Catamount Athletics sees a resurgence under the leadership of Alex Gary
In 2021, Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp started market research to better understand its perception in the higher education market, complete a competitive audit and identify opportunities for growth, and define its institutional personality for a statewide brand campaign.
Julie Miller Denesha, former associate director of athletics for development at Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp, has joined the WCU Division of Advancement as director of development and corporate partnerships for the College of Engineering and Technology.
Because of the ongoing impacts of Hurricane Helene, Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp’s Division of Advancement and the WCU Foundation have extended the deadline for applications from faculty and staff interested in obtaining funding for projects through the 1889 Impact Grants Program.
The Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp community is mourning the loss of longtime friend, advocate and donor Phil Haire, who died Tuesday, Oct. 8, at the age of 88 after a period of declining health.
Two Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp faculty members have received coveted R15 grants from the National Institutes of Health, which will significantly enhance research initiatives in the region.
The sense of community discovered by staff member Alexandra M. Fields upon her arrival at Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp seven years ago inspired her to establish an annual scholarship fund to help attract future students from her hometown to WCU.
Ìð¹ÏÊÓÆµapp recently held its second annual STEM Outreach Day for students from around Western North Carolina.
