http://www2.lib.unc.edu/mss/uars/ead/40001.html

The Board of Trustees, elected by the North Carolina General Assembly, was the governing body of the University of North Carolina from its chartering in 1789 until 1932, when the Consolidated University of North Carolina system was created. Records include minutes of the Board of Trustees, 1789-1932, and of its Executive Committee, 1835-1932, on five reels of microfilm; files of the Secretary of the Board, 1922-1932; and files of the Building Committee, 1921-1929. Topics of particular importance in the minutes of the Board of Trustees and its Executive Committee include siting of the University and acquisition of land, construction of buildings (including funding), curriculum planning, and student discipline. The Secretary's files on the committees of the Board of Trustees contain only background materials for reports made by the committees to the full Board or its Executive Committee. Building Committee materials include correspondence, minutes, reports, and other materials.
