Campaign for Carolina reaches $4.25B goal
CHAPEL HILL (January 13, 2022) – The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill announced Thursday that it had met an ambitious, if not audacious, goal to raise $4.25 billion for the university a year early.

The news was soon followed by an announcement from NC State University that it, too, had met its fundraising goal of $2.1 billion through its five-year Think and Do the Extraordinary Campaign.

Launched in October 2017, the Campaign for Carolina aimed to raise $4.25 billion by the end of 2022. Reaching the goal makes Carolina the eighth public university to surpass $4 billion in a single campaign, and the only university in South to surpass $4.25 billion.

BASTARDS!

Yep.

They sure do know how to do NOT MUCH with a whole lot. What kind of lifestyle do you get by attending Chappel Hill? Clemson and AppState are two of the prettiest campuses I have ever visited and Chapel Hill and NCState are two of the worst. Duke not far behind. The best part of those schools is being p5.

App making it happen with less.

Wheelz for Heelz was also a success, probably still is

So they beat our largest ever campaign by a little more than 4 BILLION.....

Pass the hat.

It would be interesting to see (A list) where the money comes from. My guess, companies that make money from the research feel obligated to give so they are included in the next government give away. I don't know how App/we get our beaks wet from the research money but it should be a goal. It is what NCSTATE and Chapel Hill are trying to keep us from. The partnership with Wake would have been huge for us. Our push for environmental type research and programs are a great start. This next generation is going to put money into it.

I'd like to propose a convoluted and hair brained heist. Who's with me?

Also, F UNC. 30 years of systematic academic fraud.

A few things I have found after reading up on this stuff on various unc web pages. (Not going to link all the different ones).


-----------Up to date section
Around 1 Billion is tied up in deferred giving aka you can have my money when I die or other time tables. So a big chunk of this is not something they immediately get to spend on research being conducted in foreign countries on dangerous viruses. Instead they can get it almost like yearly payments so they can afford to pay for more African American studies professors to take care of their academics.

As of Jan. 1, 2022, more than 200,000 donors, including more than 90,000 first-time donors, have made almost 641,000 gifts to the Campaign for Carolina.

While 649 of these gifts were for $1 million or more, 83% of the gifts to the campaign have been $1,000 or less.

Almost 3,400 students have contributed to the campaign, totaling more than half a million dollars.

More than 88,000 alums and 10,000 faculty and staff have given to this campaign.

Donors from all 100 North Carolina counties and all 50 states have made gifts to the campaign.

These gifts are available immediately to grow the endowment or be put to work on campus, making an impact right away to further Carolina’s mission of teaching, research and public service.

Fred Eshelman ’72, who previously donated $38 million to the UNC pharmacy school that now bears his name, on Wednesday pledged $100 million more to the school — the largest gift from an individual ever to Carolina and, the University says, the largest ever to a pharmacy school in the U.S.

Eshelman is founder and former CEO of Pharmaceutical Product Development and founding chair of Furiex Pharmaceuticals. The school that granted his degree was named the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy in 2008.

I'll look a little bit more later because I could never find a list of public donors even though I read on the UNC campaign website that one exists and is often published in their newsletters.

If more of you guys believed in socialism UNC would have to share that with us….

It’s ok Rek. Threads like this always help expose the closet Heel fans.

UNC is guilty of 30 years of systematic academic fraud.
