Submitting Information to @UNCW and the Seahawk Nest

Submit copy and contact information to UNCWeditor@uncw.edu. Information is accepted only from UNCW personnel sent from an official UNCW e-mail account. Postings will remain active for a week. If information is no longer available but may be necessary, a request to re-post may be sent to the editor.

Disclaimer 

UNCW maintains this Web site as a service to and a convenience for its employees. In posting the information, UNCW makes no warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied, including but not limited to, warranties of fitness of purpose or of merchantability.

Furthermore, UNCW expressly denies providing any guarantee or endorsement of the items listed or services provided. It is the responsibility of the employees to interact with prospective buyers and users regarding specific items and their merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, ownership and value.

At the sole discretion of the @UNCW editor, @UNCW may remove or decline to post information.

No Personal, Political, Commercial or Fund-Raising Business 

Employees are prohibited from using this Web site for conducting their personal business, fund-raising, commercial purposes or political activity. The annual State Employees Combined Campaign (SECC) is the only fund-raising activity that may post information on @UNCW.

No Ticket Scalping 

North Carolina law prohibits any person from selling or reselling tickets for more than $3 greater than the combined face value of the ticket and tax. Any person who sells or offers to sell a ticket for a price greater than the price permitted by North Carolina General Statute § 14-344 shall be guilty of a Class 2 misdemeanor.

E-mail Messages to Faculty and Staff 

Marketing & Communications reserves the right to disperse information to all UNCW faculty and staff through direct e-mail. Such messages will be limited to emergency and/or breaking news that directly impacts the well-being of faculty, staff and students, or messages from the Chancellor's Office. We will gladly post any UNCW departmental news and events on @UNCW.

Translation

One of the benefits of being Web-based is the ability for the information to be translated. We recommend AltaVista at http://babel.altavista.com, which enables Web site translations in several languages. Just copy-and-paste a Web address into their "Translate a Web page" field.

Announcements and Focus on People will remain on the site for a week from the date of posting. Printing on the same day each week ensures that readers are receiving important information - without repetition.

PDA and Pocket PC

Handheld device users can also use @UNCW. Use the Skip to Content link at the top left of each page. The text wraps automatically to fit the screen.
