The New Short Film Festival

The New Short Film Festival is a film festival that the DMC is producing this year to promote experimental film making.

The first screening was held in the Staff Room on Monday.  We will have two more screenings, one on February 23rd 6pm-8pm led by Micheal Frierson of the Media Studies department, and one on March 30th 6pm-8pm led by Lee Walton of the Art department. 

The final screening on April 27th will be a selection of experimental films that have been submitted and selected for inclusion in the festival.

Visit the blog to see pictures from the first screening and learn more about the festival.  Everyone is welcome to attend!

Jackson Library in the sunset

Hi all,

I took this photograph of Jackson Library the day before Thanksgiving, but never got around to sharing it until now. I thought others might like to see it.

Hope you all have a great holidays!

Reuse and Recycle for the Holidays!

Here are some items from the UNCG Office of Sustainability Newsletter:

Trash from holiday wrapping paper totals over 4 million tons each year. Wrap your gifts in used wrapping paper! 

If every American family wrapped just 3 presents in reused materials instead of newly bought wrapping paper, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields.

If every family in the U.S. reused two feet of holiday ribbon, it would save 38,000 miles of ribbon – enough to tie a bow around the entire planet.


You can reuse wrapping paper and gift bags, and both can be recycled in the commingled recycling bins.

Have a great holiday!
