vision that might be included in the
finalized budget stipulates that a stand
alone pharmacy school at Elizabeth City
State University be fully accredited and
staffed by the 2004-05 academic year.
Amy Fulk, press secretary for Sen.
President Pro Tem Marc Basnight, D-
Dare, said Senate officials asked the
BOG to begin a study last year evaluat
ing the need for an additional pharmacy
school in the system and the feasibility
of developing one.
“The BOG looked into two options
for the pharmacy school: a stand-alone
school, which would cost $7 million,
and a joint-school, which would cost $3
million,” Fulk said.
The BOG then recommended a
cooperative program with UNC-Chapel
Hill’s School of Pharmacy because of
North Carolina’s tight budget situation.
But the N.C. General Assembly con
tinued to pursue the issue after the N.C.
House reiterated the Senate’s request for
a stand-alone facility at Elizabeth City
State and added a request for a stand-
State
alone engineering school at East
Carolina University. The House also
called for engineering programs at
Western Carolina University and UNC-
Asheville.
Fulk said the House did not request
feasibility studies before making its addi
tional requests.
“The House Budget Committee saw
the proposal for the (Elizabeth City
State) pharmacy school and added addi
tional programs,” Fulk said.
BOG officials maintain their earlier
recommendations, which call for a joint
program with UNC-CH rather than a
stand-alone facility at Elizabeth City
State because of cost issues.
“Setting up additional stand-alone
pharmacy schools is important to the
BOG, but it’s not feasible at this time,”

said Teena Little, BOG vice chair
woman. “With a cooperative program,
the accreditation would already be
there.”
But Fulk said the stand-alone school
would create a needed job market in the
eastern part of the state.
The opportunities available in that
area are currendy dominated by stu
dents from UNC-CH’s pharmacy
school, she said.
Fulk said a joint school situation
would only further benefit UNC-CH.
“To have a state university system,
you can’t have everything in Chapel
Hill,” Fulk said. “Every campus should
have something special.”
UNC-CH Chancellor James Moeser
said he supported the BOG’s decision to
oppose the General Assembly’s

requests.
He said the establishment of such
programs would erode the quality and
purpose of UNC-CH as the system’s
flagship school.
“(The General Assembly’s decision
is) a manifestation of regional politics at
play,” Moeser said.
Little stressed that despite the dis
agreement between the General
Assembly and the BOG, the two bodies
are not completely at odds with each
other.
She said, “We hope to individually
and collectively talk to the legislature
and say, ‘While we want these pro
grams, it’s just not possible now’.”
