and innovation. U.S. News & World Report has consistently ranked the university as one of the top 10 public master’s universities in the South, and Forbes placed UNCW second among best public universities in North Carolina. Kiplinger’s Personal Finance listed UNCW as one of the top 25 “Best Values” among public universities in the nation and one of the top three in North Carolina. Before arriving in Wilmington, Chancellor DePaolo was president of Georgia College & State University. She holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Queens College of the City University of New York and a master of arts and a doctorate in 18th century English literature from Rutgers University. A native of Long Island, N.Y, she is married to Fred Wharton, a retired professor of English.

Academically, all of UNCW’s 19 intercollegiate teams finished above the multi-year score of 925 in the NCAA’s most recent APR report, and several were honored by the respective governing bodies for their work in the classroom in 2008-09.

In the spring of 2010, UNCW will serve as the host institution for the NCAA Division I Women’s Golf Championships at the Country Club of Landfall. Prior to her appointment at UNCW on July 2, 2007, Mehrtens compiled an impressive administrative resume at four institutions after record-setting days as an All-American student-athlete at the University of Alabama. A native of Panama City, Fla., Mehrtens previously spent almost four years as Associate Director of Athletics and Senior Women’s Administrator at the University of Kansas. As a key member of KU’s senior administrative team, she oversaw 15 men’s and women’s sports with operating budgets totaling more than $15 million, serving as a highly-efficient manager of high profile revenue and non-revenue sports programs. In addition to handling numerous senior administrative duties in Lawrence, the 46-year-old Mehrtens also established a successful track record in the fund-raising realm. She played a key role on KU’s fundraising team that has racked up $19 million in facility improvements in three years. In addition, she helped the Jayhawks increase their annual giving in athletics from $5 million in 2003 to $12 million. Mehrtens has truly been an advocate of the student-athlete. She developed KU’s Student-Athlete Development/Leadership Program and worked with the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee to raise $1 million to help fund women’s sports facilities. Prior to joining the staff at Kansas, Mehrtens worked in a similar capacity at the University of Illinois. She oversaw all operations for men’s basketball, women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s track and field, women’s track and field, men’s golf, women’s golf, women’s swimming and softball for the Illini. She also administered game contracts and scheduling for men’s basketball, coordinated post-season travel for men’s and women’s basketball and performed numerous other senior management-level duties, including the creation of a softball program and overseeing construction of a $1.7 million softball facility in Champaign. From 1989-92, Mehrtens worked as Assistant Athletic Director for Business and Senior Women’s Administrator at the University of Miami. She managed the program’s $20 million budget and was responsible for financial planning and budgets for all of the Hurricane programs. Prior to her stint in Coral Gables, Mehrtens served as Special Assistant to the Director at Northeastern’s University Center for the Study of Sport In Society and as Assistant Athletic Director for Business in NU’s women’s athletics department. Mehrtens also spent two years as Executive Director of S.M.A.R.T. Sports, Inc., a community-based partnership program to provide mentoring for youth in Miami, Fla., between the Miami and Illinois appointments. As a student-athlete, Mehrtens enjoyed a successful collegiate career at Alabama. She threw the discus on the women’s track team, collecting All-American honors in 1985 and making the World University Games and Pan American Teams in 1987. She finished fourth in the 1992 U.S. Olympic Trials. Mehrtens earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Commerce and Business Administration from Alabama in 1986 and completed her Master’s Degree in Education from Illinois in 2001. Mehrtens was very active on the Big 12 Conference and NCAA fronts. She served on the prestigious NCAA Division I Management Council and on the Big 12 Strategic Plan Review Committee and Championships and Awards Committee.

