A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR PROGRAMS THAT MAY BE ESTABLISHED BY THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AND TO PROVIDE THAT ONE OF THOSE PROGRAMS SHALL BE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT PEMBROKE.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  G.S. 116-74.21(b) reads as rewritten:
"(b)	No more than 10 school administrator programs shall be established under the competitive proposal program.  In selecting campus sites, the Board of Governors shall be sensitive to the racial, cultural, and geographic diversity of the State.  Special priority shall be given to the following factors: (i) the historical background of the institutions in training educators; (ii) the ability of the sites to serve the geographic regions of the State, such as, the far west, the west, the triad, the piedmont, and the east; and, (iii) whether the type of roads and terrain in a region make commuting difficult.  A school administrator program may provide for instruction at one or more campus sites."
Section 2.  The Board of Governors of The University of North Carolina shall include the Master of School Administration program at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke as one of the 10 school administrator programs established pursuant to G.S. 116-74.21.  
Section 3.  This act is effective when it becomes law.
