UNCA in the news

TO: UNC Asheville Board of Trustees, UNC Asheville Foundation Board, UNC Asheville National Alumni Advisory Council, UNC Asheville National Parents Council, UNC Asheville Alumni Volunteers, WNC Board of Governors

DATE: August 18, 2006

We thought you'd like to know that the new U.S. News & World Report rankings came out today and UNC Asheville has again been named the Fifth Best Public Liberal Arts College in the Nation. This is the sixth consecutive year that UNC Asheville has been among the top five. The University also continues to rank among the top in the nation for its Undergraduate Research Program and Freshman Colloquium. To see the complete news release, please go to http://www.unca.edu/news/releases/2006/USNews.html

In addition, UNC Asheville was among a dozen recommended colleges and universities briefly discussed today by CNN educational expert Carlos Watson on "The View," an ABC daytime talk show hosted by Barbara Walters.

My thoughts
*In light of recent events on "The View," I'm not convinced that it was the best outlet for UNCA to be discussed ;)
