[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 996051, member: 2426"] Maybe I am just naive, but I don't take such things as far as conspiracy theories. A board of governors has a fiduciary responsibility to the entities they govern. In the case of the UNC System Board of Governors they are responsible for and to the public universities in North Carolina. Many people believe that all people in such positions of power were just born wealthy and spoiled, and that they care about nothing other than themselves. I don't think that full characterization would match many of them. There are some who do try to abuse their power and do crazy things. However, I think that most people in such positions take their responsibilities seriously. All of that to say that I am not certain that the policy was put in place for the express purpose of preventing UNC from leaving the ACC. It also has the effect of preventing ECU from making very quick decisions to move laterally in conferences. [USER=1199]@orientalnc[/USER] seems to think that it was already policy that the governors had to approve moves before they were made. My impression is that this policy "change" is being overblown because of the infatuation with anything that might/maybe have anything to do with conference realignment. It is good to know, but I don't think it is indicative or predictive of anything. [/QUOTE]
