Board of Governor meeting material portrayed UNC
Greensboro Request for Millennial Campus
Designation May 18, 2017 for two parcels of
land on the university master plan as expansion to non-existing
UNC Greensboro Northside (School of the Deaf
property) Millennial Campus, on the Southside
Millennial Campus NC A&T on Chancellor Harold
Martin watch. The
expansion of the Millennial Campus would not
alter the level of oversight required by the
Board of Governors for UNCG property
transactions. Assessment indicated
the Millennial Campus concept has been widely
and successfully used by NCSU, UNC-CH,
NCA&T/UNCG, ASU, ECU, UNCC, UNCW, and WCU.
Assessment did not indicate any previous Board
of Governor designated UNC Greensboro
Millennial Campus. Clearly
alleged Joint NCA&T/UNCG millennial campus is
the "millennial Campus referred to expanding.

of the MSDA states, "The
Universities shall lease to GCID
any or all property designated

In order to

The lease document is based on a
model previously used by several
UNC campuses, including UNCG and
NCA&T.
This document has also been
reviewed by the Office of the

| The 2000 session of the General
Assembly authorized the Board of Governors to designate
a Millennial Campus at each constituent institution when
the Board finds that such a designation will enhance the
institution's research, teaching, and service missions,
as well as enhance the economic development of the
region served by the institution. The legislation
states that the Board should act on the recommendation
of the President after the President has consulted with
the Chancellor and the Board of Trustees. The
designation shall be based on the finding that the
institution has the administrative and fiscal capacity
to create and maintain such a campus. Each Millennial
Campus would function in a manner similar to the
Centennial Campus at North Carolina State University and
each would be exempt from the provisions of the Umstead
Act. Note:
legislation
NCGS § 116-198.34.
plain language
does not
state the Board should act
on the recommendation of the President after the
President has consulted with the Chancellor and the
Board of Trustees. |
 |
| The President has completed the
required consultations and recommends that the Board
approve the request for the University of North Carolina
at Greensboro to be granted Millennial Campus status.
The campus has the administrative and fiscal capacity
that is required and the activities to be performed on
the Millennial Campus would advance regional economic
development. |