Coaching Staff Bob Berke 11th year Bob Berke enters his 11th year as an assistant track coach at UNCW. Berke specializes in coaching the pole vaulters. In his 10 seasons, the men and women Seahawk vaulters have won seven conference championships. He coached the first IC4A track champion for UNCW. Last season, four vaulters competed in the prestigious Penn Relays and three competed in the IC4A/ECAC Championships. Berke began pole vaulting in high school when fiberglass poles were first introduced. He went on to play basketball for Pittsburgh where he received his Bachelor’s Degree in Math in 1974 and his master’s in 1975. He spent the next nine years flying jets for the Navy. In 1984, he joined USAirways and is employed as an airline captain. He retired from the U.S. Naval Reserves in 1994. After a 26-year hiatus from pole vaulting, Berke became involved with the Seahawk track team. He has developed the Wilmington area into a bastion of pole vaulting. The track team has successfully recruited state high school pole vault champions from North Carolina and surrounding states. Berke is a USATF Level II jumps and combined events coach and has been instrumental in building UNCW’s vaulting facilities into the finest in the state. He organized the Wrightsville Beach Vault for five years. In addition, through USATF, he founded the Wilmington Vault Club. Berke has resumed his own vaulting career and is a USATF All-American. He trains regularly with Earl Bell, the 1984 Olympic Bronze medalist, in Jonesboro, Ark., and is a member of the North American Pole Vault Association, which develops Olympic caliber vaulters. His goal is to raise UNCW to the national level in pole vault.
Anne Powell returns in 2010 hoping to give the Seahawks their 11th CAA pole vaulting title. In 2009, Powell finished eighth at the CAA Championships and qualified for the ECAC Championships.
Layne Schwier 7th year
Layne Schwier enters his seventh year as an assistant coach with the Seahawks and is responsible for coaching the men’s and women’s distance programs during both the cross country and the track seasons. His squads continue to make strides in the CAA in cross country and expect to contribute once again on the track as both teams make another run at a CAA Championship. Distance runners under Schwier currently hold 72 spots on UNCW’s Top 10 all-time lists, with 43 being achieved by current team members. In addition to improved running performance, the squads have excelled in the classroom with both the women’s and men’s cross country teams being named All-Academic teams by the USTFCCCA. For the women, that marks the sixth straight year they have earned that distinction. Schwier’s athletes have been named Academic AllAmerican eight times. The 2009 track season was the most successful for the Seahawk distance runners under Schwier. The Seahawks saw two school records broken at the Penn Relays. Junior Kathleen Casto set the 10k record and the women’s 4x800m relay record also was rewritten. Additionally, Casto moved up to second all-time at UNCW in the 5,000m when she finished fifth at the CAA Championships. The 10,000m race at the CAA Championship saw three Seahawks score points, led by Bernadette O’Neill in fourth place, along with Lauren Wells and Lauren Mohr in seventh and eighth respectively. All four qualified for the prestigious ECAC Championships.

The men’s 4x800m relay team qualified for the prestigious IC4A Outdoor Championships where they ran 7:35 and just missed making the finals.

Under his guidance, the Seahawks achieved 27 All-CAA performances (12 individual titles), 25 IC4A/ECAC qualifiers (7 All-East performances and 4 Champions), 17 NCAA Regional qualifiers, and broke five school records. They also qualified an athlete to the NCAA Championships four out of those five years, including the first for the women’s track & field program when Christie Schreckengost qualified in the javelin in 2004. A highlight in Schwier’s coaching career was his role in the emergence of Anna Raynor in the javelin. Despite having no experience in the event before college, Raynor ended her career as a three-time All-American (11th at NCAA’s in 2005, fourth in 2006 and 2007), CAA Champion, ECAC Champion, two-time Penn Relays Champion, as well as the CAA and UNCW record holder in the javelin. In addition to being named the CAA Track & Field Athlete-of-the-Year for the third consecutive year in 2007, Raynor was also named the Southeast Region Field Athlete-of-the-Year. In the summer of 2007, Raynor finished third at the USA National Championships. As a member of Team USA that summer, she took the silver medal at the NACAC Senior Games in El Salvador. Prior to arriving in Wilmington, Schwier spent two seasons with the Ball State University women’s track & field program. During his stint with the Cardinals, Schwier coached NCAA qualifier Janee Langhorne to a Mid-American Conference Indoor Championship, where she also set a Mid-American Conference record in the Weight Throw. BSU also became the first MAC school to qualify a women’s team to the NCAA Cross Country National Championship while Schwier was on the staff.

