All a-twitter

If you want to know the latest, or simply want to feel a part of day-to-day campus life, check out UNCG's new Twitter feed and Facebook fan page.

Just last week, alumni on the Twitter feed were the first to hear about the decision to renovate the Quad residence halls. Fans on Facebook were alerted to a Today show segment about the anonymous donor who gave several universities, including UNCG, millions of dollars toward scholarships.

And while you can turn to the sites for news, it's also a lot of fun.

Some recent tweets:

• For the c/o '13, the EU has always existed, women have always outnumbered men at college & no Saved By The Bell! http://bit.ly/PKYNf
