Duke University 2011-2012 School of Nursing the Mission of Duke University James B bulletin of Duke University 2011-2012 School of Nursing The Mission of Duke University James B. Duke’s founding Indenture of Duke University directed the members of the University to “provide real leadership in the educational world” by choosing individuals of “outstanding character, ability and vision” to serve as its officers, trustees and faculty; by carefully selecting students of “character, determination and application;” and by pursuing those areas of teaching and scholarship that would “most help to develop our resources, increase our wisdom, and promote human happiness.” To these ends, the mission of Duke University is to provide a superior liberal education to undergraduate students, attending not only to their intellectual growth but also to their development as adults committed to high ethical standards and full participation as leaders in their communities; to prepare future members of the learned professions for lives of skilled and ethical service by providing excellent graduate and professional education; to advance the frontiers of knowledge and contribute boldly to the international community of scholarship; to promote an intellectual environment built on a commitment to free and open inquiry; to help those who suffer, cure disease and promote health, through sophisticated medical research and thoughtful patient care; to provide wide ranging educational opportunities, on and beyond our campuses, for traditional students, active professionals and life-long learners using the power of information technologies; and to promote a deep appreciation for the range of human difference and potential, a sense of the obligations and rewards of citizenship, and a commitment to learning, freedom and truth. By pursuing these objectives with vision and integrity, Duke University seeks to engage the mind, elevate the spirit, and stimulate the best effort of all who are associated with the University; to contribute in diverse ways to the local community, the state, the nation and the world; and to attain and maintain a place of real leadership in all that we do.

  • XIII. Supplemental Information (PDF)
    Annual Budget Process The City of Durham’s annual budget process is the framework for communicating major financial operational objectives and for allocating resources to achieve them. This process is a complex undertaking involving the whole government. The process begins in October and runs until the end of June. By state law, the City must adopt an annual budget ordinance by June 30 of each year. Coordination of the process is essential to the building of the budget. To achieve coordination, a calendar of activities is summarized on this page. Once the budget is approved, the focus of the budget becomes control. Ongoing monitoring of expenditures and revenues throughout the year is a responsibility shared by department heads and the Budget Department. The Accounting Services Division ensures that changes are correctly entered and payments are appropriate. The Budget and Management Services Department reviews all requests from departments to make sure that sufficient appropriations have been budgeted. All funds are reviewed on a regular basis, and a budget report is submitted to the City Council on a quarterly basis. The City Manager has the authority to transfer budgeted amounts between departments within any function. However, transfers between functions, additions or deletions require a budget amendment. To amend the budget, a revised budget ordinance must be approved by the City Council. January February March Department budgets submitted Coffees with Council continue. Budget kick-off.

  • University of North Carolina Hospitals at Chapel Hill
    Comments on the Duke Coley Hall Imaging Independent Diagnostic Testing Facility Certificate of Need Application, Project ID # J-12001-20 December 31, 2020 In accordance with N.C. GEN. STAT. § 131E-185(a1)(1), University of North Carolina Hospitals at Chapel Hill (“UNC Hospitals” or “UNC Health”) submits the following comments related to Duke University Health System, Inc.’s (“Duke’s”) application to develop a diagnostic center with mammography and ultrasound equipment to be operated as an independent diagnostic testing facility (“IDTF”) in Orange County. UNC Health’s comments on this application include “discussion and argument regarding whether, in light of the material contained in the application and other relevant factual material, the application complies with the relevant review criteria, plans and standards.” See N.C. GEN. STAT. § 131E-185(a1)(1)(c). To facilitate the Agency’s review of these comments, UNC Health has organized its discussion by issue, noting the Certificate of Need statutory review criteria creating the non-conformity on the application. General Comments While the specific issues with the application are identified in the sections to follow, UNC Health notes that the responses in the application fall far short of providing the minimum amount of information needed to demonstrate conformity with the applicable review criteria. The application includes multiple inconsistencies, lacks supporting analysis and assumptions, and provides insufficient documentation of the need for the proposed project, among other issues described below. Duke cannot simply remedy these problems through a response to these comments or otherwise since the information is not in the application and an applicant may not amend its application.
