An article from The News & Observer (Raleigh, NC)

[Joseph N. Hall]

So, I've never piped up on this.

It's a nice freebie, but I don't think it's necessary. I do think that
students from NCSSM should get free tuition to into the UNC system if
they need it in any way, and they shouldn't have to jump through hoops
to get it. But I agree that the blanket grant has a funny smell to it,
and on its face it is unfair to bright students elsewhere in the state
who aren't attending NCSSM.