Colonial Athletic Association With more than two decades of success athletically and academically, the Colonial Athletic Association has established a reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences. The CAA encompasses five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta. The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five different sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players of the year, 11 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award winners. Even more impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 20 NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2007-08, the CAA had five ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans and more than 1,700 of our 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s Academic Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering in a varsity sport. The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority of the East Coast and includes six of the nation’s top 25 media markets – New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston (7), Washington, D.C. (8), Atlanta (9) and Baltimore (24). The number of television homes in the CAA market exceeds 19.7 million. The CAA currently sponsors 22 sports with the addition of a 12-team football league in 2007. Male athletes compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field and volleyball. In 2007-08, 26 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 46 studentathletes received All-America honors. The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s basketball with at least three teams advancing to post-season play for the past five years. Last season, conference champion George Mason earned its third NCAA Tournament trip since 2001, VCU received its fourth post-season berth in five seasons with a spot in the NIT and Old Dominion reached the quarterfinals of the inaugural CBI for its fourth consecutive postseason appearance. The conference also excels in many other sports. CAA squads have combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981. Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship. For the first time, three women’s soccer teams reached the second The CAA Landscape round of the NCAA Tournament in 2007 and at least one men’s soccer team has advanced to the final 16 of the NCAA ChampiInstitution Enrollment Location onship in five of the last six years.

Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its current members- George Mason University, James Madison University and the College of William and Mary - were aligned with East Carolina University, the United States Naval Academy and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South). During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and American University) and decided to form a new association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985. Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University in 1991 and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State University and Northeastern University became members of the conference on July 1, 2005.

CHAMPS/Life Skills Meets Student-Athlete Needs
To prepare student-athletes for the challenges of life beyond the playing field, UNCW and the NCAA team up in the popular CHAMPS/Life Skills Program. UNCW is currently one of 664 institutions involved in the popular program. The CHAMPS/Life Skills Program is designed to provide student-athletes with the education and the experiences to assist them in bridging the gap between college life and professional life in the work world and to make meaningful contributions to their communities. The CHAMPS/Life Skills Program focuses on five commitment areas viewed as critical to personal growth: (1) Academic Excellence - to support the academic progress of the studentathlete toward intellectual development and graduation. (2) Athletic Excellence - to build philosophical foundations for the development of athletic programs that are broad-based, equitable and dedicated to the well-being of the student-athlete. (3) Personal Development - to support the development of a wellbalanced lifestyle for the student-athlete, encouraging emotional well-being, personal growth and decision-making skills. (4) Career Development - to encourage each student-athlete to develop and pursue their career and life goals. (5) Service - to engage the student-athlete in service to his or her campus and surrounding communities. The NCAA has worked with its member institutions and educational consultants to create instructional materials and program models to address the needs of today’s student-athletes. Topics such as diversity education, developing sexual responsibility, nutrition, eating disorder prevention and awareness, time management, community service and career development are just some of the areas covered within the curriculum. A freshman seminar course is designed to assist student-athletes in making the transition to college, this seminar focuses on college-level study skills, time management, awareness of available university services, etc. It is open only to entering freshmen and generates two hours of elective credit toward graduation.

being only minutes away from barrier islands, broad beaches and the intracoastal waterway. The 200-block Historic District highlighting the downtown area opens into a scenic riverfront park that overlooks the USS North Carolina Battleship Memorial. A beautifully restored battleship, the USS North Carolina was considered the greatest sea weapon in the world when commissioned in 1941. During World War II, “The Showboat” earned 15 battlestars and participated in every major naval offensive in the Pacific from Guadalcanal to Okinawa. A memorial since 1961, the battleship is dedicated to the men and women of all U.S. military services who defended our country during WWII. One of Wilmington’s most unique features is the city’s status as the leading entertainment production center in the Southeast. The city’s evolution into “Hollywood East” began when Dino DeLaurentis shot Stephen King’s Firestarter in 1984. One year later, Dino DeLaurentis constructed a studio facility in the Port City and the complex, now owned by EUE/Screen Gems, is the largest production studio east of Hollywood, offering nine sound stages on a 32-acre site near the Wilmington International Airport. Numerous movies, television series and commericals have been filmed in Wilmington. The popular show, “Dawson’s Creek,” was produced in Wilmington and shot frequently on the UNCW campus as well as Warner Bros. hit “One Tree Hill.” A film-friendly community, Wilmington residents have embraced the industry, often appearing as “extras” in movies. It’s not uncommon for celebrities the likes of Sandra Bullock, Nick Nolte, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise and Dennis Hopper to be seen dining at a restaurant, shopping at the mall or just simply walking along the shore. Wrightsville Beach, just minutes away from Wilmington’s downtown area, is a year-round island resort. Wide, uncrowded beaches, full service marinas and a variety of accommodations are complemented by excellent seafood restaurants, specialty shops and exciting nightlife.
