  • Mccorkle PLACE
    CHAPTER EIGHT: McCORKLE PLACE McCorkle Place is said to be the most densely memorialized piece of real estate in North Carolina.501 On the University’s symbolic front lawn, there are almost a dozen monuments and memorials fundamental to the University’s lore and traditions, but only two monuments within the space have determined the role of McCorkle Place as a space for racial justice movements.502 The Unsung Founders Memorial and the University’s Confederate Monument were erected on the oldest quad of the campus almost a century apart for dramatically different memorial purposes. The former honors the enslaved and freed Black persons who “helped build” the University, while the latter commemorated, until its toppling in August 2018, “the sons of the University who entered the war of 1861-65.”503 Separated by only a few dozen yards, the physical distinctions between the two monuments were, before the Confederate Monument was toppled, quite striking.

Our mission is to train students fully and deeply on all aspects of running a news organization and to serve the UNC community with news and information that they need. To achieve this mission, we as an organization have established four overarching goals that serve as the basis of DTH Media Co.’s strategic plans for the year, which include: becoming an indispensable, trusted guide to UNC and life for students; growing consumer and institutional revenue, diversifying and strengthening our business-to-business revenue; and shifting to audience-centric practices across the organization. Our strategic plans for the year fell under the overall progression toward these goals, and in turn, our mission. Some of those strategic plans included: increasing return visits and pages per visit by the 18 to 24 year-old demographic; increasing overall fundraising revenue, applying for grants and hiring a fundraising and donor engagement specialist to assist with these efforts; moving into a consultative selling model within our 1893 Brand Studio and advertising departments; and developing diverse news products beyond solely print news. These plans were created to ensure the progression of a sustainable news organization that can both serve the UNC community and teach students how to produce news in ways that remain both relevant and helpful to the consumer.

    March 16, 2020 Dear Partnership Advisory Group, New Hanover County Board of Commissioners, and New Hanover Regional Medical Center Board of Trustees: Thank you for the opportunity to respond to your request for proposal for a strategic partnership with New Hanover Regional Medical Center (NHRMC). We have long admired the quality care NHRMC provides for the citizens of southeastern North Carolina and your reputation for excellence. The partnerships UNC Health and NHRMC have fostered over many years have been productive for both of our systems and allowed each of us to further serve our missions. We have enjoyed learning in more detail about your organization through this RFP process. NHRMC’s co-workers, leaders, physicians and your community should be very proud of your health care system. To better understand NHRMC’s goals, we have attended your Partnership Advisory Group meetings and reviewed the materials provided to all respondents. After many discussions among our system leaders and our Board of Directors, we believe we understand NHRMC’s current situation and your desire to ensure your continued success for future generations. We would like to share our vision of how UNC Health could serve as a long-term partner. Our proposal reflects what we believe to be the best approach to meet the needs of NHRMC, your patients and your community.
