NC Teachers Legacy Hall at UNCW
On August 18, 2003--when the Education Building was still under construction--UNCW leaders shared plans for the NC Teachers Legacy Hall with the media and public. At a news conference, Chancellor Rosemary DePaolo recognized three donors for their generous contributions. The donors were Grace Burton, Cooperative Bank, and Progress Energy.
Legacy Hall, housed in the atrium of the Education Building, honors P-12 education and teaching excellence in the state. It was planned as a museum of dedicated to the history of the teaching profession in North Carolina.
