Join the club

No matter where you are, you can stay connected to UNCG.

The Office of Alumni Relations and the UNCG Alumni Association have helped alumni start six regional UNCG Alumni Clubs. Currently, alumni have clubs in DC, Atlanta, NYC, Raleigh, Charlotte and Greensboro.

It's a winning combination for all involved.

Clubs give alumni a chance to socialize and network with others in their area. In addition to enjoying social gatherings, alumni can take part in educational programs featuring university professors or experts in your area and also keep the motto of “service” alive and well with projects to help your community.

For the university, alumni clubs serve as ambassadors for UNCG. Sometimes that means helping attract future Spartans by hosting admissions events and summer send-off gatherings. At other times, it means advocating for UNCG and higher education to legislators in your area.

If you would like to learn more about an alumni club in your area, contact Mary Swantek, assistant director of alumni relations for constituent programs, at (336) 256-2011 or email m_swante@uncg.edu.
