closeCHAPEL HILL -- The dean of the UNC School of Law announced Friday the school is getting a new home on the future Carolina North campus planned for two miles north of the main campus.
"After thoughtful input from many quarters ... and after consideration of many alternative factors -- architectural, pedagogical, financial, construction time, among others -- I have decided to accept the University's generous offer to build a brand-new, 21st century home for the School of Law," Jack Boger said in an e-mail message.
"While we will eventually move away from a facility and a location that have long been home to many, the new building we will construct at Carolina North will allow a great new flowering of the energies and the talents of our students and faculty," the dean wrote. "In the coming weeks and months, I look forward to working with each of you to achieve the very highest potential of this important move."
