North Carolina Skip to Recent Events Historical Background In 1987, the North Carolina Supreme Court , in Britt v. North Carolina State Board of Education , 361 S.E.2d 71, denied review of an appellate court decision dismissing plaintiffs' case, which had claimed that the state's education finance system violated the state constitution because it caused disparities in school programs and facilities. Ten years later, however, the state's supreme court distinguished the Britt "equity" decision, in Leandro v. State 488 S.E.2d 249 (1997), and remanded plaintiffs' "adequacy" claims for trial. The court declared that the right to education in the state constitution "requires that all children have the opportunity for a sound basic education," echoing the same constitutional standard articulated by New York's highest court in CFE v. State in 1995. Trial Court Decisions The Leandro trial court decided to hear rural plaintiffs (Hoke County) and urban plaintiffs separately and began with the Hoke County plaintiffs.

HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA In North Carolina, all the public educational institutions that grant baccalaureate degrees are part of the University of North Carolina. The University of North Carolina at Wilmington is one of the 16 constituent institutions of the multi-campus state university. The University of North Carolina, chartered by the N.C. General Assembly in 1789, was the first public university in the United States to open its doors and the only one to graduate students in the eighteenth century. The first class was admitted in Chapel Hill in 1795. For the next 136 years, the only campus of the University of North Carolina was at Chapel Hill. In 1877, the N.C. General Assembly began sponsoring additional institutions of higher education, diverse in origin and purpose. Five were historically black institutions, and another was founded to educate American Indians. Several were created to prepare teachers for the public schools. Others had a technological emphasis. One is a training school for performing artists. In 1931, the N.C. General Assembly redefined the University of North Carolina to include three state-supported institutions: the campus at Chapel Hill (now the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill), North Carolina State College (now North Carolina State University at Raleigh), and Woman's College (now the University of North Carolina at Greensboro). The new multi-campus university operated with one board of trustees and one president. By 1969, three additional campuses had joined the university through legislative action: the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and the University of North Carolina at Wilmington.
