Folt Lays out Bold Vision for Carolina's Future @UNIVGAZETTE GAZETTE.UNC.EDU VOL. 42, NO. 9 CAROLINA FACULTY AND STAFF NEWS MAY 3, 2017 Anson Dorrance shares thoughts on character in his Last Lecture Women’s soccer Coach Anson Dorrance performs the same ritual before each national championship game his team plays (a whopping 24, with 22 of those victories). It doesn’t have anything to do with super- stition. It’s all about appreciation. “I spend the entire day and half the night before the national championship game writing a note to every senior on my roster, thanking each of them for the incredible human contribution they’ve made to my team,” Dorrance told the seniors attending the Last Lecture on April 20. The next morning, Dorrance delivers the letters, often “bleary eyed and honestly half asleep.” JON GARDINER “Rest assured the letters are more powerful and Chancellor Carol L.

    Patent and Invention Policy The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Effective as of January 1, 2009 Updated April 22, 2013 Patent & Invention Policy I. Preamble The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is dedicated to education, research, and public service, including economic development in North Carolina. Inventions and discoveries sometimes arise in the course of research conducted by University faculty, students, and staff. The Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina has determined that patenting and commercialization of these inventions and discoveries is consistent with the mission of the University. Service to the public is an integral part of the University's mission. Where possible, the University should enable inventions and discoveries resulting from its research to reach the public in a manner that will maximize their impact on society and, at the same time, provide adequate recognition and reward to inventors. This policy has been established to ensure that those inventions and discoveries in which the University has an interest will be utilized in a manner consistent with the public good through patent protection or other mechanisms as appropriate. In addition, the University is obligated under the Bayh-Dole Act and other statutes to be responsible stewards of inventions resulting from research funded with public money. The provisions of this policy are subject to any applicable laws, regulations or specific provisions of the grants or contracts which govern the rights in inventions or discoveries made in connection with sponsored research. Under the terms of certain contracts and agreements between the University and various agencies of government, private and public corporations and private interests, the University is or may be required to assign or license all rights to inventions or discoveries that arise in the course of work conducted under such agreements to the contracting party.

  • The North Carolina Botanical Garden at 50
    A Conservation Garden: The North Carolina Botanical Garden at 50 (1966-2016) Volume I Researched, compiled, and written by the North Carolina Botanical Garden Greenbriers February 2019 To the visionaries who came before us, the pragmatists who carried the vision forward, and the allies yet to come; and to past, present, and future seekers who find inspiration, encouragement, and solace at the North Carolina Botanical Garden. FOREWORD One would be hard pressed to walk into any botanical garden in the world and come across a compendium of historical information as complete as this one. What is even more amazing is that this compilation of the Garden’s 50-year history was authored by volunteers! Calling themselves the Greenbriers, this dedicated group of 12, under the able leadership of Joanne Lott, has spent countless hours researching, fact checking, and writing the definitive guide to the first 50 years of the North Carolina Botanical Garden. As you peruse Volume I from the Introduction to the Reference Timeline, perhaps even delve into the Volume II appendices, you will quickly come to the realization that this history goes much deeper than the last 50 years. Indeed, the story of the North Carolina Botanical Garden is the botanical legacy of the University of North Carolina, the nation’s oldest public university. Like the entangling Greenbrier vine, the two have been intertwined and inseparable since 1903 when the University’s first professor of botany, William Chambers Coker, established a teaching collection of trees and shrubs on campus which later became the Coker Arboretum. The Garden has many other branches that can trace their origin to the Coker legacy, including Battle Park, the UNC Herbarium, the Coker Pinetum, and The Rocks at the Coker/Burns estate.
