UNC Tomorrow asking questions


The UNC Tomorrow Commission wants to hear from you.

The panel will hold a community listening forum Oct. 10 at 4 p.m. at the McKimmon Center at N.C. State University.

The commission was established by UNC President Erskine Bowles and the UNC Board of Governors to come up with ideas for how the university system can serve the future needs of North Carolina, Jane Stancill reports.

The commission is asking the following questions:

* What are the most important challenges facing your community and how can universities help?

* What programs and services should the universities offer and how can the universities better serve you?

* What knowledge and skills do our students need to be prepared for the jobs of tomorrow?

* How can the universities help improve economic opportunities in your area?
