Amid the upheaval of civil war in Congo, Pulitzer Prize-winning "Ruined" follows the formidable Mama Nadi, whose bar becomes a haven for women marked by violence, loss and survival. She must skillfully navigate violent power struggles while protecting those who rely on her courage and cunning.

A night of spontaneity, groove and creative risk unfolds as the UNCSA Improvised Music and Jazz Studio presents a smooth showcase of sound. Student performers explore a wide range of jazz and improvised traditions, from structured charts to fully open-ended creation - highlighting individual voice, ensemble listening and real-time musical decision-making.
UNCSA is committed to ensuring that qualified students are provided access to all programs and services of the university. Any student who feels that he or she had been the subject of discrimination based on their disability, or feels the accommodations and services provided are inappropriate, should seek resolution. UNCSA has adopted internal procedures providing prompt and equitable resolution to disability complaints. Informal resolution with Disability Resources is encouraged and should be attempted prior to formal filing of a grievance.
The Disability Appeals Committee shall consist of 3 members:
The Committee shall review the entire case, including written documentation, and may conduct interviews. The Committee should issue its recommendations in writing to the Chief Academic Officer within 21 days after receipt of complaint. The Committee may request up to a five-day extension of time, if necessary, by sending written notice to the student and to the Chief Academic Officer.
The recommendations of the Committee will explain the facts and offer options for substantive resolution of the complaint. The Chief Academic Officer’s action will be limited to a review of the basis for the Disability Appeals Committee’s decision and need not involve a de novo factual investigation.
The Chief Academic Officer may, but is not required to, direct that further facts be gathered or that additional remedial action be taken. Within 15 calendar days of receipt of the request for review, the Chief Academic Officer shall submit a decision in writing to the student and to the person alleged to have caused the grievance.
The written disposition shall include the reasons for the decision, and it shall direct a remedy for the aggrieved student, if any. The Chief Academic Officer’s decision on the matter shall be final.
