UNC Professors Seek Memorial to Honor Late Sen. Wellstone
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.
A professor and a dean at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are seeking a memorial on campus to the late Sen. Paul Wellstone, a two-time Carolina alumnus who died in a plane crash Oct. 25.
Dr. Joel Schwartz, an adjunct professor of public policy and professor emeritus of political science, and Gene Nichol, dean of Carolina’s School of Law, hope to raise $25,000 for a group of three to five benches to be placed on the campus.
