Since the current NC Legislative Branch refuses to invest in public education, it appears that letting private business in as stakeholder owners of the university is the only option for growth.McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 9:54 amhttps://www.wataugademocrat.com/news/ap ... 6a955.html
Another way to look at public / private endeavors is to see them as freeing up scarce state funds for other uses including things like expansion of Medicaid and educational funding. It's a relatively easy way to get private entities to fund state projects without having to raise tax rates. These also allow the universities to retain a portion of the revenue generated from the operations of completed projects.HighlandsApp wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 1:36 pmSince the current NC Legislative Branch refuses to invest in public education, it appears that letting private business in as stakeholder owners of the university is the only option for growth.McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 9:54 amhttps://www.wataugademocrat.com/news/ap ... 6a955.html
Yes, Daphne I agree.

I believe and economists support that NC can support all of the needed investment if we choose to do so.
Kinda. It puts the schools on the hook for the funding and not the state at the end of the day. It also removes the accountability to the state residents that a pubic university should haveDaphneUrquhart wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 2:30 pmAnother way to look at public / private endeavors is to see them as freeing up scarce state funds for other uses including things like expansion of Medicaid and educational funding.

I don’t have an answer about UNC, but NC State’s Centennial Campus has P3 designation. If I recall correctly, it was the 1st of its kind in North Carolina and has been a big success for them. Everytime I cut through there new buildings are going up.
