The reasons why the Uni/Ivy become the target of a wardec are normally just due to the fact that we're a large corporation that can often be seen as an easy target.  Rarely are wardecs made against the Uni for specific reasons or diplomatic incidences.

Whether you are new or an experienced pilot, the University finds its ''strength in numbers''. All University members, especially new, are highly encouraged to participate in wartime activities as the [[tackling]] or [[EWAR]] roles require only hours of training to fulfill and provide valuable support to the fleet.  Even if PvP is not your primary game style you will learn a great deal and have some fun.

You can enjoy doing a lot of your favourite PvE activities in wartime especially when you exercise some basic routine precautions.  You can also avoid the effects of wartime given your choice of where you decide to operate.  Preparation and knowledge is the key.

For new players, this is the least skill intensive and easiest role to fulfill. The role of a tackler is to immobilize an enemy and prevent them from escaping. Interceptors also fall into the role of tacklers, as their main job is to track and lock down targets quickly.
