Executive Board Spotlight

By -
Looking forward to starting the 2017 Fall semester at UNC Charlotte, the Executive Board came together to discuss some of the reasons as to why they wanted to run for a position and get the ball rolling for their first *full* year on campus!

Jessica Martinez, a junior double majoring in Communications and Political Science, is presiding this party. She stated that she is ecstatic to begin her journey as president of the NeW chapter!! Her favorite thing about NeW is that,"it offers a wonderful opportunity to become a part of a network that empowers young women to become strong, bold, and educated leaders."



 Alexis Bowman, a senior majoring in Political Science and minoring in History and American Studies, and acts as Vice President. She's excited to spread the conservative message around campus and meeting women who share similar views and the rest of the executive board's views!
Hannah Whitlow, a sophomore majoring in Political Science and minoring in Criminal Justice, mans the credit card as Treasurer! She wanted to help the conservative movement on campus especially within the female demographic. She believes that women need to know it is okay to be feminine and have traditional conservative beliefs and NeW is just the place that embodies these ideas!

Sasha Duncan, a junior majoring in Communications and minoring in Sociology, is the Event Coordinator and Public Relations Chair. She wanted to become an officer for NeW because traditional feminism is an important topic that isn't talked about much anymore. She believes that NeW offers an outlet for women to discuss conservative topics with like-minded members!


Caroline O’Connor, a junior pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Music as well as a Bachelor of Arts in English with a concentration in Language and Digital Technology, is the executive note taker and blogger for the NeW website! Getting involved with Network of enlightened Women allows her to express her Conservative values with women who have the same standards and morals as herself - not only in politics, but also in life.

Now that you've met the team, we'd love to learn more about you at one of our many meetings or social outings!

Fall of 2017, the University of North Carolina at Charlotte's campus welcomed a new up and coming club to their roster!

In doing so, they are building confidence, appearance, and knowledge. The nationally recognized organization, Network of enlightened Women, branches off of traditional values and implementing them into today's society. While this organization focuses the majority of its time towards empowering women, it also has a large influence in politics. The UNC Charlotte NeW chapter is rapidly expanding and has big plans for the upcoming months! Through bi-weekly meetings and social events, this club is sure to make an impact on this campus!

Learn S'more About Us

By -
The start of a school year is always fun, exciting, and honestly a little intimidating. Each year, UNC Charlotte hosts a Fall Student Organizations Showcase after Freshman Convocation on the first Monday before classes start. It was a big day for the UNC Charlotte Chapter of Network of enlightened Women who is still semi-new to campus. Excited to start our *second* full year on campus, attending these events were critical to gain membership and a presence on campus! The day started out with tabling at the Showcase for NeW. The table was set up - pretty in pink - with flyers, social media handouts, and more literature about conferences. Raspberry lemonade was a great thank you to prospective members who jotted down their emails to keep up-to-date on NeW meetings and socials. After the Showcase, NeW held an interest meeting, “Learn S’more About Us!” in the Student Union on campus. With four dozen s’mores cupcakes from Delish Cakery and sign up sheets ready, the doors open...
