By the age of 30, he was sole owner of the Staten Island Advance and on his way to becoming a world media giant. Throughout his life, Newhouse remained dedicated to the media and communications programs at Syracuse. He sponsored the creation of an on-campus studio and various contributions from Newhouse and his family over the years have supported programs and improvements to the school and the University. Newhouse died in 1979 at the age of 84.

THE MEANING OF WONGU Wongu (圓球) literally means a “round ball.” It represents all elements that exist in nature and suggests the harmony that exists within them and between all people. By extension, it also refers to the origin of life as well as the seeds of Oriental medicine. As is true of all things that are at one with nature, a healer’s journey involves achieving balance and harmony in the lives of patients as well as the healer. Coupled with the meaning of Wongu,… [+] the University’s logo of the three circles represent the traditional Sam Taegeuk (three Taiji) , a Korean symbol representing heaven, human, and earth. The logo aims to present how the three move and work together in harmony. LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENT In Historic Nevada In 1973, Nevada became the first state in the United States to grant licenses to practitioners of Oriental medicine. Among California and 20 other states with schools of Oriental medicine, Nevada stands out as one among only three states recognizing doctors in Oriental medicine, i.e. OMDs as distinguished from licensed acupuncturists. Wongu, located in this historic state, will emerge as a leader in the advancement of traditional Oriental medicine. Las Vegas as the Hub of the World Las Vegas is a place of global attraction, hosting a variety of international conventions, including world-class exhibitions and conferences for medical professionals on a yearly basis. It provides a myriad of hotel and convention center choices for the gathering of leading practitioners and researchers with convenient distance to the airport. Las Vegas visitors and residents, together with the Wongu University community, can mutually benefit from opportunities arising out of such global assemblies and the exchange of wider knowledge. Easy access to such abundant resources qualifies this city as a premier location for a school of Oriental medicine. Wongu’s Facilities Wongu University has over 12,000 sq. feet in two adjacent buildings to meet the needs of both didactic and clinical education. The two buildings house spacious classrooms, administrative offices, a library, student and faculty lounge areas, kitchen, and Wongu Health Center. All facilities are conveniently located on 8620 and 8630 S. Eastern Ave, Las Vegas, Nevada, 89123; allowing for students and faculty to use the 110 bus line to travel to campus. In addition, Wongu provides roughly 65 parking spaces for students, faculty, and staff. Wongu University of Oriental Medicine’s structures have been newly renovated; and in particular, Wongu Health Center, the only teaching community OM clinic in Nevada, has a beautiful meditation room, a patient lounge, herbal dispensary, administrative and practitioner’s offices, an intern lounge, and nine professional treatment rooms. Classrooms are fully equipped with teaching aids, including white boards, charts, overhead projectors and screens, anatomical models, and other teaching aids. All of the classrooms contain desks, chairs, and treatment tables for demonstration. The classroom used for practicum classes is equipped with 10 treatment tables. [-]

About UNCW A Vision Founded on UNCW Values UNCW's vision is built on the university's deepest values. This vision reflects our hopes, dreams and expectations, but it is also designed to help UNCW face great challenges and opportunities in the years to come. The university's strength lies in three enduring values: A commitment to the journey of learning A love of place and An unshakable conviction in the power of ideas and innovation Commitment… [+] to the Journey UNCW has always emphasized students' journeys to inquire and discover, and through those processes, to better themselves and their communities. Our deepest and most sustaining value is our fundamental commitment to this journey. The university further strengthens these journeys through its time-honored focus on the collaboration of students and faculty in research and scholarship. Love of Place Our vision for the future must include a strong sense of place. To be a national and global leader in demonstrating how universities can serve their regions, we must come to understand and embrace the importance of our coastal location between the Atlantic Ocean and the Cape Fear River. As North Carolina's coastal university, UNCW must utilize its location to explore modern questions related to commerce, human health, nutrition, the environment and social and cultural dynamics. There is no complete understanding of human history, the human condition or literature and music and art in the absence of the sea. The Power of Ideas and Innovation Our faculty, staff and students are inventing the future by embracing a culture of innovation. Creating this culture will involve examining traditions, taking risks, making difficult choices and accepting