Abstract:
Educational opportunities are on the rise in Charlotte's metropolitan area. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte is building a $30 million uptown classroom building that will swell enrollment from the present 650 students to 7,500. Wake Forest is moving its Charlotte MBA program from South Park to an uptown, 30,000-square-foot building in 2008. Johnson & Wales, which opened in 2004, expects enrollment to reach 5,000 in 2008.
