Construction at the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School’s expansion has progressed, with university leaders gathering with students on Friday to celebrate the latest construction milestone.

UNC hosted a “topping off” ceremony for Steven D. Bell Hall, which saw the final steel beam of the structure put into place high above the ground. Before a crane picked up and helped secure it into the building’s shell, the Kenan-Flagler community members gathered to sign their names and leave messages on the beam.

Kenan-Flagler Business School Dean Mary Margaret Frank spoke at Friday’s ceremony before the I-beam was lifted into place, saying she had her mentors from the school in mind as she signed the metal.

“UNC Kenan-Flagler gave me a network of mentors — both faculty, staff, and peers — that helped me to grow and become much more than I thought I could be,” Frank said.

“I look forward,” she later added, “to the opportunity for more people to have their own experience and extend that UNC Kenan-Flagler network [with this building.]”

Bell Hall, which broke ground in the fall of 2022, represents a major increase in space and resources for UNC’s acclaimed business school. The building will have 5,400 square feet for instruction, meetings, and events — including 16 flexible classrooms that will be equipped for hybrid and online teaching. Once complete, the business school expects to admit 50 percent more Carolina students to its undergraduate business program and will see all levels of students take classes in Bell Hall.
