Charlotte College Resolution
President Friday read the following resolution received from the Board of Trustees of Charlotte College:
"The Trustees of Charlotte College wish to formally endorse and reaffirm the request of the Board of Trustees of the Charlotte Community College System that Charlotte College become a campus of the University of North Carolina.
"THEREFORE, the Trustees of Charlotte College hereby request that the Trustees of the University of North Carolina approve Charlotte College as the fourth campus of the University and recommend to the General Assembly of North Carolina that adequate financing be made available for this purpose.
"Local Support
"For seventeen years the citizens of Charlotte, Mecklenburg County and ten surrounding counties have given time, money and encouragement to the development of Charlotte College. In particular, the citizens of Charlotte and Mecklenburg went to the polls four times to vote upon themselves taxes to support the institution. Thus of the $3 million value placed upon the campus when Charlotte College became a four-year, state-supported institution in July, 1963, the citizens of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County had contributed more than $2 million and the state $1 million. Since then, the Mecklenburg County Commissioners gave 520 acres of land to the State of North Carolina for the use of Charlotte College. Individual citizens and corporations of the area continue to give financial support to the College through gifts to the Charlotte College Foundation.
"Need
"For many years Charlotte was accurately described as 'under- colleged'. However, the 1963 General Assembly recognized and fulfilled the need for a four-year, state-supported college in the Charlotte area. This development, though welcome, was too little and too late. The Charlotte area needs an institution of University scope, an institution of equal quality and prestige with the three present campuses of the University of North Carolina.
"The needs all but speak for themselves. Nearly a quarter of all the State's high school graduates live in the Charlotte College commuting area. Dr. C. Horace Hamilton of North Carolina State has predicted an enrollment of over 10,000 students in Charlotte by 1970, if appropriate facilities are available. Many students in this highly urbanized area come from families of modest means who cannot afford to send them away to boarding institutions. The only way to provide them with a university education is to bring the university to them.
"And why, after all, should Charlotte have a University? Why not just a high-quality senior college?
"This urbanized, industrialized area depends to a larger extent on a more highly educated and highly skilled manpower pool than do many sections of the State. In today's rapidly advancing technology, this manpower pool needs ready access to a university so that individuals may be kept abreast of the latest developments in their fields. Graduate training is needed in the arts, sciences, business administration, teacher education, and engineering.
"The 1963 Higher Education Act provides that the highest level of graduate work is not available except through the University.
"Since the educational needs of the Charlotte area are becoming more complex, more scientific and more professional, the citizens of the area must look to the University of North Carolina.
