DURHAM, N.C. – President Richard H. Brodhead toured the Nicholas School and met with Dean William L. Chameides and three faculty members today.

“With plans for Nicholas Hall moving forward, external research funding on the rise, and faculty and student quality at an all-time high, it’s an exciting time at the Nicholas School. We appreciate that President Brodhead made time in his busy schedule to visit the school and sit down with us to learn more about what we’re accomplishing,” Chameides said. “Having university leaders who are involved and interested in the school’s progress is a true asset.”
