About the Belk Center
Create. Convene. Catalyze. The Belk Center was created to support North Carolina’s 58 community colleges through practice-based research, leadership development and dynamic collaboration with national and state-level postsecondary stakeholders. Building upon the pioneering work of W. Dallas Herring and Ed Boone, we have strengthened our efforts to support all 58 colleges in the North Carolina Community College System by developing a national model and a pipeline of talented N.C. community college leaders – ultimately strengthening North Carolina’s economic vitality.
In recent years, like many other states across the country, North Carolina has been challenged with a leadership shortage in the community college system. But, thanks to generous funding from the John M. Belk Endowment, the Belk Center for Community College Leadership and Research will continue to serve North Carolina’s community colleges by creating tools, convening leaders, and catalyzing social and economic mobility for learners – creating stronger, more resilient communities.
