The thread about UNC-CH and its governance was taken down. I never read any of the thread after the first post or two so I am not sure if it touched a nerve and someone wanted to censor it or the thread went off on a wild ride and grew to be a be much with opinions.
Anywhoooo, I just read about this, which touches on some important issues.

Re: UNC Governance
Interesting; no wonder I hate the UNC BOG so much! The make up doesn’t reflect North Carolina.

Re: UNC Governance
Long story short, the article suggest that the standard of those on the governance of N.C. public universities should no longer based on one's merit. The standard now needs to be based on one's race, sex, and political affiliation.
... seems logical.

Re: UNC Governance
Do you think the current members are there based on merit?

Re: UNC Governance
Should start with the UNC Board of Governors. Less UNC and more everyone else....

Re: UNC Governance
Interesting.Based on the information in the article , if accurate , the Boards are much more diverse now than they have historcally been.

Re: UNC Governance
We do have an App alum on the board. He and I shared an apartment in the early-mid 80s (Mountaineer Apts). Have not talked to him since he graduated in 1985. His term ends this year.Longrifle28 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 10, 2023 3:45 pmShould start with the UNC Board of Governors. Less UNC and more everyone else....
