Good communications is the key to the success of any organization.
To provide information about University and Alumni Association activities, a number of communications are available to alumni. These publications include the quarterly UNC Charlotte Magazine for Alumni and Friends , the Alumni Association Annual Report , and various alumni newsletters published by chapters and University departments. In addition to these publications, alumni can gain useful information from a 1996 book on the history of UNC Charlotte and from the Bylaws of the Alumni Association of UNC Charlotte. Named for UNC Charlotte's second chancellor and his wife, the E.K. and Dorrie Fretwell Building is the University's newest and largest academic building. It houses the College of Arts and Sciences dean's office and more than a dozen academic departments.
