Abstract:
What a Greenville business executive could contribute more to the UNC system’s Board of Governors and the UNC System’s 17 universities is his value of efficiency. How he has displayed efficiency is through supporting the consolidation of state controlled ECU Physicians Group and Vidant Medical Group. How he can display efficiency is through the passage of two initiatives. One is moving consolidating the UNC system’s offices into one building. Another is the UNC system handling the financial parts of all system campuses instead of each campus operating independently. It is through such initiatives that Harry Smith’s hope of better controlling UNC system tuition and fees may be realized.

Abstract:
North Carolina’s Republicans are in control of state politics but are struggling over the correct path to take. Grassroots conservatives, often motivated by moral or religious concerns, have put pressure on Republicans after their support helped them achieve many victories. Also a problem is the class barrier within the North Carolina Republican Party. This has caused pressure as the old guard or “country-club Republicans” are being forced to pay attention to the religious right, “Wal-Mart Republicans,” and grassroots Republicans.
