Direction Of Higher Education Calls More For Coordination
Resentments over authority between the State Board of Higher Education and UNC trustees surfaced at a preparatory meeting for Dr Gordon Williams Blackwell's installation at Woman's College. A Pearsall committee is assessing if the conflict is a solvable admin issue or requires legal change, with the next General Assembly likely to address it. The board aims to coordinate the state’s higher education system, citing debt and dormitory unit cuts as proof, while trustees fear loss of university autonomy.
