2. Nice try, but ...
(1) The program in question was the Center for Promise and Opportunity, whose main purpose seemed to have been paying for Edwards's campaign travel, not the UNC Center for Poverty.

(2) Despite the website (which has no information past 2007) and the person you spoke to, the College For Everyone program at Greene High School is done, over, kaput, according to a detailed article in the Raleigh News Observer from this July:

" recently informed Greene County officials that he would end the pilot program at Greene Central High School. 'We sent a communication out to upcoming seniors and their parents," said Randy Bledsoe, principal of Greene Central High. "Some are saddened that the opportunity is not going to be there for their children. But we’ve had a lot of positive reaction over the years.'"
