Students attending the University of North Carolina were evaluated through pre-admission and post-graduation testing to determine performance. All fifteen campuses in the UNC system participated in this study. Emphasis was placed on comparing achievement on the five campuses with predominately all black students against the other ten campuses attended by primarily white students.

Abstract:
How the UNC system passes the test is seemingly simple: graduate more students from rural parts of North Carolina and low income households; graduate more students within five years. What makes the test not so simple to pass is issues not so easily measured in rates or statistics. Those highlighted included the pressure on unprepared students to attend a university; post high school alternatives under-promoted because of the attention placed on university attendance.
