Elon Charlotte

Department leaders invited to the side-by-side conversations with members of the Sprint Team working on details of a proposed merger between Elon and Queens are encouraged to bring forward ideas and reflections around key questions.

Guests toured the Elon Charlotte South End campus and learned about the undergraduate and graduate academic programs offered in the space.

Listening sessions, town halls and a feedback form have generated hundreds of comments and ideas that inspire the administrators creating a formal agreement to unify resources and expand student learning opportunities at both institutions. 

Common themes emerged from families on both campuses who attended sessions for those seeking to learn more about the universities' strategic and student-centered intent to merge.

Guided by Elon University Senior Vice President Jim Piatt and Queens University President Emerita Pamela Davies, key administrators from both universities will convene weekly in October to identify options that build community, support students, and honor the histories of both campuses in the lead-up to an official merger.

On Oct. 9, Elon Charlotte will host an open house at the South End campus.

Eight summer Study USA Charlotte students were awarded funds for the Elon University Queen City Internship Grant.
