Construction projects engross system schools
By India Autry | August 30UNC-Chapel Hill isn’t the only campus in the state with bulldozers and piles of dirt gracing its quads. Most UNC-system schools have reached their peak in construction projects funded by the 2000 bond referendum, said Jeff Davies, UNC-system vice president for finance. “There’s more construction in progress right now than there ever has been before,” Davies said. The state’s bond money paid for 316 projects, and work has been completed for only 116 of them, he said. The other 200 are under construction.
