Project Military Messages

Please help the Office for Adult Students continue to make "Project Military" a success. "Project Military" was created after realizing that several members of the UNCG family (students and staff) were serving our country militarily at this time. If you would like to volunteer for the event, just stop by our office during OAS hours and fill out a personal message to our troops. We will take your picture, holding your own personalized message and e-mail that to UNCG's students and/or staff members that are overseas. Come help us with this excellent program and bring a friend!
