Join the WilmU Book Club for an online discussion of "The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder", by David Grann. From the author of Killers of the Flower Moon, this gripping historical narrative recounts the true story of a British naval shipwreck in the 18th century that led to chaos, survival struggles, and accusations of mutiny and murder. This month’s discussion will dive into leadership under crisis, survival ethics, and how history shapes the stories we tell.

📖 Join the WilmU Book Club for an online discussion of "The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue", by V. E. Schwab. In this imaginative and lyrical novel, Addie LaRue makes a desperate bargain to live forever — but with a haunting twist: she is forgotten by everyone she meets. Spanning centuries and continents, this story explores identity, legacy, memory, and what it truly means to be seen. Join us as we discuss time, love, art, and the human desire to leave a mark on the world.

🎉 Join us for Wilmington University’s Giving Day on Tuesday, April 21. On Giving Day, alumni come together to unlock opportunity and open doors for today's students and tomorrow's leaders.

Giving Day is a 24-hour opportunity for the WilmU community to come together and make a meaningful impact.
When alumni, faculty, and staff give, they help unlock opportunity for our students and open doors to education, growth, and success. Every gift – no matter the size – strengthens scholarships, programs, and the student experience.

You can choose to support a variety of areas, including athletics, student scholarships, the University library, and WilmU’s food pantry, The Den.

Join fellow Wildcats in supporting the future of WilmU students.
