Re: RIP Chancellor Borkowski
He was chancellor when I was in grad school.
Only had a couple of brief conversations with him at a couple of business school related events he attended. He was extremely cordial in our discussions.

Re: RIP Chancellor Borkowski
As I told my old college roommate, Bork would appreciate me giving this a thumbs up (if you were in school during his tenure, you understand)
Give 'em hell!

Re: RIP Chancellor Borkowski
I was also in school during his tenure. Didn't know him well, but from my few interactions, he was always kind and had time to talk with students.

Re: RIP Chancellor Borkowski
He was there for my 5.5 years of undergrad, don't think I ever talked to him.

Re: RIP Chancellor Borkowski
He was thoughtful, kind and gracious in my dealings with him. We sometimes saw things differently but we always parted on good terms.

Re: RIP Chancellor Borkowski
Borkowski is largely responsible for securing funding that led to many of the new buildings on the App campus. He built close relationships with Marc Basnight (long time President pro tem of the NC Senate) and other legislators that played a key role in making this happen.
