North Carolina to Maintain One Tax-Backed University

RALEIGH AP The State Board of Higher Education backed a commission's view that the state can afford and adequately support only one tax supported university. The board supported consolidation of the UNC system and the idea of a statutory definition for a threefold university, with research as the primary function and the doctor’s degree limited to the consolidated system. It also noted opposition to renaming State College as the University of North Carolina at Raleigh. Elsewhere, East Carolina College won tentative approval to open a two year center at Seymour Johnson AFB for military and civilian students pending accreditation.
