Citizens for Higher Education supports Davis

(Snow Hill, N.C.)–The Don Davis for NC Senate Committee anounces the support of the Citizens for Higher Education.

 ”I’m very pleased to get the support of the Citizens for Higher Education. After over 10 years in higher education as a lecturer at East Carolina University and adjunct instructor at Lenoir and Pitt Community Colleges, I understand the importance of higher education in North Carolina and especially, our University system in educating, shaping future leaders, and transforming our workforce,” Davis stated.

Citizens for Higher Education has more than 150 members who contribute dues of $2,500 a year. To build support for UNC-Chapel Hill and other research institutions in the system, the group backs candidates for state office who generally support public higher education.

Davis will face Republican Louis Pate of Wayne County in the general election on November 4.
