Belk College of Business

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This college of business at UNC at Charlotte is currently 1) is unreferenced, 2) reads like a big old promotion for prospective students and 3) Fails WP:GNG. The only coverage I could find was that the Charlotte Business Journal had a networking event there (but this is not really independent) and that they offered a graduate program in real estate.  These articles provide minimal coverage.  Furthermore, the college does not inherit notability from the university.  I, Jethrobot  drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 05:05, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't have a position as to what exactly should be done about this article yet, but at worst it should be redirected to University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I may look into this further and recommend keeping, but I'm not ready to decide that yet. Also, the "only coverage" that the nom found apparently refers only to Google News' coverage of the school from the last month. There are more articles in the Google News Archive. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:56, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
 * And just to be fair, many of these articles in the archives appear to be primarily about individuals being hired or stepping down from positions within the college. I wouldn't call this in-depth coverage.  I, Jethrobot  drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 06:58, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Merge, selectively to University of North Carolina at Charlotte, primarily the sections on degree offerings (with some additional references). Original research such as employeers who hire graduates should (and has been removed). RadioFan (talk) 17:55, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
