What to watch at UNC and NC State boards of trustees meetings this week

Hello reader! Welcome to Higher Stakes , your source for North Carolina’s higher education news. I’m reporter Jane Winik Sartwell . It’s going to be a big week. Both the UNC-Chapel Hill and NC State trustees are meeting. The fallout from the disturbing Sigma Nu hazing investigation continues to unfold. St. Augustine’s , the historically Black university in Raleigh, faces a deadline to explain how it plans to exit bankruptcy. I’ll be focused all week on bringing you the latest on these stories. Stay tuned. For now, here’s a preview of what to expect at those trustees meetings. What to expect from UNC’s trustees Protocol for campus-wide centers and institutes could be changing. A proposed policy could expand the provost’s control over the launch of new centers, who sits on committees that handle their periodical reviews, and their discontinuation or reclassification. Earlier this year, the abrupt closure and consolidation of six centers focused on international studies brought this issue to the fore. Academic program review could now consider cost.

NC charter school has been delayed yet again. When it now plans to open in Chatham.

A new charter school focused on helping students learn job skills is now scheduled to open in Chatham County in 2029 — five years after it was first approved. The N.C. Charter Schools Review Board voted 7-2 on Monday to approve Granite Charter Academy’s request to delay its opening until fall 2029 . School leaders said the delay will give them time to construct a campus in Pittsboro that would eventually allow them to serve 1,500 K-12 students. “Seeing the development in the area, I’m sure Chatham County is excited to have a school that they’re not running a bond package on,” said Lindalyn Kakadelis, a member of the Review Board. But some Review Board members raised concerns about allowing such a long delay. Granite was originally approved by the Review Board in 2024 with a scheduled opening this school year. Staff in the Office of Charter Schools previously had approved Granite’s request to delay opening until 2027. On Monday, the school sought an additional two-year delay. “I do believe it’s a great endeavor and very purposeful and needed, but we’d be approving an application that’s five years removed from all the original intent,” said Review Board member Rita Haire,
