Consider the Issues Before Supporting UNC's Master Plan
By Julie McClintock | February 22The University of North Carolina is embarking on a gigantic growth plan.In 1997, UNC hired a consultant to develop a new Master Plan for central campus. Now that the bond funds are available, the UNC Board of Trustees wants to vote on the Master Plan next month before key issues have been worked out with the town and the surrounding community.
