Paths to a More Walkable UNCG Campus

College is a journey, not a destination. Sometimes, that journey encompasses the stroll from lunch to class to the library for studying. Nestled within a bustling hub in the center of North Carolina, UNCG has grown alongside Greensboro. Here’s how campus transformed into a space that accommodates 18,000 students.

New Favorite Outdoor Spots at UNCG

Students have settled into their dorms and figured out their class schedules. But it’s just as important for them to decide where they spend their leisure time. UNCG offers many outdoor spots that promote a healthy routine, mental well-being, or just enjoying the crisp fall air.