and learning from failure. The university's innovative culture is built on UNCW's educational philosophy, which is rooted squarely in the liberal arts and sciences. Our ideals of inquiry, comparison, critical thinking and creativity are the perfect garden of invention. Academics The university is organized into the following academic units: Cameron School of Business College of Arts and Sciences College of Health and Human Services Graduate School Watson College of Education Degrees offered include: 55 bachelor's degrees offered in 49 majors 42 master degree programs Ph.D. in marine biology Ed.D. in educational leadership and administration Our Mission The University of North Carolina Wilmington, the state’s coastal university, is dedicated to the integration of teaching and mentoring with research and service. Our commitment to student engagement, creative inquiry, critical thinking, thoughtful expression, and responsible citizenship is expressed in our baccalaureate and masters’ programs, as well as doctoral programs in areas of expertise that serve state needs. Our culture reflects our values of diversity and globalization, ethics and integrity, and excellence and innovation. SACS Accredited The University of North Carolina Wilmington is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees. Contact the Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Ga., 30033-4097 or call 404-679-4500 for questions about the accreditation of UNC Wilmington. Seahawk Points of Pride The University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW), located in the historic port city of Wilmington, has been part of the UNC system since 1969. Widely acknowledged for its superb faculty and staff, and continuously recognized at a national level for scholarly excellence and affordability, UNCW offers a powerful academic experience that stimulates creative inquiry, critical thinking, thoughtful expression and responsible citizenship. UNCW, a public institution with more than 14,000 students, offers an array of high-quality programs at the baccalaureate and master's levels as well as select doctoral programs. UNCW offers a number of distance learning options, including an accelerated R.N.-to-B.S.N. program, taught exclusively online, that is specifically structured for working professionals. See academics for more information about the university's educational programs. The university also operates extension sites in several regional counties. UNCW, recognized nationally as a military-friendly university, works closely with Coastal Carolina Community College, Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) New River to offer programs designed for military personnel and their families. UNCW has the top transfer student graduation rate in the University of North Carolina system as well as one of the leading four-year graduation rates. In December 2013, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) reaffirmed the University of North Carolina Wilmington's reaccreditation, which will remain in effect until the next review in 2023. UNCW's review from SACS requires no additional reporting requirements, an accomplishment that only an average of 35 percent of universities achieve. UNCW's faculty has created a multi-disciplinary, applied learning model - known as ETEAL (Experiencing Transformative Education through Applied Learning) - that incorporates internships, study abroad, community-based projects, research, directed independent study options and other educational opportunities. ETEAL inspires students to focus on creative inquiry, critical thinking skills, and written and verbal communication. UNCW and Cape Fear Community College (CFCC) created a total of $1.2 billion in added regional income for fiscal year 2012-13, according to analysis from Economic Modeling Specialists International (EMSI). Assessing each campus's impact on the regional economy, EMSI analyzed payroll and operations spending, construction spending, and the spending of students, visitors, alumni and start-up companies. According to Moody's Investor Service, UNCW's market strength, sustained enrollment growth, healthy financial operations and track record of state support contributed to its April 2015 decision to affirm the existing A1 underlying rating on UNCW's General Revenue Bonds and the A2 rating on the university's Certificates of Participation. The credit rating agency also assigned an A2 rating to UNCW's proposed Refunding Limited Obligation Bonds. When evaluating sponsored research, UNCW is included in the top tier of master's institutions in the UNC system. The university's R&D expenditures per full-time equivalency (FTE) faculty ranks fourth in the system. The university incorporates diversity and inclusion, global perspectives and community engagement into its programs. UNCW has formed numerous partnerships with schools, governmental agencies and nonprofits that provide students with internships, volunteer opportunities and research experiences. In February 2015, the Peace Corps recognized UNCW as one of the nation's top volunteer-producing colleges and universities. UNCW frequently receives national recognition for quality and affordability from Kiplinger's Personal Finance, U.S. News & World Report, The Princeton Review and other publications.
