The Code

The Code of the Board of Governors is the official governing document of the UNC Board of Governors.

Section 18 of Chapter 1244 of the 1971 Session Laws for the state of North Carolina directed the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina to adopt, for itself and all constituent institutions, a code based upon the code of the University of North Carolina as it may exist prior to July 1, 1972, but modified in such ways as to the Board of Governors may deem desirable in order to take into account the practices and needs of all the constituent institutions.

The Code is part of the larger Policy Manual of the University of North Carolina.
