Barry Murray

Peace and Conflict Studies
Mr. Murray received a Master of Arts in Conflict Resolution from UNCG in 2014. He attended the program while working full time for the City of Greensboro where he has worked since 1999. His commitment to the program was evident during his time as a student when he maintained an aggressive service learning profile, engaging in community activities on a voluntary basis.

One of his memorable initiatives, while a student, was to completely revise the Landlord-Tenant Dispute Program. Under his leadership, a formal structure and ongoing training process was developed contributing to the program’s effectiveness and sustainability.

This UNCG/City of Greensboro collaboration now stands as a model and has been extended to include Guilford College. Mr. Murray is also an active volunteer for the Greensboro Earthday Celebration, highlighting the role and value of recycling.
